The Following E-mail is Suspected of being circulated in an effort to Steal Identities from people. I have already reported it to the FBI. But we all need to be looking out for these things.
THE E-MAIL FOLLOWS:

Dear Friend,
It is with hope that I write to seek your help in the context below.
I am Hajia Mariam Abacha, wife of Nigeria’s former head of state; Late
General Sani Abacha, whose sudden death occurred on the 8th of June
1998. Since my husband died, I have been thrown into a state of utter
confusion, frustration and hopelessness by the present civilian
administration. The security agents in the country have subjected me to
physical and psychological torture. My son (Mohammed Abacha) is
still under detention arraigned before the federal high court of
Nigeria for an offence he did not commit. As a widow that is so
traumatized, I am hopeless with my present faith. You must have heard
over the media reports on the recovery of various sums of money
deposited by my late husband with various security firms. Some
companies willingly gave up their secret and disclosed our money
confidently lodged there, or many, outright blackmail. Infact the total
sum discovered by the government so far is in the tune
of $700 Million USD and they are not relenting to make me poor for
life. I came in contact with your name and address through my personal
research and would want to have faith and confidence in you as I view
you to be a responsible personality.
I have no doubt about your capacity and goodwill to assist me in
receiving into your custody( for safety) the sum of $40.3 Million USD
willed and deposited safely in my favour by my late husband. This money
is currently kept in Safe Deposit Box (SDB) at a security
firm within Europe. As it is legally required, the administration of my
late husband’s property is under the authority of the family’s
Lawyer(Attorney)Barrister Abdulrahman Bubatrafa(SAN).
The investigative teams set up by my government have submitted their
report after freezing almost all our account. Fortunately, our family
lawyer had secretly protected the personal will of my husband from the
notice of the investigators and have strictly advised that the $40.3m
USD be urgently moved to an overseas account of any trust worthy but
ANNONYMOUS foreign family friend without delay, for security reasons.
All our traveling papers have been seized by the government thereby
preventing us from traveling and all the local and international outfit
of our business empire seized. This sum of money is our only hope to
stay alive.
I have therefore agreed to compensate your goodself with 30% of the
total deposit when you finally recieve the deposit box from the
security firm and its contents safely lodged in your account. They
have equally guaranteed 100% risk-free and smooth transfer. If you are
interested in assisting me,please reach me immediately or send to me
your confidential telephone and fax number(s) so that I can reach you
as soon as possible.
For obvious security reasons, it is imperative that you keep all our
communication very secret. Do not mention my family,s name or disclose
the transaction to anybody. If you are not interested in assisting
me,still get in touch so that I can make alternative
arrangement as time is of the essence.Please do not expose me to my
government.
Regards,

Hajia Mariam Abacha
