I can't work out if this is the best or the worst, definitely an eye-roller. I get a lot of emails from recruiters trying to get me to look at their candidates. I'm replacing the name to keep it anonymous.
Subject: Steve needs some help
Morning Yuan,
Dropping you an email as I'm hoping you can help Steve, who was described by his last company as "a natural born leader, highly organized and an extremely innovative and detailed developer”
Steve has been furloughed since June and instead of jumping ship there and then, like many people did, he showed real passion and commitment to his current company, in staying there until they made the difficult decision to make him redundant ☹
...
I fully expected the next line to ask me for a small monthly donation, anything I could spare, to help developers in need like Steve.
He has a web app worth 8000000$ MILLION that was left unclaimed by the previous company, but needs your help to pay a small cloud transfer fee to transfer it out
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.

Sounds like Steve might be a Nigerian Prince 😂
Ah Steve, the Nigerian web developer
