Urgent Assistance is the general name of an increasingly common fraudulent spam e-mail, also known as an array of names, like New Message!.

Existent since at least 2002, the e-mail message is generally titled URGENT ASSISTANCE, and asks the "Dear Sir/Madam", soliciting the opportunity of a financial partnership, resultant in the transfer of x million of US dollars into a "safe foreign account".

Some versions of the e-mail describe how the money was made available to sender upon a foreigner's participation, in situation such as faulty wills, but others simply skip such massive grey areas.
