| That should do it! 
 Here's one I got today, some very fine writing, I bolded some parts that were especially poignant:
 
 From:  "Rtd. Lt. Gen. Jeremiah Useni" <jeremiahuseni@myself.com>  [ Save address ]
 To:  kevin_watson@att.net

 Attn: Interested Participant for assistance
 
 Dear Sir/Madam,
 
 
 With references to the loot recovery drive of the Abacha family, I wish to use
 this medium to solicit for your utmost concern and total commitment as an
 International personality by virtue of your assistance, to fit in as a
 beneficiary for the motive of contacting you; and I repose every confidence in
 you that you will live up to great expectation for the actualization of this
 venture based on your involvement.
 
 
 
 Before I proceed on the details of contacting you, I want to formally introduce
 myself as Rtd. Lt. Gen. Jeremiah Useni, the former Minister of the Federal
 Capital Territory (FCT) during the Late Gen. Sani Abacha's administration: who
 was the Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Ruling Council
 of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. I am seeking for a worthy beneficiary from
 the international community to assist to claim the sum of US$12,000,000 which
 was lodged a long time ago wit h a Financial Security Company in Holland. The
 claim of this fund became necessary following a recent investigation mandated by
 the Federal Government of Nigeria to the Nigerian Interpol Unit and the State
 Security Service (SSS) to fish out all those linked with the high class looting
 of the nation's treasury during the administration of the Late Gen. Sani Abacha.
 
 (Not to be confused with these low-class 419 looters, of course)
 
 The ongoing investigations by the Interpol and following a court session
 indicates that over US$4,000,000,000 (Four Billion United States Dollars) was
 believed to have been looted from the nation's coffers and stashed away in
 foreign banks (in Europe and US) by the late Head of State and some of his top
 associates.
 
 
 
 The major reason for seeking for a worthy beneficiary like you (if you are
 interested) to claim this fund, is as a result of the report of the Special
 Investigation Panel (SIP) which indicted me in the treasury looting saga.
 
 (He's been indited for looting, but I think I can still trust him, right?)
 
 Meanwhile, I am contesting this report from the SIP through a court suit for
 allegations le veled against me concerning the Nation's treasury looting; and
 the Federal Government of Nigeria, through the Interpol are carrying out
 investigations into my assets in various foreign countries, where the said
 looted monies were lodged in my private accounts. With respect to the court suit
 for investigation, I am deprived from traveling abroad and I don't have access
 to my assets until the investigation is over to prove if the allegation against
 me is false. I can't afford to loose this money. So, for more details to this
 facts to prove the authenticity of this story and to affirm your commitment to
 assist, you can visit the internet for details; nigeriaworld.com with the
 Head line news: 'INTERPOL HUNTS ABACHA ASSOCIATES OVER LOOTED FUNDS'.
 
 
 
 This brings me to the necessity of claiming this fund so that it won't be
 recovered: following this hunt to recover monies believed to have been looted by
 me when I was the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). This will be
 made pos sible through processing of all necessary documents in your favour as
 the beneficiary to prove that you are the owner of the fund. Everything will be
 made possible through an arrangement with the protocol officer of the financial
 security company in Holland, so that it would be easier to be claimed without
 being noticed as belonging to me. This is just to boycott the prying eyes of the
 Interpol as it has spread its dragnets to various parts of the world mostly in
 Europe and USA to recover monies believed to have been looted by the Abacha
 associates.
 
 
 
 A foreigner is therefore deemed necessary for this claim on my behalf as I have
 advised to avoid any suspicion and trace. At the same time, a high level of
 confidentiality should be embraced to forestall any trace to recover this fund
 by the Interpol and the Special Investigation Panel (SIP). Also, I am being
 monitored seriously that is why I cannot communicate but every correspondence
 should go through my personal assistant Mr. Dennis Kuti. He is in a better
 position to oversee all this arrangement on my behalf. Please, do not border to
 reply if you are not capable of assisting and disregard this mail if you may
 receive it by mistake. For your compensation, we shall reach an agreement on the
 sharing percentage for your involvement to perfect this arrangement. There are
 no strings attached concerning any risk involved because all modalities have
 been put in place to guarantee your position to claim this fund without any
 difficulties.
 (Finally! The magic words! As long as all the modalities are in place, then everything will turn out just fine...)
 All correspondence should be by
 email.Alternatives:denniskuti@yahoo.com,denniskuti@zwallet.com. I hope to hear
 from you soon and please provide your full name and address and your direct
 telephone and fax number for communication purposes.
 
 
 
 Best regards,
 
 Rtd. Lt. Gen. Jeremiah Useni through Mr. Dennis kuti
