HERE IN LONDON. I HAVE THE COURAGE TO LOOK
FOR A RELIABLE AND
HONEST PERSON
WHO WILL BE CAPABLE FOR THIS
IMPORTANT BUSINESS
TRANSACTION,BELIEVINGTHAT
YOU WILL NEVER LET ME
DOWN EITHER NOW OR IN FUTURE.
THE OWNER OF THIS ACCOUNT IS MR JOHN
HUGHES FOREIGNER AND THE
MANAGER OF
PETROL CHEMICAL SERVICE HERE IN
LONDON,A CHEMICAL ENGINEER BY
PROFFESSION AND HE DIED SINCE 1995.THE
ACCOUNT HAS NO OTHER BENEFICIARY AND MY INVESTIGATION PROVED TO ME AS
WELL THAT HIS COMPANY DOES NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ACCOUNT AND
THE AMOUNT INVOLVED IS (15,000,000.00)POUNDS STERLINGS.
I WANT TO
TRANSFER THIS MONEY INTO A SAFE FOREIGN ACCOUNT
ABROAD BUT I DON'T
KNOW ANY FOREIGNER,I KNOW THAT THIS MESSAGE WILL COME TO YOU AS A
SURPRISE AS WE DON'T KNOW OUR SELF BEFORE,BUT BE SURE THAT IT IS REAL
AND A GENUINE BUSINESS.I BELIEVE IN GOD THAT YOU WILL NEVER LET ME
DOWN IN THIS INVESTMENT.YOUR FULL CONTACT PHONE AND FAX NUMBER NAME
WILL BE NECESSARY FOR THIS EFFECT.

You know, I have this book, The Spam Letters, by Johnathan Land, in which this would fit wonderfully. I love the spelling errors, typoes, etc. that are rampant in such an unprofessionally written email.
It's right up there with "My Bitch Bettah Have Mah Money".
