[Emphasis added below]

Greetings!

I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirm able Bank Draft of $800.000.00 United States Dollars, but I did not hear from you since that time.
Then I went and deposited the Draft with FEDEX COURIER SERVICE, West Africa, I traveled out of the country for a 3 Months Course and I will not come back till end of May.
What you have to do now is to contact the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE as soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you because of the expiring date.
For your information, I have paid for the delivering Charge, Insurance premium and Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque showing that it is not a Drug Money or meant to sponsor Terrorist attack in your Country.
The only money you will send to the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE to deliver your Draft direct to your postal Address in your country is (191.00 USD) Dollars only being Security Keeping Fee of the Courier Company so far.
Again, don't be deceived by anybody to pay any other money except 191.00 USD.Contact Person: Mr Frank Williams
Email: fedex-customerservices-uk01@live.com
Telephone: +234-703-322-7410

Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your Name.........................
Postal address..............
Phone number.............

to them again to avoid any mistake on the Delivery Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to pay them their Security Keeping fee of 191.00 USD for their immediate action.
You should also let me know through email as soon as you receive your Draft.

Yours Faithfully,
Mrs. Sharon Cole.
I am about 25% sure of this.

You and I are on the same mailing list as the last one I received also included the FEDEX stuff. I still wonder if FEDEX knows about these scams.

That's very reassuring!

But I guess all these special fees are why they have to use special couriers instead of just dropping that bank draft in the mail. :roll:

I received the same note.

Now I don't feel as special.
