And notice the warnings? This was received with Internet Explorer and the little warning notes did not show up until I cut and pasted it into the posting box.

WARNING: This e-mail is a suspected phishing scam. That should be the clue. If you continue with this scam it's going to "flounder"

It's certainly minimalistic. I've never seen it before. The poor English is a nice touch, as is the idea that capitals make your words important.

This spam has zen. It is so perfectly imperfect that it is like staring into nothing at all, and if you stare long enough into the abyss the abyss stares back at you.

Sadly it's not a unique work of art.

Re: Anyone gotten this e-mail?

Dear Friend,

I Am Mr. Davis Fred The Manager of Bills And Exchange at the Foreign Remittance Department in a Bank. Actually, I have a very urgent & confidential Business Proposition for you & for our overall mutual interest. On the 6th of March 2001, our Customer, An American National, late Dr. Paul Ambrose, a senior clinical advisor with the Office of the Surgeon General AND an Oil Merchant / Contractor with the Federal Government of Nigeria, deposited, a valued amount of USD5 Million in my branch. Upon maturity,I sent a routine notification to his forwarded address but got no reply.

After a month we sent a reminder, & finally we discovered from his contract employers NNPC, that late Dr. Paul Ambrose ,until his death eight years ago in a ghastly terrorist attack to American Airlines Flight 11, from Boston, Massachusetts, to Los Angeles, California, crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center (WTC) with 86 people on board. All occupants of the Aeroplane unfortunately lost their lives. On further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his Next of kin were fruitless.

I therefore made further investigation and discovered that late Dr. Paul Ambrose,did not declare any Next of kin in all his official documents. This sum USD5Million is still floating in the bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will come forward to claim it. According to Nigerian Laws, at the expiration of 8years, the money will revert to the Ownership of the Nigerian Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Consequently,my proposal is that i will like you as a foreigner to stand in as a Next of kin of late Dr. Paul Ambrose, This is simple. All I require is your honest and co-operation to enable us see this deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law. I will want you to send to me on your return email the following information for the transfer in your favour.

1.Your full names as the Beneficiary of the Fund:
2. Your contact address:
3.Your private phone and fax numbers:
4.Your Sex.......

Let's consider that our ratio of sharing will be as stated Thus;

1. I as the riginator of the Fund will take 50% of the transferable Fund.
2. You as the Manager of the Fund will take 50% of the transferable fund.

Most importantly, CONFIDENTAILITY as what I saw as the life wire to the success of the transfer of this Fund must have to be emulated between you and me.

You have to use this media to promise me that you will not in anyway expose the content of this transaction to anybody be it your Friends, Colleagues and Co-Workers.I will also want you to send your reply to this email: davisfred001@walla.com as soon as you get this mail to enable us discuss on the modalities and processes for success of this transaction.

Thanks for your anticipated cooperation and understanding.
I wait for your kind response.
Thanks And Remain blessed.
Mr. Davis Fred
