Are these a new form of scam or am I just seeing them for the first time. I recieved two in my inbox today.

It says you have to download a plugin to view the site. Of course I am not going to be doing that. I don't suggest anyone else do it either.

I am just curious is this the same nigerian scammers? Just more sophisticated?

Thanks,

Well after I sent that one in to the forum I recieved like 5 more. All basically the same heading but for all different things. They are definitely all being generated by the same person.
