 		Is this an ARG?
I recieved an e-mail on January 22, 2008. I just realized it was sent to me. I don't know if this an ARG and if it is, I don't know if it's to late to play. Pleas reply and let me know what you think Exclamation ! Well, here is the e-mail-

Dear Sir/Madam,

I greet you and your entire family and I pray that may the almighty God guard you and your family.

I am SAMUEL EYADEMA, the son of the late Ex PRESIDENT of TOGO in WEST AFRICA, but now live in SPAIN where I am under political asylum, I call you in respect of the Money my father deposited for me and my mother in SPAIN, becuase my mother was he?s secret girlfriend, I want you to assist me and stand as my foreign beneficiary to receive this Money in SPAIN, the Amount is ? 10, 550.000. Ten Million Five Hundred And Fifty Thousand Euros)

This money is in a box and was deposited as a very important family treasure.

Mr. JOSE-MARIA GOMEZ who was suppose to receive this consignment box in SPAIN, Was demanding for 50% which I and my mother disagreed,that was why we have to stop the delivery to him immediately and search for another Beneficiary who can help us on this matter.

For your assistance, I will give you 25% of the total fund involve.

Please keep this as a secret because my elder brother is now the President of Togo after our fathers death. That means he will claim the money from me and my mother if he knows about it, because my mother was not a legal wife.

please if you are willing to help us, kindly reply me for more details and a better explanation with this samuel_eyademaSPLAThotmail.com or call me on Tel: +34 693 242 078.

Thanks and God Bless.

Yours Sincerely
Samuel Eyadema.

 		There is also a thread stickied to the top of this forum where you can post emails such as this and see if it is spam or not, rather than make a whole thread.

Very Happy

 		Wow, I haven't seen one of those in ages.

Did anyone ever see that 20/20 (or was it Nightline) where they actually responded to the emails and ended up traveling to Nigeria and found the guy? I think they scam emails kind of died off a little after that.
