I suggest dowloading Mailwasher. This allows you to preview email messages.You canfilter and deleter rubbish like this before it arrives on your computer. You can "bounce" the offending msg back to the sender who thinks he has a nonexistent address. Problem solved. See www.mailwasher.net Good luck all. Patsy

I also get about 3 or 4 of these offers a week. I find it best to just delete unsolicited emails as if I reply the senders know that they have found a live address which can result in a flood of incoming Spam. Jim

I reckon it serves them right for being daft and greedy. You don't get 'owt for nowt'these days. If it looks too good to be true then it probably is!!!!

I've also had a few of these e-mails, don't even bother to read them now, just delete them. Did see an item on the news a few weeks ago saying that someone had sent money to one of them and lost it all! Maggy, West Yorkshire

I manage to get about three or four of this type of message each week. Usually mention Nigeria or Sierra Leone and one was Albania I think.

Hi Tina, I have also recieved these emails usually they say that their parents have been killed in Nigeria leaving them a lot of money but they cannot touch it so they ask us to help and they will give a percentage of it to us it is just ascam but people do fall for it, they then ask for some money to help them get at their millions, don't believe anything.

my daughter sent a message to trisha on tv(i didnt have a clue about it!)anyway she recieved an email from a guy drjude koko who works in a bank theres $14 milion dollars he will share with her (she must keep it secret)to cut a long story short,all she has to do is take it and put in into her bank then give them the details!i dont think so!!so glad she tells me everything and she's old enough to not belive everything she reads.but having said that i may well of done,he mentions a relative dying that could be the person im looking for.it comes from www.peoplesite.com so if anyone recives these letters i suppose you could light the fire with them!!
