This was recieved by a love-scam victim today, her scammer has passed her information on or is trying a new angle himself.
This is just another version of the money recovery scam to try and squeeze the last few drops out of the teapot!!
There is such a thing as the EFCC, but they would not contact victims out of the blue, and would certainly not be using a free email service such as this one from Mail.com.

xxxxxxxxxxx,
My name is Martins Kunle and Im a special representative working with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Nigeria.
The aim of the EFCC is to help provide support, guidance and assistance to victims of fraud. We are aware of the circumstance under which people fall prey to these crimes- quit often it is out of the simple, human desire to have a second income, or to help a charity or in form of a romance scam. It is not always blind, mindless greed that causes fraud victims. We care- we have seen hard cases before and we always try our possible best to look after them. We know- we co-operate with the Police forces all arounf the world and can guide you to the right people to report your case. It is highly unlikely that any losses you have suffered would be recovered.
Secondly we aim to educate people about fraud on the internet, in all its manifestations. If people are educated about fraud, the fraudsters and scammers would not have the victims to finance their criminal activites. Be in no doubt- there are crimincals out there right now planning their next fraud on you. At the last estimate in 2003, there are estimated to be around 300,000 professional scammers operating out of africa alone, generating over 5 billion scam emails. This is a proble we can fight only with education. You can also help us by educating yourself so that you can educate your family, your friends, your colleagues, every bit helps us all beart this insidious modern crime. We have news items, articles, links, everything you need to help yourself and those you care for.
It is my due pleasure to inform you that we have recieved a report from the Western Union Agent location here in Nigeria about a money laundry transaction that hs been going on with the said bearer Mr. Kay, Mr. Jeffery.
We have gone through the western union records of all the transaction s that have been made from your country (Australia) to Nigeria. We would also like to inform you that we know you must have been thinking that you have been dealing with someone who is real and guinue but oh we are sorry to notify you that you have been undergoing what we call Scam.
We have sourced out all the necessary information about the said bearer Mr. kay and Mr. Jeffery and we are seriously investigating to know the truthfulness of your business transaction with this mentioned people.
For security reasons, you are advice to keep this to yourself if you had want us to help fetch this people out for you. DO NOT NOT CONTACT ANY OF THIS PEOPLE TO LET THEM KNOW ABOUT THIS SO AS TO HELP US ARCHIEVE A SUCCESSFUL INVESTIGATION.
