Yes, we have seen the behaviour many times before, with a whole host of illustrious diplomats, dictators and other riffraff. It’s hard to believe when you read it. It’s an old scammer trick that no longer works since most recipients of such emails have realised that no ambassador whose identity was stolen in this context works as a postwoman.
It is a scammer’s trick. The trick first came by fax in 1993(!) and was miserable enough then.
Therefore: There is nothing to the mail, do not reply and never send documents to the crooks. Never send money, throw the mail in the digital bin.
