They keep sending them out to people who don't have no money like me. And we end up talking about them exposing them. If they kept it to just greedy rich folk instead of phishing they would never be outted.

Dear Friend,
Compliments of the day ,it a bright and lovely day in Africa and many
good things comes in a day like this ,i am Lucas Tranie from the
Republic of Congo in Africa,son of Late King Tranie( The Morkola 1 of Natama
kingdom in Congo ).

There was a rebel attach on the palace due to the current crisis in
my country and my father was shot in the process which led to his death
3 days later.My mother and i where rescued by United Nations peace
keeping force and we where taken to their base.

Now the reason why i have contacted you is that,there is a
consignment containing thirty million United states dollars that was kept in a
security company in Ghana by my father and i have all the legal
documents to claim this consignment ,the problem is that i need a foreign
beneficiary ,who will help in claiming the funds, invest it and also i will
like to complete my Education in your country if
that can be arranged by you . My mother and i are now in Ghana and we
reside at the refugee camp because we lost everything to the crisis,this
consignment is all we have and our hope of survival.

In return for your assistance i am ready to part with 20% of the funds
in the consignment for any inconveniecies that this may cost you.Today
will make it the 10th day we arrived here in Ghana with the documents
covering the deposit and ownership to notify the Security Company for
the claims.

Note ,the consignment are kept as family valuables so the security
company does not know the content and i will like it stays that way for
security reasons .

I will be waiting for your urgent.

Regards and God bless you.
