            I had one a few days ago informing me I had been left money in the will of the late Luciano Pavarotti.

            Perhaps Pavarotti had heard me singing in the bath and decided I needed lessons?

                But they're not asking for any money from you, so how can it be a scam? I'll be applying at lunchtime.
