    Nicklas -
    I don't know if this is what you're looking for but I have a collection of
    "Nigerian Letters," about 100 of them. They are not tagged. If you are
    handy with a spider or offline browser, you might be able to get some from:
    http://potifos.com/fraud/
    Last year I contacted it's owner, Lawrence Kestenbaum, and he almost agreed
    to make his massive collection available to me for a corpus. Then it fell
    through. His site has lotto letters and probably other types too. Hope
    that helps. Let me know if you want what I have.
