Usually, I won't even bother, but the email was written in a very professional way and have tremendous amount of detail put in it. Here is snippet of the mail that I got....

It almost got me excited for about 10 seconds, but 1 million Euro is too far fetch and that made me to do a quick search on google. What I found was that this email is already registered as a scam on scamdex. And poof, there goes my vision of buying myself a 13k VIAO, a bangalow house and a BMW:)
So if you get this email too, don't get excited. Being gullible is not what you want when it involves money:)
