COMPENSATION FOR YOUR PAST EFFORT!!! scam

everyone feels like they haven't been compensated properly for some work they have done in the past... Maybe that is why this scam fools people. Of course, if "Mr Anthony Goodluck" (love the last name) really had a check "in your name" then why would he address you as "friend" instead of using your name? and why would he want you to send him "your full name"


The scam email is below:
