I got this exact same email with the same story:

Hello Ma'am,

How are you doing?i hope you're doing good.First and foremost,i have had a bit of a bad and rough days and I'm just trying to pull myself together. My secretary who traveled to Berlin (Germany) contacted me regarding your payment which had been issued and mailed out to you and you would be receiving it anytime soon. She informed me that she included an extra fund in the payment sent instead of sending you the exact amount for the products that I'm ordering from you and I was a little and seriously mad at her but she told me not to worry at all that the remaining fund would be safe since I'm ordering from a Marykay representative,she said every representative in Marykay are very honest and trustworthy which you've exhibited and i have seen that in you,you're a very wonderful,caring and honest person,to me you're one of the best Marykay representative because you've been so nice to me like my former Rep and have rendered a very lovely services so far,i know that my funds would be safe with you when you receive it before you order the products.

I wanted her to send the remaining fund to an orphanage home for an 8 years old girl's cystic fibrosis surgery also known as(mucoviscidosis),the little poor girl have been in great pains and i felt for her when i saw her and heard about her health condition so i promised to support her financially to save her life as a woman of God i am. I'm also in the hospital at the moment for an endoscopy medical treatment.I just don't know what to do.I'm totally confused and very worried,i also want you to pray for the sick little girl because at this moment every prayer counts.I do believe that my funds would be very safe with you but i just had to explain and inform you about it so you wouldn't think it was from another customer payment.Please can I have your words and know that my funds would be safe with you when you receive the payment? I really need you to help me send the remaining fund to the orphanage as soon as you receive and cash the payment. I know i can count on you. I pray and hope the little poor girl gets better soon and i also hope you will be able to make it to my sister's anniversary party because a friend of mine said she would be ordering for her personal Marykay products and she told me to give you her email so you could contact her for her order list,her name is Mrs Kamilia and her email is( [email protected] )she would be coming to the party and she expect to meet with you if you gonna be able to come to the party,contact her so that you both could schedule on how to meet and my friends are many also.I can't also wait to meet you in person and also introduce you to my sister and my friends,meanwhile i will be ordering for my personal marykay products from you when we must have concluded with my sister's products. I can't wait to meet you in her anniversary party because I'm having you as a VIP guest.

N.B;Let me know if you would be able to attend the party but if you can't make it i will definitely inform my friends and families about the products and your awesome services,I'm sure many of my friends would contact you when i tell them about you.

Thanks so much and best regard's

Mrs April Standard
