This is a relatively minor bait, but I thought I'd share it for the Romanian connection (Adriana and Birlic might get a laugh).
The scammer's emails are date-stamped; names have been changed. My comments are in bold.

Malcolm responds using Bronski's substitute for a full stop and a degree of snark.
Dr Bronski
I don't know anything about this $45 million, or your sister-in-law. OK? And you didn't attach anything, OK? And you're from Romania, working in London but currently in America, so why would I send money to someone in Nigeria, OK?

Dear trusted friend Malcolm Reynolds,
Reference to your mail , firstly , sincerely and honestly note that the fund worth US$45M Dollars was made beneficiary to you by a philanthropist who refuse to disclose his details do to the nature of his humanitarian works.
Further note that the instruction from the philanthropist is that you should make sure that the less privilege once , the affected families from hurricanes,Tornado victims, Fraud victims and also all churches within your region benefit from the fund and you should take for yourselves for the humanitarian work well done 30% OK?
Secondly, kindly note that my Sister-in-Law is only giving you support in order to stand for you as a guarantor so that her associate broker can finance this transaction for you by providing the fee to obtain all the legal backup documents required by the US Government before the release of the fund payment worth US$45M Dollars to you OK?
Thirdly, note that the reason why you are required to send the $195.00 dollars to Africa Nigeria is because the public notary officer is presently there on assignment and will prepare the agreement (MOU) as soon he receive the money without delay so that we can proceed on this transaction accordling OK?
Finally, i reattached here again my International passport photo page and also my official working ID Card for your personal record and strongly advise that you keep these documents strictly confidential to avoid identity thieves by impostors OK?

Malcolm continues with the parody of Bronski's style and the snark. The comment about Christopher Nolan is a reference to his film Memento.
Dr Bronski
Starting at the end may have worked for Christopher Nolan, but it ain't for me, OK? Did you really expect me to agree to participate in what you're proposing without knowing everything about it, OK? Please be serious about this, OK?
Malcolm Reynolds
That seems to have shocked Dr Bronski, as he took a few days to respond, and forgot his signature block.

Mal dials up the snark (emphasis in original).
Dr Bronski
Let me break this down for you, OK?
There's a man about whom I know very little who just told me that a nameless man has left me a fortune for reasons not given, and that his sister-in-law, about whom I know even less, is apparently going to pay for undefined fees, though I'm to send money to another man I don't know to pay for an MOU that I supposedly asked for but never did ask for... there are too many negatives in this whole situation, OK?
And WRT that MOU - since I never asked for it, despite you claiming that I did, that means that your claim that "everything i stated is nothing bu the real truth of the matter" can't be true, OK?

Dr Bronski
I can't answer that without full disclosure, OK? For example, "the fund worth US$45M Dollars was made beneficiary to you by a philanthropist who refuse to disclose his details do to the nature of his humanitarian works" - I need to know the man's name and background, and I won't take no for an answer, OK?

Progress at last! That still doesn't excuse how you handled this matter in the wrong way. Why did you do that?
Additional; you wrote this - "you should make sure that... all churches
within your region benefit from the fund" - something you need to know; I will not support churches, or any religious institutions, in any way. In my opinion and experience, they are either crutches for the weak-minded, or instruments of social control.
