Most of the "Nigerian" scams are pretty straightforward, Person A has gobs of money. It's not possible for them to get at it (it's either ill-gotten, or politically impossible, or a straight up crime). Person B is asked to launder it, taking a slice of the pie for their trouble/risk.

This one is better, it's asking you to be an agent. The money is a commission. It might actually catch honest people, who are simply greedy.

but the Mark of Nigeria is still there. (Capitalization of the important Words)
I'm surprised that someone hasn't started selling proofreading services to 419 scammers. Cash in advance, of course.

Except for the Odd Capitalization,

It was all going along fairly well, I thought, until I reached this point: "This would be commencing very soon, however our funding were by our American counterparts that sends to us the bunch of payments mostly in US Based mode of Payments" and it all fell apart in a great big steaming pile of scam.

Tsk.
