No. If it was just a random email that you received, i wouldn't trust it. So many people are able to use computers and internation communication in this day and age to scam people that it's scary. I would block the sender, because there are other ways to reach out for help than emailing random strangers.

Don't believe in it. It's a variation of the Nigerian scam. They just change the names and places, but the circumstances are always similar.
