Recently in my email I receieved this letter from a person calling himself "LEONARD SAVIMBI", stating that he was a nephew to Late General Savimbi am from the tutsi minority of
Angola but at the moment am in Accra Ghana. I find it so odd as it the email reads like a 1940's mystery novel. I almost expected Sherlock Holmes to walk in and start asking me questions.
I know this to be a scam. I felt that I needed to share it here because someone might not realize it is a scam.
Below is the body of the email I received:
