Hopefully this got reported to Fraud Watch International. They keep track of the sources of Nigerian 411 spams like that one, and other types of course. If you do receive something like this via email, turn on long headers and forward it to for their action.

You can also see a list of the latest fraud and phishing attempts on their main page at - very handy if you suspect you've received a phish.

Please tell older folks (like myself, for instance *grin*), parents and grandparents who may be new to the net and unaware of the damage that fraud and phishing emails can do - help them get aware and stay safe. One of the most recent is an IRS refund offer that is warned about on the IRS website itself.
