received an e-mail from Mr. Yuen Wai keung, Bill and exhange manager for Wing Hang Bank LTD. 253-259 Castle peak Road' Cheung Sha Wan, Kowloon. e-mail yuen_2wAmyway.com.

Standard story, German family on Concorde accident, no heirs. Would I become a heir, and share USD4.5M of USD15.5M

Am playing along with them to see when they want some money for a bond or something, then will give to Fraud squad.

What you do is called "scambaiting".

A tip for your safety: you should never be using your real personal details and/or personal email address for that. While it is unlikely that the scammers will retaliate against you when they find out that you have been leading them along, it is still possible, and i wouldn't want to have them standing on my doorstep.

There is a whole forum dedicated to scambaiting: http://www.419eater.com and you can read a number of tips here.
