Interesting take on the scam here, offering compensation! Same old story really though:

BRITISH HIGH COMMISSION

Cadastral Zone AO,
Central Business District, Abuja.
ATTENTION:
The BRITISH HIGH COMMISSION(BHC) in Nigeria, Benin Republic,Ghana and Burkinafaso
received a report of scam against you and other British/US citizens, Swiss, Asia
and other European countries. The countries of Nigeria, Benin Republic, Burkinafaso
and Ghana have recompensed you following the meeting held with the Four countries
Government and various countries High Commission for the fraudulent activities
carried out by the Four countries Citizens.
Your name was among those scammed as listed by the Nigeria Financial Intelligent
Unit(NFIU). A compensation has been issued out in Certified Bank Drafts to all the
affected victims and has already been in distribution to all the bearers. Your draft
was among those that was reported undelivered as at Monday and we wish to advise you
to see to the instructions of the Committee to make sure you receive your draft immediately.
According to the number of applicants at hand, 184 Beneficiaries had been paid, half
of the victims are from the United States,we still have more 37 left to be paid the
compensations of US$40,000.00 Dollars each.
Your particulars was mentioned by one of the Syndicates who was arrested as one of
their victims of his operations,you are hereby warned not to communicate or duplicate
this message to him for any reason whatsoever because the UK / U.S. secret service are
already on trace of the other criminals. So keep it secret till they are all apprehended.
Other victims who have not been contacted can submit their application as well for scrutiny
and possible consideration.
NFIU further told us that the use of Nigeria and Ghana Couriers was abolished due to
interception activities noticed in the above mentioned courier services in Benin,Nigeria
and Ghana and thereby have made a concrete arrangement with the DHL Courier Company for a
safe delivery to your door-step once the beneficiary meets up the demand of the conveyance.
We advise that you provide the needed details to make sure the NFIU dispatches your Draft
immediately. Please contact the Commission now by replying this e-mail at: british.hcomm01@gmail.com
You are assured of the safety of your fund and availability. Be advised to stop further
contacts with all the fake lawyers and security companies who in collaboration scammed you.
Get back to me immediately to check if the delivery date suits you.
