I got this email today, I'd think Uncle Sam would be most displeased:
Dear requested Partner,
Please pardon me for the informal way this email is reaching you.
It is not my intention to approach you through the internet but
because I do not have your full information, hence I decided to
contact you through this means.
I am in need of your assistance. My name is Xxxxx Xxxxx X. from New
Jersey, United States... I am a Second Lieutenant at the United States
Marine Corps... we have about $10.2 Million US dollars that we want to
move out of the country. My partners and I need a good partner out
there, someone we can trust to receive the funds on our behalf. It is
oil money and legal.
We have made arrangements with a Diplomatic Courier Service that will
move the funds out of Iraq as a Family Treasures, also we have made
arrangement to transfer the said fund through Bank of Baghdad
depending on what you want, The most important thing is; "Can We Trust
you"? Once the funds get to you, simply take out 20% as your share and
keep the remaining 80% for us. Your own part of this deal is to find a
safe place where the funds can be sent to, ours is sending it to you
safely.
Also you can view the Link
http://www.marines.mil/news/messages/Pa ... 40-09.aspx" target="_blank" to
verify my membership of the marine corps... If you are interested I
will furnish you with more details upon receipt of your response and
contact details. But I can assure you the whole process is simple and
we must keep a low profile at all times.
I look forward to your reply and co-operation.
Regards,
Xxxxx Xxxxx X.
(I removed the name of the 2nd Lt, as a good friend suggested that a scammer just picked that name off the list.)
