Received this email this morning. Seems legit, I mean, who can argue with an american soldier who needs to hide 8 million dollars? He only needs my assistance for a small fee. I HATE this kind of shit.

That man is apparently a U.S. Soldier and deserves your respect... and maybe your money. I'd do it.

[BruteForce]

Seems legit to me. US Soldiers always refer to the U.S. as "Your Country" and reference BBC news articles.

sounds like it's time to take this guy for a 419scambaiting trip...

only WAY funnier.

:roflol:

If you've never read this story of the FUNNIEST scambaiter story ever, you should.

http://www.419eater.com/html/SkeletonCoast/index.html

Short of the long, this guy convinces the scam artists that the money is floating off the ocean in a waterproof vault, with a GPS transmitter in it, and the scammers are going all over trying to find scuba gear or boats and whatever else it will take to find it. It is HILARIOUS.

Armand!!!! How the hell you been you old fagalow? Man I have not talked to you for years!!! I think the last time was when we embarked on the Bukakke mission in Japan right? Man how time flies. So tell me about this secret mission and what the details are? You know I got your back and will do anything for you. I say we split the money 50/50. But hell, if you need more than that to cover your expenses then I would happy just getting a cool million. I do have some concerns though.

1. Why are you talking like a fag?
2. Why are you using all CAPS and yelling at me like an asshole?
3. Why don't you know how to spell British?
4. What's this "god bless you" crap? Aren't you an atheist?

TAKE CARE AND SEE YOU LATER!!
Haha sorry couldn't help yelling at you back.

- Sgt Doogie Bohglee -

Any ideas welcome. The last time I tried this they caught on too fast and dropped me.
:popcorn:

[nelsonccc]

I replied back with the following response;

Sgt. Jones Armand,
This sounds like a good plan. I'd love to help. I think it might be easier than you thought. I'm Sergeant First Class William James. I'm the team leader for EOD (Explosive Ordinance Disposal) here in Bravo company in Baghdad. I was sorry to hear of your two encounters with suicide bombers. I know how you feel. I spend a great deal of time each week disposing of IED's here in Iraq.

In any case I'm set to ship back to the states in less than two weeks. As you know military personnel are not subject to search and customs laws so I think we have a pretty good chance of getting your money into the states. I'm more than willing to hold your money and help you until you can arrive in the states. I've heard that the 3rd infantry division (your division) is set to ship back a few battalions soon. So perhaps we can make arrangements sooner than you thought!

Let me know how I can be of further assistance and how you're thinking of compensating me for my time.
Thanks,
Sgt. William James

As some of you may have noticed, I watched The Hurt Locker this past weekend and drew some inspiration from the film. Lets see what happens! :haha:

So I got a reply this morning;

[i]Attn: Sgt. William James,

Top of the day to you. I acknowledge your response based on my proposition and I really appreciate your concern regarding this. I'm taking time to explain this to you so that you can have a clear understanding about this.

Please, note that I have limited time to be on the internet as the security situation here in Iraq has worsen and our commander has told us to always be on the alert so there is a limited time for communication but during my shift, I will always try to be on the internet to communicate with you. Please note that our entire squad has access to only one telephone line and that line will not be convenient for this deal at most times. My family would have been in the best place to keep this money for me but because I would not welcome too many query which will arise to knowing every details of achieving such an amount, which I am avoiding, and it's my absolute reason why I needed a person outside of my home.

I have set aside 20% as my offer for your assistance approximately work it out yourself to really understand the total sum of 20% from whole sum,ok?I want you to understand that this issue is a gilt-edge transaction So you don

[CarpeyBiggs]

Any ideas on what I should say now? I think I'm going to ask him to wire me some good faith money to show his trust. Then I think I'm going to try to get some more infomration from him. Maybe bargain for more than 20%? I might also ask if he can go meet with a friend of mine in his same division to help verify that he is legit.

lol. do all of those. and be a real ass. 20 $^%&ing percent!?! seriously, don't even consider less than 50. :roflol:

[bowjunkie]

:popcorn:

[Jaxx]

ask him to tell you how much your cut is. Mabey he can't keep track of how much money he originally told you that he had. On top of everything else you already have planned.

[Deathcricket]

I didn't get a reply :(.....

[Cirrus2000]

This is when I'd start photoshopping a drivers license and emailing it along...

[nelsonccc]

My latest reply. Ingenious if you ask me.

[i]Sgt. Armand,

Thanks for the quick response. I

[Sombeech]

Just remember, these guys have made fools of themselves before, but you have to be careful. You don't want them to spit out the hook. You have to keep acting genuinely stupid.

When they ask for a bank number, get it almost right, like 1 or 2 numbers short, or long. When they ask for your phone number, leave out the area code on the first and second request, stuff like that.

I even read one where the guy found a street camera/weather cam and somehow lured the guys to meet him somewhere there, while he sat in comfort 4000 miles away and actually watched them show up.

If you could find some kind of "surf cam" on a beach and lure them there so you could see them show up, that'd be epic.

[accadacca]

I just don't have the time to do the paperwork here. I'm looking for someone to work out the details with David and then we can split the money.

Dearest in mind,

I would like to introduce myself for the first time. My name is Barrister David Gomez Gonzalez, the personal lawyer to my late client.
Who worked as a private businessman in the international field. In 2012, my client succumbed to an unfortunate car accident. My client was single and childless.
He left a fortune worth $12,500,000.00 Dollars in a bank in Spain. The bank sent me message that I have to introduce a beneficiary or the money in their bank will be confiscate. My purpose of contacting you is to make you the Next of Kin.
My late client left no will, I as his personal lawyer, was commissioned by the Spanish Bank to search for relatives to whom the money left behind could be paid to. I have been looking for his relatives for the past 3 months continuously without success. Now I explain why I need your support, I have decided to make a citizen of the same country with my late client the Next of Kin.

I hereby ask you if you will give me your consent to present you to the Spanish Bank as the next of kin to my deceased client.
I would like to point out that you will receive 45% of the share of this money, 45% then I would be entitled to, 10% percent will be donated to charitable organizations.

[Sombeech]

Well, he does say Best Regards

[rockgremlin]

Wow that's so cool! I'm so jealous! What are you going to do with your newfound fortune?

[accadacca]

Wow that's so cool! I'm so jealous! What are you going to do with your newfound fortune?
I've already booked a trip to the Bahamas and bought a new Lamborghini that I don't have to make a payment on until Dec 1st, so I figure I'll just pay it off with cash money.

[Scott Card]

Seems legit. He uses the word "Barrister", which no one uses, so he must be extra good and honest.

[accadacca]

I’m gonna be RICH!!!!

—-


Good day, Mr Scott

We are group of local miners registered and we hope to go corporate someday. We have a capacity to produce between 20-50kgs of Alluvial Gold dust every month and we also buy from others small scale miners around.

We have now available 2000kgs Alluvial Gold dory bar ready for sale and shipment to buyer’s zone.

We are seriously looking for reliable person or group of persons, and company that will be interested in our gold and also give us a helping hand in terms of mining equipment to enable us improve in our mining capacity of production.

With good mining equipment we can produce more than 100KG-200KG every month as we have very rich land of gold for mine.

We are selling our gold at a very good price to anybody that can help us get mining equipment, and we will pay the equipment cost with gold in equivalent.

Upon your response we shall send you FCO. I hope to hear from your side soon section how we may progress further.

Regard, Mr Johnson

[Iceaxe]

FWIW - 50 kg of gold is $2.6 million, so I don't really see any downside to the deal...

100 kg to 200 kg a month would be $10.4 to $20.8 million a month. That's a lot of coke and whores for anyone that can math.
