1) This is the security group for Internet Information Services, not
your email software.

2) Read up: http://www.scambusters.org/NigerianFee.html

3) Just in case you skip step 2, I have a large chest of gold bullion
that was "recovered" from a cave in Afghanistan. I cannot ship it to
myself due to suspicious men in turbans shadowing my home, but if you
will send me $1,000 in American Dollars... :)
