I read about this Nigerian who died. They found $25 billion in cash in his appartment. Apparently he had been trying to give it away, but nobody would answer his emails.
Seems he had no heirs. Now some African bank official is looking someone to stand-in as the guy's heir. He's willing to split the inheritance, 40% for you and 60% for him. All you have to do send him $500 by Western Union so he can pay for a certificate of, "Good, clean, clear, and of non-criminal origin".
You have to be careful of scams, but if you get an email from Africa about some millions which could come your way in return for a small up-front fee, then you'd better check it out. You never know, the boxes of money might start arriving.
Hahahahaha
