ltmurnauWell, this is a variation on that scam that I hadn't seen before - just got it in my mailbox:
Good day,
My name is Sgt John Fletcher , a british soldier Serving in the military of the 1st Armored Division in Iraq, As you know we are being attacked by insurgents everyday and car bombs. We managed to move funds belonging to Saddam Hussien's family. The total amount
is US$25 Million dollars in cash, mostly 100 dollar bills. We want to move this money to you, so that you may invest it for us and keep our share for banking. We will take 700%, my partner and I. You take the other 30%. no strings attached, just help us move it out of
Iraq, Iraq is a warzone. We plan on using diplomatic courier and shipping the money out in one large silver box, using diplomatic immunity.
If you are interested I will send you the full details, my job is to find a good partner that we can trust and that will assist us. Can I trust you? When you receive this letter,kindly send me an e-mail signifying your interest including:
Your most confidential telephone/fax numbers for quick communication including your contact details. This business is risk free.
Respectfully,
Sgt John Fletcher.
He even used a ukarmy.mil email address - clever, but the writing gives it away, even if you are not familiar with the scam. Nice touch with the "silver box".
