The email was sent from the email address ""Hon. Barrister John Rapulu" <johnrapulu1@gmail.com>", with the subject "Urgent & Important !!".

The email raises a number of red flags that indicate that this is a scam. Firstly, Government departments do not use free email addresses such as Outlook.com. Secondly, they do not get involved in advising people that they are entitled to large sums of money. Thirdly, the email was sent to multiple recipients using BCC. This is a classic example of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam and anyone responding to it will be told that there is a fee/tax/insurance payment to be paid to receive the money. This will be followed by payment after payment until the victim runs out of money or realises that they are being scammed.
