My late husband had passion for persons who can not help themselves due to physical disability or financial predicament.When my husband was alive he deposited the sum of Three million dollars with in europe.
Presently,this money is still with the them Recently, my Doctor told me that I have limited time to live due to the cancerous problems I am suffering from.I have decided to donate this fund to you and want you to use 60% to fund the Charitable work. As soon as I receive your reply to assist me, I shall direct you to the bank who will release the money to you to start the charitable work, I will also issue you a certificate of deposit that will empower you as the original beneficiary of this fund.Hope to hear from you soon.please send all replies to my private address below: susancolelastwish@hotmail.com

I didn't think spam could reach such a low. I mean, I'm used to Nigeria and the countless other locations that have been used as of late, but... a dying wish? wow now that's low.
maybe these things have been awhile, but this is the first one of this type that has passed through my gmail spam filter and ended up in my mailbox. Other spam has too, but nothing of this caliber.

I see these all the time, they all have the same premise.

Someone who was very important/rich deposited funds to some bank account.
Their heir can't withdraw the money for whatever reason.
You are needed to withdraw the funds so that it can be shared/distributed someway.
You get to keep a large portion of the sum, but only after depositing funds into another account for some reason.

The stories always change, but it remains the same. You give us money so that you can get some big payout. Believe me, these people don't care how they get you to send the funds, as long as you do it.

I've never actually gotten one of these. If that's the real email address I think I might start up a new email account, then email it. I want a fake $3 million cheque to hang on my wall.
