Do you remember getting an email from someone in Nigeria (or another place) saying they were in charge of some estate worth millions and wanted to send it to you.
For your service you would get to keep several million dollars.
It has evolved to now it’s being sent as a friend request on Facebook.
Here is the one I received:

First…don’t try to con me. I’m the original pessimist when it comes to something for nothing.
Second…learn English! Your writing is appalling and makes your effort less credible.
Third…Why don’t you send me a certified letter via USPS? You could enclose my check in the envelope.
Fourth…I’m pretty smart. I figure if your name is Anna and you are 23…then you’re a young girl.
Fifth…it’s your inheritance. Why don’t you just transfer it yourself to an offshore account in Barbados and them move there…or any place else for that matter!
Sixth…your dad died mysteriously? With your mother? Please explain mysteriously!
And lastly…I’m a Christian.
I am called to be a good steward of what God has entrusted to me.
And one of the things He entrusted into my safe keeping is ME!
My identity is part of my stewardship of God. I need to keep it safe!
Let a man so consider us, as servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover it is required in stewards that one be found faithful. 1 Cor 4:1-2
Hee, hee, hee, I’ve gotten those also, and hit Delete when I see the subject in my email list. Thanks for the larger font! It really makes it easier to read:)
Blessings to you today as you fill 4 shoes, LOL!
