Scam Money Transfer Emails:
Orphaned Rose Boniface,
the daughter of a very wealthy Gold/Diamond dealer in Freetown, the economic capital of Sierra Leone

Pity poor Rose Boniface. She says she is the daughter of "a very wealthy Gold/Diamond dealer in Freetown, the economic capital of Sierra Leone.", whose father was "poisoned to death by his close business associates in one of their outings on a business trip."  How sad.  Tragic, even. Wait; it gets worse.  Her mother died when she was 9.  (Oh, sob!) But there is hope!  Her father hid $11.5 million of "valuables" in a box in Spain! and then... tragedy again!  Her aunt and uncle "mal-treated" her and made her a meal of poisoned rice! Now, if you could only impersonate her father's business partner, she could get her "valuables" and pay 10% ($1.5 million!!!!)

Ok, let's cut to the chase: if you are an absolute moron, you might believe this.  We certainly hope not.  It is little more than an entertaining, but pathetic scam.

Key passages that are clues to the scam are highlighted, such as poor grammar, poor punctuation, spelling errors, the money comes from a dead person, blah, blah, blah.  The orphan needs an "honest foreigner" and has selected you, at random, to receive their millions for her!  Don't you feel special?
