People must be falling for this stuff because they keep sending these e-mails.  This one has a slightly different angle.  It's from "FedEx Redstar".  They cannot quote the content of the letter via e-mail due to privacy reasons.....but they CAN tell me that the contents include a bank draft worth $380,000 USD.
Gosh....makes me wonder what the letter says.  Oh well.  One of life's little mysteries I don't feel like solving right now.
