I received the following email via this mailing list and was asked bt 
the FBI to pass this info along to the list used as the conduit for the 
scam.

/* recvd email text follows */

Attn: Beneficiary,
Dear Sir,
 
Sequel to the secretive arrangement in 
regards of the shipment of contract sum, I wish to inform you that all 
necessary modalities have been automatically concluded and has left 
Nigeria to London via your Country by Express Cargo Flight. Note 
carefully the content of the crate is "MONEY" but I did not disclose it 
to the Courier Services as Money, rather I informed them that the crate 
contain Vital "DIPLOMATIC DOCUMENTS" belonging to my client (that's 
you). Furthermore, the weight of the consignment is 220kg but I manage 
to pay 120kg, which cost US$75,600.00. On no account should you 
disclose the content of the crate with the Diplomatic Courier Services 
for fear of betrayal. So do not allow them to know that the content is 
money. In the meantime, contact the Diplomatic! Courier Services on 
Tel: in London tomorrow to know the actual situation with the 
consignment and also give them your address where the consignment will 
be delivered and then get back to me as soon as possible so that I can 
give you the shipment document. Meanwhile,

I will be coming over to 
your country immediately the consignment arrives in your Country for my 
share. Contact them and get back to me. Congrats and remain blessed.

Best Regards, 
Dr.Alhaji Usman.

This is a scam! Of course everyone on this mailing list should be intelligent enough to know it is phoney, however; just in case...
