An e-mail message was sent out via "freebsd-current" over the weekend,
allegedly from one Dr. Yahaya Usman, asking for assistance in handling
a large sum of money.

THIS IS A SCAM.  PLEASE DO NOT BE TAKEN IN BY IT!!!

For more info on this scam, see the following:

Observant readers should note that, although the e-mail claims to be
of a personal, individual nature, the recipient is not named (either in
the "To:" line or the body of the message), and the "Received:" header
lines clearly show the e-mail was sent to "freebsd-current".  (Perhaps
Dr. Usman's late uncle was a FreeBSD developer? :-})
