Received this in my email (along with other 'undisclosed recipients'), addressed to: Dear, I am honourably seeking your assistance." Note that my name is missing...this is important for later.

Dearest, One
Permit me to inform you of my desire of going into business relationship with you. I contacted you after going through your profile, I prayed over it and selected your name among other names due to its esteeming nature and the recommendations given to me as a reputable and trust worthy person that I can do business with and by the recommendation , I must not hesitate to confide in you for this simple and sincere business .
I am Marian Kunter the only child of late Mr. and Mrs.Mathias Kunter. My father was a very wealthy cocoa merchant in Abidjan , the economic capital of Ivory coast, my father was poisoned to death by his business associates on one of their outings on a business trip.
My mother died when I was a baby and since then my father took me so special.
Before the death of my father on october 2008 in a private hospital here in Abidjan he secretly called me on his bed side and told me that he has the sum of Ten million, five hundred thousand United State Dollars. USD ($10,500,000.00) left in a security company here in Abidjan, that he used my name as the only daughter for his next of kin in depositing the funds. He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned by his business associates but I suspect his brothers, That I should seek for a foreign partner in a country of my choice where i will transfer this money and use it for investment purpose such as real estate management or hotel management .
Dear, I am honourably seeking your assistance in the following ways: (1) To stand as a guardian of this fund since I am only 22years. (2) To make arrangement for me to come over to your country to further my education and to secure a resident permit in your country.Moreover, Dear, i am willing to offer you 15% of the total sum as compensation for your effort/ input after the successful transfer of this fund into your nominated account overseas.
Furthermore, you indicate your options towards assisting me as I believe that this transaction would be concluded within four (4) days you signify interest to assist me. Anticipating to hear from you soon.
Best regards,
Marian Kunter
My God, I'm honored that I was selected from a whole list of other unnamed people, AND prayed over, just so I could received this utterly personal message addressed to no one in particular. It's flattering that Marian (marian_962@msn.com) here contacted my pseudonym--you know, the name of a person I invented. Gives it that special touch.

I hear Marian was the second cousin once removed of Leon Sumbitches aka Brian Wheat.

BTW, I sent back a damn-near identical (thanks to copy and paste) letter to Marian expressing my interest in forming a business deal; except that my father, "...was a very wealthy Coca-Cola merchant in Detroit, the economic capital of nowhere."

Hmm, could have used a little more (

He said it already - he's got the calling. :)
Why does she keep calling you dearest and dear, Queue - is there something you're not telling us here?
