IS ANYONE GETTING THESE ?

Postby Forever Blue » Thu Dec 31, 2009 9:05 am

Type of emails, they are using our troops to try and con money out of us, BEWARE :evil:

Dear Friend,

My name is Sgt Mike Jones, serving in the Engineering military unit in Ba'qubah in Iraq.
As you know, we are being attacked by insurgents everyday and car bombings.we found some money here in Baqubah in Iraq, we cannot keep this money in the bank,because we are working for the government.

My partners and I need a good partner/individaul, someone we can trust and We want to move this money out of iraq to a reputable/sincere person for investment purposes.

We plan on using a diplomatic means to ship the money out as military cargo, using diplomatic immunity.This is the reason for contacting you.Once the funds get to you,take your 30% out and keep our own 70%.

The only thing we require from you is just for you to help us find a safe place where the funds can be sent to,because Iraq is a war zone. If you are interested get back for more details.

Thanks,

Sgt Mike Jones

Yeah, I got one of these a year or so ago. I just ignored it like I always do with similar stuff e.g. Ali Kal Nagajaa the 7th Prince of Nigeria who needs to be restored to the throne or something!

It's a shame someone is trying to play on people's emotions and opinions to con money out of honest people but the world is full of pricks like this.

One has to be "born yesterday type of naive" to fall for such stuff. The one remarkable thing about this letter is that it's in relatively good English.

How can someone they've never met be deemed trustworthy to them? Sounds like a hoax or a con to me

Dear Friend,

My name is Sgt Mike Jones, serving in the Engineering military unit in Ba'qubah in Iraq.
As you know, we are being attacked by insurgents everyday and car bombings.we found some money here in Baqubah in Iraq, we cannot keep this money in the bank,because we are working for the government.

My partners and I need a good partner/individaul, someone we can trust and We want to move this money out of iraq to a reputable/sincere person for investment purposes.

We plan on using a diplomatic means to ship the money out as military cargo, using diplomatic immunity.This is the reason for contacting you.Once the funds get to you,take your 30% out and keep our own 70%.

The only thing we require from you is just for you to help us find a safe place where the funds can be sent to,because Iraq is a war zone. If you are interested get back for more details.

Thanks,

Sgt Mike Jones
