Legal Question in International Law in United Kingdom

need help

Hi i have a question, i have been contacted by a lady in the U.K. that she is very sick with cancer and she has contacted me to be the beneficiary of her Safety Deposit Box which has like 2 million dollars in it which was given to her by her husband before he died. she wanted me to have this money so that i can help the needed and ones that do not know Christ as their Savoir. i agreed on helping her but i told her that i couldn't at the moment travel to the UK to fill out the legal documentation. so responded to me by letting me know that she knew a diplomat that was able to bring me the safety deposit box and i could pick it up in the airport here in miami,fl and the only thing i would need to pay is the handling fees. please let me know what can i do...

Re: need help

I am sorry to be the messenger but this very much looks like a sham. Just think: would diplomatic transport (and by a friend) cost anything? No. Since when would diplomats (and friends) run second jobs as couriers? Why would she need a courier and could not pay it into a bank account and then transfer it to you? And then: US$ 2m without even knowing you? Doesn't this sound odd? I would apply utmost caution!

Kind regards,
