Ah, Kay;-
   Yes indeed. Just delete. Lets see: I got two such messages Sunday, one Saturday, about four the previous five days. All they want is your bank account number so they can transfer "Millions in". Actually the number allows them to transfer money OUT.
   The messages come from (presumably) all over Africa, some from Indonesia, and I even got one from Britain. They are pure fraud. They probably get many to bite (or byte). Eventually, someone with some influence (relatives) will get stung, and the appropriate government agency will track a few down.
   Just consider it, for now, the added tax for the luxury of having a computer.
