Hello,
I have amassed a rather large collection of Nigerian emails my self. It seems every other day another possible member of my family dies horrifically there in Nigeria. Train wrecks, car wrecks, heart attacks, cancer,etc... all together there have been around 200 people with the last name Roman die in the last 2 years. I used to make my own html interpol emails and send them some kind of scare tactic warning! But after reading your post I have just sent an email with a little influence Ross Perot style. I hope you enjoy it;
