    What do you think of the email
    Dear Beloved,

    My name is Mrs. Christine Bradley Wiseman. I am a dying woman who has
    Decided to donate what I have to charities through you. You may be
    Wondering why I chose you.

    But someone has to be chosen. I am 59 years old and was diagnosed for
    Cancer about 2 years ago, after the death of my husband who had left me
    Everything he worked for. I have been touched by the Lord to donate from
    What I have inherited from my late husband to charity through you for the
    Good work of humanity, rather than allow my relatives to use my husband's
    Hard earned funds inappropriately.

    I have asked the Lord to forgive me all my sins and I believe he has,
    Because He is merciful. I will be going in for an operation, and I pray
    That I survive the operation. I have decided to Will/Donate the sum of
    8,000,000.00GBP (Eight Million Great Britain Pounds sterlings) to charities
    Through you for the good work of the Lord, and to help the motherless,
    Less rivileged and also for the assistance of the widows.

    Presently, I have informed my consultant about my decision in willing this
    Fund to charity through you. I wish you all the best and may the good Lord
    Bless you abundantly, and please use the funds well and always extend the
    Good work to others. If you are interested in carrying out this task, I
    Will inform my consultant, so that he can arrange the release of the funds
    To you. I know I have never met you but my mind tells me to do this, and I
    Hope you act sincerely. I decided that 30% of this money should be taken
    By you from the total sum upon the success release of this fund, because I
    Am now too weak and fragile to do things myself because of my cancer.

    NB:I sincerely know that a lot has been written about some SCAM coming out
    Of the world, but I assure you that this will never in any way associated
    With that as you will be given the right to verify this directly with the
    Bank were the funds is presently deposited.

    I will appreciate your utmost confidentiality in this matter until the
    Task is accomplished, as I don't want anything that will jeopardize my
    Last wish, because I do not want relatives or family members
    Standing in the way of my last wish.


    God bless you and your family.

    Mrs. Christine Bradley Wiseman.

    This is a total scam similar to the Nigerian scam.

    If someone worth 8 mil wanted to give away their money, they would create a will. If you respond, the next step is for them to ask for your bank account info so they can transfer the funds to you and then they raid your account.

    Don't EVER give out personal/business information and passwords to an email request.

    This is a very obvious, very badly written scam letter.
