    Umm...

    Post at least the email addresses the scammer expects victims to contact him/her.

    I have seen a few cases looking like "reputation assassination
    attempts". It makes me not eager to post publicly such details.

    Anyway contact email address given in email body was serviced by gmail.

    Your text snipped indicated classic Nigerian scam style.

    You'll find either (or all of) an email address in the scam's body,
    Reply-To: or From". Those in body and Reply-To: are likely valid
    addresses used by the scammer, sometimes even the one in the From:.

    I am after those addresses, especially if they are from Gmail.

    Anyway, you posted just the body. Without header or email addresses that
    helps nobody.

    I post "spam fashion" for its amusement value,
    i do not treat it as a hunt for single spammer/scammer.
    If it can't be better, at least make it funnier.

    Anyway I reported the spam via spamcop.net, razor and pyzor.

    In my opinion you should mention posting this text was for entertainment.

    That's good. Although in case of Google they seem to have a dysfunctional
    abuse desk.
