This just popped into my inbox:
Dear Beloved in Christ,
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ,having known the
truth,I had no choice than to do what is lawful and right in the
sight of God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness
of God's mercy and glory upon my life.
I am Mrs.Melissa Pointer the wife of in the Mr.Harry Pointer,my
husband worked with the Chevron/Texaco in Kenya for twenty years
before he died in the year 2001.We were married for twenty-seven
years without a child. My Husband died after a brief illness that
lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born again
Christians.Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child
outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against. When my late
husband was alive he deposited the sum of US $3.5M. (Three Million
Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars) with a Bank in Europe.
Presently, this money is still with the Bank and the management
just wrote me as the beneficiary to come forward to sign for the
release of this money or rather issue a letter of authorization to
somebody to receive it on my behalf if I can not come over.
Presently, I'm in a hospital in Kenya where I have been undergoing
treatment for esophageal cancer. I have since lost my ability to
talk and my doctors have told me that I have only a few weeks to
live. It is my last wish to see this money distributed to charity
organizations any where in the World.Because relatives and friends
have plundered so much of my wealth since my illness, I cannot live
with the agony of entrusting this huge responsibility to any of them.
Please,I beg you in the name of God to help me Stand and collect the
Fundsfromthe Bank.
I want a person that is God fearing that will use this money to
fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word of God
and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.
The Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will
inherit this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and
I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be misused by
unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in
an ungodly manner.Hence the reason for taking this bold decision.
I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that
I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that
the lord will fight my caseand I shall hold my peace. I don't need any
telephone communication in this regard because of my soundless voice
and presenceof my husband's relatives around me always.
I don't want them to know about this development. With God all things
are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the
contact of my attorney who is in Europe, as he will be the one to
assist you in laying claims for this funds.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs.Melissa Pointer.
It's a damn shame that it's not real -- I'd be tempted to take the money and run with it

This would make her FUNDamentalist, right?
I never answered it. I wonder if people ever do. I mean, c'mon, it's not like there's a faitholympics to decide who's the most godly person in the world to send my money to. And if there were, would you know if you'd won, so you'd know how they got your name?
(And if you did win, would COMPETING over it disqualify you automatically?)
*sigh*
Dear ChildOfGod.
I will be happy to take that money off your hands and sanctify it by pouring

"HUMAN! Great opportunity for you!"
How can you not read intergalactic spam? Here's finally a chance to rise above my entire puny species and take my wealth to a whole new cosmic level.

It would be funny to watch those that are experienced in stringing 419-SPAMers along on this one. How would the originator explain going past a few weeks (which we all know it would, if it was in the right hands)? A "miracle" perhaps? Heh.
