Re: Business proposal--yet another scam



Dear colleagues:

I regularly (though thankfully not frequently!!) receive via email
variations on the
Nigerian scam, including what I think is a new (to me, anyway) incarnation:
family named Edwards killed in automobile accident in Africa,
lawyer/solicitor
trying to locate relatives so the deceased family's $6 million dollar
estate can be
settled, etc. etc. .... I also received the same message intended for "Tim
Edwards",
I'm assuming the result of some sort of "wild card" email address.
Ever onwards (no, I haven't lost any relatives in a car accident in Africa)
