Dear Sir/Madam
My name is (staff Sgt.) David Bruce.; i am an American soldier, serving in the Military with the
army's 3rd infantry division.
i have a very desperate need for Assistance and have summed up courage to contact you.
I found your contact through internet serching and I am seeking your kind Assistance to move the sum of Five million United States dollars (us$5,000,000) to you, as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe in your care Until i complete my service here.
Source of money: some money in US currencies were discovered in barrels at a Farmhouse near one of saddam's old palaces in tikrit-iraq during a rescue operation, and it was agreed by staff Sgt Kenneth buff and i that some part of this money be shared Between both of us before informing anybody about it sinceboth of us saw the money first.
This was quite an illegal thing to do, but i tell you what! no compensation can make up For the risk we have taken with our lives in this hell hole, of which my brother in-law Was killed by a road side bomb last time.
The above figure was given to me as my share, and to conceal this kind of money become a Problem for me but with the help of a British contact working here and with his office Enjoying some immunity, i was able to get the package out to a safe location entirely Out of trouble spot.
he does not know the real contents of the package, and he believes that it belongs to a British American medical doctor who died in a raid here in Iraq, And before giving up, trusted me to hand over the package to his family in country.
I have now found a very secured way of getting the package out of Iraq to you at home For you to pick up, and i will discuss this with you when i am sure that you are willing To assist me and that my money will be well secured in your hand.
I want you to tell me How much you will take from this money for the assistance you will give to me.
One Passionate appeal i will make to you is not to discuss this matter with anybody,if you have any reasons to reject this offer, please and please destroy this message as any Leakage of this information will be too bad for the u.s. soldier's here in Iraq.
I do Not know how long we will remain here; month of May was the deadliest month for us to be out Here. Totally, we lost 127 men and i have been shot,wounded and survived two suicide Bomb attacks by the special grace of god.
This and other reasons i will mention later Has prompted me to reach out for help.I honestly want this matter to be resolved immediately, please contact meas soon as Possible with my private e-mail address which is my only way of communication (e-mail: sgtdavidbruce@yahoo.co.jp)
May god bless you and your family
From David Bruce.
i dont have the time to help this guy, but if anyone else wants to step up..... :P
wow
I don't mind the nigerian prince angle
but that pisses me off
Tasteless move.
the first thing i thought of is "who keeps money in a barrel?"
then i wanted to know how big 5 million dollars would be. i can't imagine that it's that small or light.

Actually, it's not that much.
The weight of a note is approximately 1 gram.
5 million dollars is 50 thousand 100 dollar bills, Which means that 5 million would be approximately 50 kilos.
For those not familiar with the metric system, 50 kilos is only about 110 pounds. You can fit that in a backpack.

that's supposed to be 100,000,000 dollars (1,000,000 $100 bills)
so 1/20th of that.
Reminds me of that movie Three Kings except as a scam. I think that was the movie name.

that still won't be cheap to ship.
stupid metric system...when will the rest of the world realize that standard makes far less sense and should be used?! :P
110lbs of lead can fit in a backpack. but not 110lbs of feathers.
unless its Iraqi money, in that case it aint worth shit.
