Have you received an email from "Miss. Hilda Williams", who says
"I feel good contacting you today I have read from your add in Internet knowing quiet well that this contact will bring a lasting relationship.With regard to your reputation and who will not disappoint me nor deny me in faith, I am directing this letter of assistance to you. I am Miss Hilda Williams the only daughter of Mr.Don Williams from Republic of Zimbabwe..."?
And what follows is a convoluted sob story of one misery after another, along with a healthy dose of gibberish, spelling errors, terrible gram, syntax and punctuation, not exactly befitting an extremely wealthy person. And now, poor bereaved "Miss. Hilda Williams", needs YOUR help to provide a personal / company's bank Account where this amount here (US$20.M) can be Transferred.. Odd that they'd pick a total stranger, in a foreign country to trust their money to, don't you think? And if she's in Spain, then why is she writing from an email address in Poland? (o2.pl)
Of course, it is a scam. Don't reply to it.

My father was a wealthy Gold/Cocoa merchant who has business in manycountries in Europe, America and Asian countries.According to my father, my own mother Died when I was about six years of age, which means that I did not even know my mother very well.

But when he was about to die, he called us beside his sick bed and told us that he deposited the sum of Twenty million United State Dollars (US$20.M) with a Security company here in Madrid, Bortega Security Company Madrid Spain.
This money was kept for us in my name, his only daughter. Right now I am a first year student of business management in one of the University here.My only problem now is that since my father has been poisoned to death by his business ssociates, I don't even trust any other person here again including my father's brothers and sisters.

3)You are going to procure admissions for us to continue our studies in one of the known university in your country.
4) You are going to receive 30% of the total sum for providing a bank account for this transfer.
5) That you must prepare immediately to make a working visit to Madrid Spain here so that me and you can see each other and we can then do the transfer at the same time and I will go back with you to your country.
