Amused
I was reading my junk mail and ran across this. I guess the Russians are getting in on the Nigerian scams:

Dear Friend,
Permit us to seek your attention in so informal a manner. I am ROLAND
WEHRLI, one of the accounts directors to MIKHAIL KHODORKOVSKY, the
richest man in Russia and owner of the following companies; Chairman
CEO: YUKOS OIL (Russian Largest Oil Company) Chairman CEO: Menatep
SBP Bank (A well reputable financial institution with its branches
all over the world). I seek your partnership in an urgent financial
business of US$28 Million. (Twenty Eight Million United States
Dollars) My Boss MIKHAIL KHODORKOVSKY was arrested in October 2003
for his involvement in politics and the financing of opposing
political parties (the Union of Right Forces, led by Boris Nemtsov,
and Yabloko, a liberal/social democratic party led by Gregor
Yavlinsky), which posed a treat to President Vladimir Putin's second
tenure as Russian president before he was re-elected On March 14,
2004. You can read more of this on the web sites below

The Russian Government Authority had already concluded plans to
freeze all the accounts in the name of Mikhail Khodorkovsky both
corporate and personal. However, in other to boost the investor
confidence in the Russian Economy also approved the payment of
millions of Dollars to all YUKOS OIL Contractors and suppliers. The
Fund US$28M involved was approved by the Russian Authorities as part
of payments to the various YUKOS OIL contractors/suppliers to prevent
them from loosing the money they invested in the numerous contracts
they executed for the above YUKOS. I had connived with the Accountant
General of YUKOS OIL (who is also my partner in this business) to
raise a memo stating that YUKOS OIL owed US$28M to a foreign
contractor. The Russian Authority finally approved this amount for
payment after some deliberations. Actually, we have paid all our
contractors both local and foreign because they agitated for their
payment when they heard that my boss was arrested.

YOUR ROLE:
We intend to present you / your company as one of the contractors we
owe so that you can stand as the beneficiary of the above sum
according to your financial strength or the strength of your company.
We will make all arrangements for the documentation, which the payee
bank will need to transfer the sum to your nominated account. We have
decided to use part of this sum to relocate our families out of
Russia due to the present insecurity we face. We cannot lay direct
claims to this payment, as we need to present a foreign person or
company to stand as the beneficiary. This business is safe and we
will be willing to reward you with 20% of the total sum for your
partnership. As soon as I get your willingness to assist us, and your
direct contact telephone and fax numbers, I will provide more
details. Thank you.
Best Regards

MR. ROLAND WEHRLI
