Ha Ha Ha. It's great to know that these Nigerian scams are not scams after all! I feel much better now that I know a US law enforcement agency is looking after the interests of Canadians. The RCMP still call this a scam. The mounties must be wrong eh!

Wow, now that puts me at ease!

They are getting smarter...slowly...and topping out pretty low, but getting there... they'll pull more people in with this.

Of course it is an FBI e-mail. Just read the fukkin' language. It is obviously written by someone with a high level of English proficiency. Scammers wouldn't write stuff like:

Like it says, it's confirmed to be hitch free from all ramification.

You misbelievers will be missing out on a golden opportunity to repatriate Nigerian moneys to their rightful owners and earn a handsome return re: same. It is a win-win situation in my books.

You doubting Thomases need not participate in my thread.

How does the saying go:
a fool and his money are soon parted...

I can't believe there are so many gullible (and greedy) people in this world...
