i couldn't even pronounce where he claimed he was from and said he had been left an inheritance and would share it with me if i helped him (yeah right) like I'm going to .we have enough foreign people in this country with out my  help

now they've got our email addresses they may send us lots of rubbish. If that happens we'll have to block mails from that email address, or if they change the name, maybe any email from yahoo.cn

I'd at least find out more about his god. For all you know it could be the god of vegetable growing which could come in handy.

These emails have been going round for years.  Best bet is just delete the email before opening it.  You can usually tell by the address that something is wrong :)

I've had exactly the same e-mail too!! I just reported it as a phishing scam to Microsoft, and hopefully that'll be the end of it.  :)

I get those stupid things all the time. just treat them as spam, which is what they are. Don't contact these people whatever you do.
