Hi Sidney could be a scam. Have they asked you for any private details? Sometimes these people ask for a smallish payment for administration costs and either they run off with your money or they have then got your bank account details. Be careful and don't give them any info if it looks dodgy. Sandra

Just on the Nigerian scams I was watching a tv program (click TV or something) the other night and it reported that some people have made contact with the scammers and flown out to Nigeria to collect the money..... They were beaten up and robbed. I kid you not. Bob
