Dear sir,

I will be happy to help, please send the money to my account, and I will 
be sure to pass it on.

Cheers,

John.

I've also received many emails like this in personal email address,
maybe several per day or more, and

I don't believe them at all!
I don't think some fool will really transfer money to my account or
your account,

It must be all cheating,

I've no idea how many get sent to me, but most don't get through the 
spam filter. This one did 'cos it came via the list, which improved its 
score considerably.

Nor do I. Perhaps my reply could have used some smileys but I thought 
the tone was dripping with sarcasm already!

Well if they're credulous enough to think I might fall for their scheme, 
aren't they credulous enough to go for mine?

> It must be all cheating,

That must be it.

Cheers,

John.

That's the problem with the world today.  Nobody trusts anybody!
This poor man must be getting desperate, with no-one willing to
believe him.

Cheers,
