In this opportunity I would like to warn you from a phenomenon that has spread plentifully in the media specially the read media.
the phenomenon is in a form of people with fake identity claiming that they have a lot of money (hundreds of thousands of dollars and they can't spend it because of certain difficulties and then they address you to make use of the said money by keeping it in your bank account and in return they promise you to give up like 5% of that amount ....etc, then they will ask you to pay some amount for insurance for the total amount (usually hundreds of dollars, so please you are advised not to pay any attention to such messages in your e mail or sms messages to your cell phone, they usually come from Africa.

Salamu alaikum wr wb.
That is known as a Nigerian fraud or scam. Has happened many times with naive people.
Khudi ko kar buland itna ki har taqdir se pehle Khuda bande se khud puche bata teri raza kya hai.
