Have you received a letter from Alice Sinko, claiming, in pathetically bad English, that she needs to give you millions of dollars from her father's diamond and gold mine? It is a scam.
If you contact her, you'll find all you need to do, to receive a huge cut of their immense wealth, is pay the taxes (or fee, or transaction charge, or demurrage, or whatever other fee they can make up) to release the money. And then they'll pay you the millions. Really! Absolutely! Just wait by your mailbox.
If you are a moron, that is...
Just another scam. Here it is for your entertainment. One of our site visitors kept emailing "Alice" just to waste the scammer's time and see how they'd respond. Here are the emails back from the scammer.
dear I am writting this letter with due respect and
heartful of tears since we have not known or met ourselves previously. I am
asking for your assistance after I have gone through a profile that speaks good
of you. I will be so glad if you can allow and lead me to the right channel
towards your assistance to my situation now. I will make my proposal well known
if I am given the opportunity. I would like to use this opportunity to introduce
myself to you. well,

document (DEPOSIT CERTIFICATE (US$10.5m)Ten million Five hundred thousand U.S
Dollars deposited by my late father in A SECURITY AND FINANCE COMPANY)which i am
the next of kin. Meanwhile,i am saddled with the problem of securing a
trust worthy foriegn personality to help me transfer the money over to his
country and into his possession pending my arrival to meet with him.
Furthermore,you can contact the company for
