Scam emails: MRS WALTER SISULU, THE 72 YEAR OLD WIDOW OF ELDER STATEMAN

Scam Money Transfers
Example 14 - Scam emails: Mrs. Walter Sisulu, Widow of the Late Africa Freedom Fighter

This one is rather entertaining.  The author tries name dropping ("a friend of Nelson Mandela") and pompous titles ("elder stateman", "freedom fighter"). Of course, there is no "Mrs. Walter Sisulu"; just another 15 to 45 year old scummy Nigerian man trying scam you.
