After a few blissfully quite days on the scam e-mail front, I received a rather poor attempt at a false inheritance identity theft/band details theft scam. If you ignore the implausibility of me being in line for a big inheritance from someone in America, there is also the question of why would someone be contacting me for something of this importance via a Yahoo Personals message?!
