ATTENTION: OUR HONORABLE CONTRACTOR,

Whoever wrote this incomprehensible bit of rubbish a) doesn’t speak English very well and b) appears to have swallowed a dictionary.

If you really are an “honorable contractor” expecting payment from Nigeria then I am sure you won’t be taken in by this scammer.

If you aren’t expecting payment from Nigeria, then why are you reading this – you don’t really think that someone you’ve never heard of would send you a random email offering to pay you for work you haven’t done?

This is a scammer, hoping to take money from you by charging you fees.
