Hello everyone,
I just received this on my Skype, and thought I would send it along. I have blocked this user, but here we go with the spam stuff. I guess people just love to scam others.

[3:59:01 PM] pascal dufrasne says: Good day,
I am Mr. Pascal Dufrasne, Branch Manager of BNP Paribas Singapore, Private Bank, 20 Collyer Quay Tung Centre Singapore 049319. I have a proposition for you.
An american Oil consultant/contractor with the Singapore Solid Minerals Corporation, {Mr.Glenn . B. Hatleberg} made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at US$15,750,000.00 (Fifteen Million, Seven Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address $but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the Singapore Solid Minerals Corporation that Mr.Glenn . B. Hatleberg died in a plane crash along with his wife, Barbara Hatleberg in febuary 2000, http://archives.cnn.com/2000/US/02/01/alaska.airlines.list/. On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL, and all attempts to trace his next of kin have been fruitless as Mr.Glenn . B. Hatleberg did not declare any kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paper work in my Bank.
This sum of US$15,750,000.00 is still sitting in my Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will
ever come forward to claim it. According to Laws of Singapore, at the expiration of 5 (five) years which is this year, the money will revert to the ownership of the Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to Mr.Glenn . B. Hatleberg so that the fruits of this old man's labor will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will put you in place as the next of kin.
We shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents in your favor for the transfer. A bank account in any part of the world that you will provide will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 70% for me and 30% for you. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as the Branch Manager guarantees the successful execution of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately via the private email address below. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents to prove the authenticity and this will help you understand the transaction more.
Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this
transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country, reply me via E-mail Address:

regards
Mr. Pascal Dufrasne

Barbara,
I received that one early on in my use of Skype. Fortunately, that is the only one I have ever received. The good thing is that we do have the ability to block spammers like that.

Hi Dave,
It really ticks me off when stupid stuff like that gets to my computer.
I am also happy that we can block them out.
Have a nice Thanksgiving!

I've been using Skype since it's first release. I have not had the opportunity to check out the new release with video.
