This is the same scammer that sent me a money-recovery e-mail last month (click here) under the same disguise. Not very original is he?

Hi mbone and welcome :)

Hotmail address, Nigerian phone number and a mobile at that:
Information on phone number range +234 805XXXXXXX
Number billable as mobile number
Country or destination Nigeria

Coupled with the fact that nobody gives away any money to a complete stranger by email - it's a scam. It's just a lure to get people to pay 'fees'.
