Tempting... but not today.

I just received a Nigeria-scam email that makes this startling revelation:

Before his death, he has a huge sum of (US$25.5) which no other person knew about, he intended to invest in Southern part of Africa... If you are willing to assist me in this transaction, your compensation will be (20% )...

I hate to break it to you, dude, but $25.50 won't really get you very far here in America. And you're offering me a 20% cut, which is what, about $5?

Sorry, but I'm going to have to pass on this opportunity. My condolences on your loss, though.
