There's a sort of amusing circularity for a scam email claiming to be compensation for scam emails. I think the incompetent implementation and obvious implausibility adds to that, as does the unusual step of explicitly stating in the initial email that you have to send them money for nothing.

In related news, I can provide Approval of Letterbox Faeces Delivery Permits for the low price of £100, payable to Lord Lucan and Bilbo Baggins.
 
I got another of these ones earlier. :D

Hi, i am now the FBI and can assist you in getting back the money that you sent me all those months ago to secure shares in my diamond mine, and the money to secure your malaysian lottery win, and that money you sent to stop me releasing all those sexy videos.

This is all getting a bit meta. I look forward to the email from time travelling freedom fighters who have travelled back to 2018 in order to stop the World War that occurred when the world discovered the FBI had been infiltrated by scammers. "We just need 200 historical dollars in order to get our hovering battle base operational again so we can fix the future!"
 
I would never have guessed that Mr Derick Foster of the FBI's anti-fraud and "monitary" department would be using a Gmail address :D
 
I had a bit of weird one last week - was basically a threat. The author claimed he was going to come and kill me unless I sent over Bitcoins. Obviously a scam but someone might fall for it.
