    Hello. A few days ago I received this spam letter that was so ridiculously unbelievable that I feel that I must share it with the world.

    Seems Legit.

    Actually, I never saw a spam email that offers 11 million and expects you to return the money. Also remember, it definitely isn't stolen and has no legal risk.

    Seems legit. I don't even have a facebook account. Though, how did this make it through my spam filter?

    They always offer you money or prescription drugs. I tend to get mails where they want to sell me super exclusive prescription drugs at crazy cheap prices and directly imported from Canada! Wow! How tempting, too bad I already live in Canada. Lol

    For whatever reason, I rarely get spam mail these days, and when I do it's usually from an actual company and not just some individual trying to scam me.

    Call off the "greatest e-Mail ever" awards. A clear winner has emerged this early in 2013.

    $2.500,000.00... you know it's serious if they use a lot of commas and points in random places.
