I received this today, tell me what you think


Hello,

I am Mr.Mark Morris presently working with the Financial Service
Authorities United Kingdom(FSA). I have urgent information which you might
find very useful. Following investigations carried out by my office,I have
discovered that there are some long overdue payment presently here in the
United Kingdom yet to be claimed. These funds have been processed in your
name and should be released to you ASAP as directed by financial
instruments but we are realizing that the earlier documents validating
this sum was re written or altered.

Furthermore, we received an email from one Paul Miller who told us that he
is your next of kin and that you died in a car accident couple of months
ago.

To enable me confirm the status of the information I have for you, I need
you to confirm the account information below, as this is the destination
we have for the funds processed in your name and the transfer should be
effected by Monday 10th January 2011 13:00 Hrs.

Bank Details:
Credit Union Australia
545 Kent Street
Sydney
New South Wales 2000
Australia
Phone: 133 282
International +61 7 3295 9400
Website: http://www.cua.com.au
Account Name: Paul Miller
Account:
804 - 050 - 30820226
Swift Access Code:CUSCAU2SXXX

We want to hear from you before we can make the transfer to confirm if you
are dead or not.And to also know if you authorize the transfer of your
funds to the account mentioned above.

When I hear from you, then I can put my investigations together and make
conclusions but from what I have here it seems as though your financial
entitlements in the United Kingdom is being redirected for personal
interest by illegal means and you will aid us by giving me a brief on your
dealings when previously trying to process release of your funds.

Kindly get back to me on my e-mail address: epost1960@live.com

And please keep this confidential to enable me work effectively in your
favour, when I hear from you, I will prove my personality to you so as to
satisfy your worries and to be at liberty to furnish me required
information.

Regards,
Mr.Mark Morris

Step away from the email.

If it was a legitimate situation and you were being contacted about a matter with such potential importance, it is unlikely that they would email you rather than sending you a letter. Also, whilst it is not difficult to setup an email account incorporating the name of your bogus company (joe.bloggs@wesendyoudeadpeoplesmoney.com) I would always be wary of 'important' emails from live.com/hotmail.com etc.

Anyway, it is nice to see someone getting creative and deciding maybe mentioning Nigeria isn't going to get the best results anymore.
