Internet scams revisited

I'm sitting here laughing my butt off because I wrote that last post about the Internet scams, went and got me and my dad coffee and talked to my dad for a little while and get back and here in my e-mail is another scam along the same lines (they decided they should not ask me what my occupation is - wonder if they read my post? LMAO!). Anyway, this new guys says:
Subject: YOUR COMPERSATION

Dear Friend,

I'm sorry but happy to inform you about my success in getting those funds
transferred last week under the cooperation of a new partner from japan
though i tried my best to involve you in the businnes but God decided the
whole situations. Presently i'm in japan for investment projects with my own
share of the total sum. meanwhile,i didn't forget your past efforts
andattempts to assist me in transferring those funds despite that it failed
us some how.
::pounds head on desk:: It goes on, but I think you get the drift by now on what it is like. I'm being offered
"$850.000.00 which i kept for your
compensation for all the past efforts and attempts to assist me in this
matter."
Yeah, sure, I'll just contact your secretary, and tell him all about me. I don't think so buddy, read my last post, I'm a lot more inclined to contact the Internet Crime Complaint Center and report your little scam.
