THE SCAMS KEEP ROLLING IN

Just got this one, "From Kingsley." Even if I were a total fucking idiot I would have spotted this as utter bullshit:

Dear,

In a brief introduction,

I am Kingsley Ugwu (22 years) the only surviving son of late Dr. Anthony Ugwu. I am in possesion of some documents covering the deposit of US$7.3 Million (Seven million, three hundred thousand US dollars) which my late father deposited in one bank in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire. I have verified the transaction with the bank here and it's authencity is clear. This fund is of no criminal origin as it was realised from sales of the alluvial gold dust.

I am soliciting for your kind assistance in retrieving and claiming this fund from the bank here as my father's business associate and have it transferred to your account in your country for investment. You will also serve as the guardian to this fund as i'm not at all knowledgeable in the international business world. I will give you further details as soon as I hear from you, and we will discuss terms and percentage subsequently but you must treat highly confidentail.

I await for your response.

Best wishes

Kingsley

    Notice that Mr. Ugwu says he is the "only surviving son" of Dr. Ugwu.
    The other little Ugwus must've died of shame.
