Urgent Help - viginie toure

Here's an email scam letter that is doing the rounds. It's one of those 'wealthy gold merchant dies and the relatives need a trusty person to help them cash it' type of emails. People must still be falling for the promise of millions of dollars and replying with their details or these people would give up.

Them emails can work in a variety of ways. In the simplest form, by replying you are confirming that your address is correct and that you respond to spam. Then the sender might try to convince you to send them money. Maybe to pay for the admin charges to set up the transfer. Maybe they send you a cheque drawn on a foreign bank and then ask you to send them some of the cash back before it's cleared - or bounced as it no doubt will. As it's from a foreign bank, and no doubt fake, it could take a while to bounce and leave you with banking expenses if the exchange rate changes.

Don't believe these emails. It's not really possible to make over $6million that easily. You will just end up out of pocket and receiving loads more emails.

Here's the text. No picture for this one, was just a plain text email.
