As John C says 419 scam. Although some are quite funny reads. I was contacted by a Major in the Liberian Special Forces about money from a Diamond sale.

Nah, phishing is when some african guy e-mails you telling you that he has £50m stuck in some dead guys account and needs you to help get it out. You give them some money for administration fees and they scam you into paying more and more.
Another twist i winning the lottery in some country that you've never even heard of
Oh and Colier, stop being a smartass.
