Nigerian scam for Christians only
Just got this scam email. It seems they only want to scam "christians" now. Loved the ironic anti-spam tag at the end by Yahoo.

Here is the email in full:

From Mrs Judith Ellioth.
Dear KurtNYC,
I am the above named person from Nigerian but now undergoing medical treatment in London. I am married to Dr.Davis Ellioth Samueal, who worked with Nigerian embassy in South Africa for nine years before he died four years ago. We were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born again Christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.

When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of twenty-seven Million six hundred thousand U.S. Dollars with one faniance/security company in London. Presently, this money is still with the Security Company. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next three months due to cancer problem.That is why i came back to nigeria so that if it happan that i die it will know that i die in my country. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better still a christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in.I want a church or individual that will use this to fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.

The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not ChristianS and I dont want my husbands hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers. I donot want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner, hence the reason for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom of the Lord. Exodus fourteen verse foruteen says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I dont need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health,and because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I donot want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Finance/Security Company London. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the original-beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a church or christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hear from you immediately you read this mail. Send mail to my private Email:

BEST REGARD.
Mrs, Judith Ellioth.

1. Write her back and tell her.....
...that you have just been ordained as a Minister of the Sith. You were initiated by the Dark Lord of the Sith himself! Explain that the Sith are a mystical group dedicated to propagation of the Ministry of the Force. You are starting a chapter and would love to use the money to spread the Good Works of the Emperor of the Sith.

Keep her going. See if she bites. Ask her if she is willing to send you a money order as a sign of good faith.
