A New Scam

Well new to me anyway as I've not previously had a scam email quite like this one arrive in my mailbox. It is still very obviously a scam though and clearly written ages ago (with a small update to try and keep it modern). As always when I post one of these, I post it exactly as I received it, complete with typo's and all. Check this out:
