Can I automatically delay sending all outgoing email?

Has anyone receive a email like this and is this for real?

  • I read you and understood you very clearly. I am the Minister of Finance here in Nigeria. Our Government in Collaboration with the United Nation is compensating those that have been in one way or the other, victims of scam in the passed years and your email is one. I am aware of Mr. Kingsley Smith been one of our Agent to make sure that funds are been delivered directly to beneficiaries like you. Let me make very clear to you beneficiary and Point of correction I am not requiring you to pay any EXTRA MONEY to me or anybody ,you are required to pay for the delivery of your funds through the courier Company here, to your home address. I am the minister of Finance, since you are a benefactor, we are very much willing to send your funds to you as directed by our government/United Nation, and there is noting to work out rather than you following our due process, for the delivery of your funds to you. All our agents have been cushioned not to go contrary to our policies by negotiating means of benefits from beneficiary in respect to their fund that is why we appointed God fearing men and women as agent in our compensation office. So do not expect any of our agent or me to do anything contrary for as to benefit from your funds. Please follow our due process, Contact your agent, Mr. Kingsley Smith to give you the modalities and mode of payment to the courier Company so that your said funds can be delivered to you in a timely manner. Note: There is no much time for delay, if you are not interested in your funds send a LETTE of REFUSAL you me or your agent. If you receive you fund send a confirmation letter of funds receive to me. The attached File that I sent previously is resent again (Check the attached file) I await your response on the subject matter. Yours faithfully, Dr. Mansur Muthar. ofr Honorable Minister for Finance I also receive emails before this one asking me to send $220.00 to pay for the sending fees then I would receive a check for $900,000.00.

I receive e-mails like that all of the time, and if you can help it, don't open the e-mail and certainly don't respond. They're all fake e-mails and I don't care how much they offer you; don't give them your financial information. What happens is they'll say something like "Before I can send you money, I need you to send over $__________.00 and then you will receive like $5,000,000". Well, you'll send the money, and they won't send over a single cent. Or they might send you a check for thousands of dollars but when you go to cash it, the bank finds out it's fake, and then you end up owing the bank that amount plus more and possibly get jail time.

are people that naive, of course this is not real. Why would you have to send money for anything? If there were fees they would be subtracted from the amount owed, you never pay upfront. There is no such thing as a UN compensation. You shouldnt open emails from people you dont know, they often contain viruses and malware that infect your computer and access your address book. Delete this and do not send any information. Because you opened it, the scammers know your email address is active so be prepared to receive even more of these scams
