DESMOND ALI | Urgent Attention

This one is still doing the rounds, but it's changed since earlier this afternoon. Aside from changing the Title, the money asked for has reduced from $120 / $180 to $100 / $150. They must have thought their initial asking price too high! Also, the reply to email address has changed for some reason. Maybe the first guy was getting too many replies then saying it cost too much.

The other danger with this email is that the lower price is offered for courier delivery of a cheque - BACS is the higher price, even though companies prefer this. Therefore, I suspect that not only are they trying to rob us of the $100, but they will ask for that in the form of a personal cheque, along with full name and address to deliver their cheque to. All they would then need to ask is for your date of birth and they have got hold of enough information to clone your identity - full address and bank details off the cheque.

This version has also arrived through several email addresses. Not sure which ones and whether any of the earlier emails used the same addresses. Here's the ever so slightly changed content:
