Hello, I am Miss Young. I received the following email. It is a socalled "Advance Fee Fraud" letter, where I am promised millions for my assistance. These stories are all lies, and if I respond, sooner or later I will be asked to pay a fee. If I pay, another fee will quickly come up, and it will continue that way until I give up or run out of money. I will never see the millions, because they never existed.

have lost their money through any online transaction with Africans as a 
result of Scam activity. It has come to our notice that many of you have 
lost your money by falling victims to such Scammers and other related 
online transaction/business. Victims are given lots of complains and 
report to the United Nation.

Now UN have decided to give each of every one of you the sum of EUR 
1,000.000.00 euros to pay all your debts and start a new business and 
forget any form of online transaction. This is the reason why Kofi Anna; 
the formal secretary-general of the United Nation organized this 
Monitoring Institution, just to regain the image of Africa nations. For 
this reason, we the United Nation Monitoring Institution has taken upon 
ourselves to settle these very bills, because of the dubious attitude of

their dear leaders & governments.
