Weird e-mail... buying domain for Britney Spears??

I'm guessing this is an I.D. theft scam.

Nigerians must running out of bullshit stories to resort to this.

Hello gentleman,

I would like to make a formal offer of 67 US cents for your domain
'<removed>.com'. Because I am approaching you on behalf of a very
wealthy client, Ms. Britney Spears, I would like this offer to be one
of trust and confidentiality. Because I expect your quick agreement
due to the rather liberal sum of money this offer constitutes, I
expect you will reply with the appropriate deposit information.

It has been a pleasure dealing with you,

Exorbidant L. Tryonia
I doubt this is a joke unless its a total random loser because I only use that email address for domain sales, none of my friends or business associates have it.
