So, I get the typical scam email of I got millions of dollars...you can have 20% if you help me get it out of the country...blah..blah. Here is my response which includes a link to an article about such scams:
Hey Mikey,

Then I got the following response today:
Dear Would J. Blowme,
I received your mail of which its contents were well noted:
I can understand and appreciate your careful approach towards this matter
which also gives me a little difficulties figuring out whether you really
want to assist my family is this transaction or not otherwise I will wish to
inform you that the said money is not in a check but in cash and still with
the security company where its has been deposited in a metal box by my
father.
So my dear Mr. Blowme, I want you to come straight with me cause this is not
a Childs play rather be specific with your decision as whether you really
want to assist my family in the release and transferring of the money out of
the security company and South Africa. It's not forceful that you must
assist any way but if you really want to do that for the family come
straight and provide me with your direct mobile and fax line so that I can
call and discuss further with you.
Regards,
Mike.
