Usually, such scam mail originates in Africa. Now comes from other countries as well. Often, victims of this scam receive an introduction letter via email. In such a letter, they are usually told a story about a wealthy person (for example a rich businessman or government official) who has died. The letter then asks the receiver to provide a bank account where the deceased's money can be "safely" deposited with a promise to pay 20% to 30% of the deposit as compensation.
