Yes, she is absolutely, positively being scammed.
The Nigerian scams are the most well known and notorious ones.
You won't have to search much to find into about this on the web, and you should probably look at the FBI website too.
Talk her out of it. They're all the same. "we have money we need to get into the US, and will pay you a portion if you help us..." blah blah blah.

Of course she's being scammed, if the address in question is in Nigeria, which is the source of over 90% of internet scams. What on earth is your aunt doing being involved with a hospital in Nigeria ?

I am positive that your aunt is being scammed by one of those 419 type scammers. You might want to advise your aunt to delete emails from people she doesn't know.
She could also report the scammers, but I don't know how effective it is.
Take a look at this site, and email the link to your aunt, too:
