The funniest spam I think I've ever gotten

I NEVER open spam, but this one caught my attention. I wonder why...


The email was titled "We are told you are dead.....is it true"




Attention Beneficiary
We write to confirm the recent information we just heard from a man Named Mr. Peter Oba, this men came to our office This Morning to inform us that you are dead and during your illness you instructed him to claim your warned federal government compensation fund of $3.5 million on your behalf in case you die. So he made things very clear to us that you are dead and he’s the only person you disclosed this matter with and you have instructed him to come and claim the money since you are dead.
Therefore, we want to confirm if you are dead or alive and failure to reply back within the next 48hrs simply means what Mr. peter Oba said was right because he has ordered us to release the Card payment to Dr. David Moore from united states and he has agreed to pay the needed fund valued, but we have not gotten the charge from him yet as we want to find out first if you are dead or not,
So if you are still alive, advisers will need your feel back with your postal address attached bellow for your best interest, so we can stop further communication with Dr. David Moore.
Your full name..........
You’re phone.............
You’re fax number.........
You’re house address......
Your occupation.........
You’re age/sex............
Your ID Adentity.......
Beside if you fail to comply with the needed $149 US posting charge that you re required sometime ago, there’s no way we can post the Card payment to you unles you can come down to Benin and collect your ATM Card in person. 
Looking forward to hear from you if you are still alive.
 
Yours truly,
Mr. Mike Eze

I just snorted water. That's so very _not_ a transparent scheme...I'm saying the writer was a bright 12 year old.
