I got this today . . . from email address [email protected]
A whois on that domain says it's from Austrailia btw.

sir,madam

My name is Mr.Daniel Orezi, I am the chief auditor of a reputable bank here in Nigeria. I would want to use this medium after going through your profile to seek for foreign assistance in a business transaction which is of mutual benefit.

A foreigner late Mr. David perkins who is from United State, an Oil Merchant/Contractor with the Federal Government of Nigeria, until his death in a ship mishap, who banked with us at our Bank and had a closing balance of US$21.5 million which the bank now expect any of his available next of kin to claim. To this regards, I have been directed by the board of Trustees of the bank to notify the deceased next of kin, which i have done and found out that he has no next of kin.which means that this funds will be lost to the government, which we all know will be stolen .

In order to avert this development, myself and some of my trusted colleagues in the bank now seek your indulgence to have you stand as late Mr. David perkins´s next of kin so that the fund will be subsequently transferred and paid into your foreign account. On indicating your interest,all documents and proofs to enable you get this funds will be carefully worked out and we are assuring you a 100% risk free transaction. You will be allowed to retain 30% of the total amount after the transaction. If this proposal is okay by you, and you wish to take advantage of the trust bestowed on you, kindly contact me with this e-mail address ([email protected]) to enable me furnish you with relevant details to this transaction.

Best regards,

Mr.Daniel Orezi

.fr usually stands for france, as evidenced by the french at the bottom of the email. I wish we could put all those scammers in front of a firing line.
