Scams Scams Scams

I wanted to pickup this money but the e-mail scam is not clear; I'm not sure if it is an inheritance or if it is contract funds. I would not want to take the money if it was for the wrong reason. This scammer should decide the reason for offering to send me this money. I firmly believe that any letter from an international bank in London would have used proper English. Another attempted scam! Another sign of the scam is the request for information by e-mail; another indicator iof thescam is that I supposedly have all this money coming to me but they don't even know my name. These scams by e-mail are becoming more prolific. I wonder if these scams are a sign that people are becoming more desperate and will attempt anything to get easy money. Or are these scams a sign that people are falling for them in the hopes of getting free money. I hope this is not true; I hope nobody is falling for these e-mail scams.
