The Nigerians are branching out

I get a lot of those Nigerian scam emails: "I worked for the Nigerian Ministry of Mines, I embezzled $32 Million, I need you to help me retrieve it, etc. etc."

Yesterday, DailyPundit had one with a new twist. But, I think mine's even better. It starts off:

FROM THE DESK OF:

MR. WOO CHONG
CHINATRUST COMMERCIAL BANK.
NAN KAN BRANCH, TAIWAN
REPUBLIC OF CHINA

I am Mr. Woo Chong, Bank Manager of Chinatrust Commercial Bank, Nan Kan
branch, Taiwan, R.O.C. I have urgent and very confidential business
proposition for you.

So, is this from a Nigerian posing as a Taiwanese, or has the RAM and motherboard business gone to hell?
