I haven't seen that one before.
Last week I received several of the same type of scam letters but worded different:
"Hi, my name is Nicola Illicesku, and I am working for my government in Ministry of Interior.
I find your name on internet and have been told you are good and trustworthy person, I am placing my trust into you.
My colleagues and I have stolen 65M from my corrupt government and we require way to transfer money out of Bulgaria, will you please help?
We will trust you to hold this money for us, and in return for your trust and honesty, we will happily pay you 15% of the 65M for your services.
Kindly send me your bank account numbers so I can begin the transfer immediately.
Please don't tell anyone, must keep secret, and I will contact you at later date.
My sincere thanks, I must go now, they are coming.

If you contacted them, they would eventually ask you for either your bank account number (to transfer the money too) or some kind of administration fee for the process.
The giveaway for these scammers, apart from the overall crapness of the scam is usually the email address.
They claim to be from some kind of big corporation but usually have a hotmail or yahoo freebie.
If you want to see how to deal with these people, and have a laugh, go to the website www.ebolamonkeyman.com

GARKI ABUJA.
ATTN:HON.CONTRACTOR,
Compliment of the day,I am Prof Charles Soludo, The newly appointed Governor of central bank of Nigeria. I got your contact from the net during my personal search, after thorough deliberations, I decided to contact you for a very confidential business Transaction of mutual benefit.
Following the on going settlement of the long awaited foreign contract debt, during our verification exercise, we came across an over-invoiced Contract (Contract No:FMA/PED/1473/98).
This contract was awarded in July, 1998 and completed in August, 2002and the original contractor has since been paid leaving the over-invoiced sum of US$20.5m ( Twenty Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) This Amount has been left floating in the account with the federation bank, until my recent discovery.
I have decided to seek for the assistance of a Reliable foreign partner into whose account the fund will be transferred to for our own use. I wish to inform you that the payment is being processed and will be released to you as soon as you respond to this letter.
Please confirm to me the followings details.
1) Your full Name.
2) Phone, fax and mobile #.
3) Company name, position and address.
4) Profession, age and marital status.
As soon as this information is received, the payment
will be made to you in a certified bank draft from central bank of Nigeria and a copy will be given to you to take to your bank for confirmation. You should respond as soon as you receive this letter for a serious discussion with me.
Best Regards,
Prof. Charles Soludo
