Lets say hypothetically I came across this letter addressed to someone else and I would like to know if there is anything illegal if this person it was addressed to were to agree with what they are asking or even if it is an illegal thing they're doing.

Here is the letter:

I am an Attorney and close confidant of MRS. MARYAM
ABACHA, the former first lady and wife of the late
GEN. SANI ABACHA, the former head of state and
commander in chief of the armed forces of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria.

She (MRS. M. ABACHA), has as a result of the trust and
confidence she has in me mandated that I search for a
reliable and trustworthy foreign partner, who will
help receive some funds which she had in cash totaling
US$35m (Thirty Five Million United States Dollars
Only) into a personal, company or any reliable foreign
bank account for safe keeping for a short period of
time, since her family bank accounts within and
outside the country have all been frozen by the
authorities. (I would refer you the website of TELL
WEEKLY MAGAZINE: http://www.tell.org. of November 23, 1998
page 25, for further information
about this monies and the ABACHAS.)

This money in question has however, been clearly moved
in defaced form and Deposited with a security company
that has branches in Europe

It may also interest you to note that she (MRS.
ABACHA) and her family have,since the inception the
present democratic government, been placed under
partial house arrest, with their international
traveler’s passports withdrawn pending when the
current fund recovery face - off between they and the
present RTD GEN. OBASANJO led Federal Government is
resolved, which from all indications will not exceed
this year.

She has decided to offer anybody who will be willing
to render this tremendous assistance, 20% of the total
sum.

Note that this transaction involves no risks
whatsoever, as you will have no dealing with my
Country, Nigeria. Rather, you will deal directly with
the security company, which is based where the money
is right now.

Let me have your confidential Tel/Fax Numbers in your
response to this
proposal.

I shall let you into a complete picture of this mutual
beneficial transaction when I have received your
anticipated positive reply.This matter should be
treated as urgent and confidential.

Best regards.

thanx i guess

Thanks. This letter actually was sent to a freemason. Do you think it is common that a Freemason would get these types of letters?

What's his address? I got a package land deal for $25 million. Freemason special: some swamp land in Florida and volcano land in Hawaii.
