I found this in my mailbox today:

Calvary Greetings In The Name Of Our Lord I am Mrs.Annete Mills,it is by the grace of God that this occurred knowing the truth and that the truth shall set me free,Heaven known's the truth,i had no choice than to do what is lawful and rightful in the sight of God for eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God's Mercy and Glory upon my life. My late husband DR.HANS MILLS deposited some money with a Bank when he was alive,I'm suffering from esophageal cancer am searching for a trustworthy person who will be the beneficiary of the fund and use it to finance Charity Organizations and help the needy families within Australia, Asia,America,U.A.E,Europe and other parts of the world my heart tells me that you can do this for me,do reply as soon as possible.
Regards,
Annete Mills.

I must confess that I didn't really understand the first 4 lines about truth. I am also not sure why this lady, who is supposedly suffering from cancer, not using this money for her own treatment. I am equally in the dark about why she cannot herself become the beneficiary rather than searching for some stranger.

I guess the days of the lottery scams are over and now the crooks have hit upon the idea of using religion as the brand ambassador for their work. God help us all!

BTW, any idea on why UAE is being listed separately and Africa has been unceremoniously described as "other parts of the world"?? :-)
