I received the same email a few weeks ago apparently from an old colleague. He is about 80 but very Internet savvy. I went round to see him right away and he was already on the case.
What made it potentially convincing is that it is his email account but the scammer had put a divert on replies. The account's owner doesn't see these. I think this is a secretarial function in email?
