If an e-mail is from someone in Nigeria, and claims that you have a large some of money waiting for you, it is usually a scam. If you doubt it, look up Interpool and call them. This scam is another in a long line of Nigerian email scams.This one is kinda fun, because they are claiming to be after the other scammers. The bad spelling, and poor grammar in this email is kinda funny.
