We’ve seen a very similar story before, probably from the same Nigerian scammer. This time the name is a little different, new e-mail addresses and they edited the story a bit.

Today the scammers sended the exact same message but they replaced "Mr. Seng" with "Mr. Chan Sokheng".
Scam alert! The E-mail above is a SCAM. It’s a Nigerian Money scam, the story and all names & roles are fake. The scammers will ask you for money upfront as ‘costs’ before you get the ‘funds’ (which you will never get offcourse).
If you’ve received this by e-mail than mark it as SPAM (if possible) and/or DELETE it.
