Nigerian scam again

About two weeks ago I got a referral from another attorney. He had a client who needed help with an international business problem, specifically that she had money in a Zimbabwean bank and was being asked to hire a specific lawyer there and pay lots of fees to get it out.

At first she didn’t want to tell me all the facts, but I recognized it immediately as a cousin to the well-know Nigeria scam. She had been contacted and told that there was money in the bank that she could claim, and the person who contacted her out of the blue would help her get it out if she would pay him a percentage of it.
