Unless you know this person or company quite well, don't do it! Please do NOT wire anything to a bank in Nigeria if it came in an unsolicited email, saying you "inherited" money from someone there, or through a bank there! IT'S A SCAM! Nigeria is one of the most often-used countries for this scam.
They take your money, and can empty your bank account, especially if you give them a "check by phone" or "draft check". They just keep re-submitting it and soon, you're account is empty and you are left with lots of overdraft charges and nothing else! Also, you won't see a PENNY of the thousands or millions promised to you!
Any time you see other offers like this, delete them from your e-mail and report the address to the police. If it's in the mail, same thing, or simply ignore it.
For more information on common scams, visit sites that deal with these, and often list the addresses, to warn you. Some good ones are http://www.pcmag.com, or the sites for McAffee, Norton or Microsoft's security pages.
