The bit I like most is that at $4000 a day it would take over 10 years to claim the $15,000,000 in cash. It's almost like they've given up on the "too good to be true" trick of "all I need is for you to claim the funds and we'll split the money 50/50" and have instead added a little catch to keep it more realistic.

Also the EU Solidarity Fund is run out of a Yahoo address.


In China.
