Sounds like this is your first experience with one. But these "Nigerian email scams" have been a thing for quite awhile:

That's an oldy but a goody.

I haven't heard of anyone getting that one for decades.

Their creativity is waning so they dusted off that old thing.

Pretty soon you'll get the one about Bill Gates paying for everyone to go to Disney World.

Been a long time since I received or even saw anything from Nigeria. I get a total of 100 or more emails and texts daily from political fund raisers, mostly Republicans, and probably half of them say it's my final chance. I also have been getting texts and emails from various banks that we don't do business with, as well as Paypal and Social Security. The political ones annoy me the most, and I think they must have a cookie or other implant that can't be removed, because apparently their system somehow detects activity on my phone, which triggers immediate texts and/or emails, or even phone calls.
