I sell Avon and some of the reps have been getting emails like this through our websites like this for a while.  Some of the reps have been forwarding the emails to their local police departments and the FBI.  This request sounds similar to what we are getting.  Instead of money they were asking for large amounts of Avon products.  They stem from Nigeria and surrounding countries and you can tell by the broken English.   And if the return email address is yahoo related you can forward it to yahoo because scams like this are against yahoo policy.  I wish these people would get a life and try to stop scamming people. 

The following is a copy of a note/post from abusyRN2 regarding this scam issue.  I had written to her about this situation and wanted to share her message. 

"I have received several messages about the above post, please please do not anyone send hard earned money to a stranger. Next I copied the message and sent directly to site owners, I also sent this person a warning message to stop this kind of inappropriate solicitations. I am sure I will here back by tomarrow as to what else can be done here, but do not accept the friendship from this person and I would not even respond back, thank you for all of you that brought this to my attention."  

FYI

I forwarded this letter to GBPrice, and she said that this person will be blacklisted from this site.  so by now, her profile should be gone! 

Look up the "Nigerian fraud" scam.  This is the wikipedia link.

You'll find the exact letter - or something close is used in most cases.  It's an old scam with an ever-changing face.

I actually received 2 of these emails and forwarded them to starlightrn!

I got it too!  I reported it to nursing link as well.  Now I'm hurt...............you all got it?  Geeeeeeez, and I thought I was special!

Yeah I got this too, but whats funny to me is when she states " my late husband deposited on my name before he die in a bank here in ivory coast please keep secret."  if is a secret, why are you posting it everywhere.
