Nigerian Prince needs money

Have any of you ever got an e-mail where a prince or ruler or someone needs something for you like a bank account to wire money to or something to that extent with promises of fortunes in return?
I'm just getting a basic sense for an English presentation (wisdom vs ignorance) that I am doing in the form of a movie. Please be honest.

Also if someone has a copy of that e-mail I would really appreciate it if you could pm it to me. Thanks in advance

I've heard of that scam and actually got an email but it was many years ago.

Many years ago still counts.I mean if you got the e-mail at any point in time.

you mean like a "419 scam"?

LOL, yes the old I'm the blah blah for the late King blah blah, and if you can provide a bank account to set the money in for a while until so and so can take rule, we'll give you such and such amount.. yeah those were pretty hillarious emails. Unfortunately, a lot of people got "took", there was even an MNBC piece on it a few years back.

Unfortunately I throw them away after a month or so.

Samething for me, not after a month but right away.
