The following email was sent complete with an attachment that didn't open for me, regardless of whether or not the attachment opens, its a scam.

According to the IP, the email was sent from 41.28.5.71 South Africa (Johannesburg)*

Please note, it is never a good idea to open attachments from persons unknown

You have won $820,000! see attachment for details?
