Nigerian Scams abound, is there no limit?

As long as there are people to fall for these scams, there will be people willing to take the money.

Not for nothing was it written that a fool and his (or her) money are soon parted. Oddly enough, many of those taken by these scams really ought to have known better.

Here is one I received on Friday, June 29, 2007: Note that the author is claiming to not know much about money, giving you the apparent advantage.
