The Best Scam Email I Have Ever Received

I just opened up my email and went in to clean out my spam folder, when one of them caught my eye.  It was from James Comey, the current director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the subject line was "Division and Cyber Crime Division (FBI)".

I've never gotten a scam email from the FBI, let alone from the director himself!  I knew it was going to be a good one.

Below is the email, one hundred percent unedited.  I think my favorite part is where they have noted people I've been in contact with, like Ben of FedEx.  And the fact that I could get a $5.9M ATM card for a mere $250. What a deal!
