It's funny, I found a post/article quite a few years ago where someone acted as if they were interested in one of these scams. Had to be one of the funniest things I've read in a while. I'll see if I can't find it somewhere though it's been a few years.
 
Maybe we should all pool our resources :)

Personally, I'm thinking maybe we start an American version of this, with which we can start spamming our opportunistic friends in Nigeria and Ghana.

'Dear friend,
I was recently digging in my New Jersey backyard to replace my olympic-sized hot tub drain, when I found a oaken vessel bearing a letter from one of our founding fathers. Apparently, in return for supporting us during the great struggle of the American Revolution, our forebears promised Nigeria 0.5% of all future national revenues. My research shows that YOU are due a percentage of these funds, current value of which is in excess of $80 bazillion gazillion US dollars. US law requires that we return these funds to their rightful owners. Therefore, if you would simply provide me with a modest administrative fee of $3,500, I will with great haste transfer your birthright to your checking account immediately. Unfortunately, your administrative fees must be paid in cash - however, if you will also provide your checking account number and identification #'s, I will quickly make the transfer of your newly-gained wealth.

Today is your lucky day my friend.

your humble servant,

Joe Smith.

Sarge--that was supposed to be a private business deal between us--

Now I'll have to take it up with the 300 million other people that I privately submitted that proposal to.

This American Life did a story about this a while back. I highly recommend it. Hilarious stuff. :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:
