Still getting Nigerian 419 Fraud Email

I'm still receiving Nigerian 419 Fraud Emails. I thought they would just go away. Apparently they haven't been able to stop this.

If you want to know more, there's an old article at The Slate - The Nigerian Nightmare. This Nigerian Scam is, according to published reports, the Third to Fifth largest industry in Nigeria. There is info about this at the U.S. Secret Service Financial Crimes Division website, and at the 419 Coalition Website.

Oh, and the EMail is below if you've never heard of this before.

Subject: Your Consideration

I am an Attorney and close confidant of MRS. MARYAM ABACHA, the former first lady and wife of the late GEN. SANI ABACHA, the former head of state and commander in chief of the armed forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

She (MRS. M. ABACHA), has as a result of the trust and confidence she has in me mandated that I search for a reliable and trustworthy foreign partner, who will help receive some funds which she had in cash totaling US$45m (Forty Five Million United States Dollars Only) into a personal, company or any reliable foreign bank account for safe keeping for a short period of time, since her family bank accounts within and outside the country have all been frozen by the authorities. (I would refer you to the website of http://allafrica.com/stories/200203180074.html
http://www.time.com/time/europe/magazine/2000/27/swiss.html for further information about these money and the ABACHAS)

This money in question has however, been carefully kept in deposited with a securitycompany that has branches in Europe You may therefore be required to travel to the security company to collect the money on behalf of my client for safe keeping.

It may also interest you to know that she (MRS. ABACHA) and her family have, since the inception of the present democratic government, been placed under partial house arrest, with their international traveler's passports withdrawn pending the resolution of current fund recovery face - off between them and the present President RTD GEN. OBASANJO led Federal Government, which will still be in power for the next four years.

She has decided to offer anybody who will be willing to render this tremendous assistance 20% of the total sum, while 5% shall be set aside for incidental expenses.

Note that this transaction involves no risks whatsoever, as you will have no dealing with my Country, Nigeria. Rather, you will deal directly with the security company, which is based where the money is right now.
Let me have your
1. Full names
2. Contact address
3.confidential Tel/Fax Numbers

In your response to this proposal, I shall let you into a complete picture of this mutually beneficial transaction when I have received your anticipated positive reply. This matter should be treated as urgent and confidential. This is very important.

Your reply should be sent to my private mail address {musaabuchambers@lawyer.com}

Best Regards,
Barrister Musa Abubakar
