President Obama's new stimulus plan has just been put in to place and our records indicate that you are qualified to receive $20,000. In order to get your share of this massive government handout, all you need to do is reply to this email with your bank account information and within 2-4 weeks the money should arrive in your account.

<some fake name>,
US Department of the Treasury

<add official looking seal>
That'll only work if you claim to be a distantly related cousin of the President's, currently living in Kenya.
