FW: Matter of urgency, your assistance is needed

LOL, this has got to be one of the most pitiful 419 scam emails I've ever seen. (read full mail below)

Boxes of stolen $$$'s, espionage etc etc. If I found boxes of stolen dollars the last thing I would do is e-mail the entire world about it Wink

And the use of English is realy dire.

"On the 19th day of February 2009", only ever said in court by a grumpy policeman, followed by 'Mi'lord'

"am an army contractor" -- 'I'm an' or 'I am an'

"which is total with a figure mark" - What the hell are you talking about. Probably means there's a dollar sign on the top of these boxes.

" We have no idea what could happen next as everything remains inconclusive at this point" - sure, I know the feeling.

" I am fully aware of what your thoughts would be next" - oh so you can 'mind read' too.

" but on receiver of your response with the information's" - sorry, I have no 'information's' and my telephone receiver is fine, thank you very much.

" please assure me of your keeping this topmost secret" - Handily, I have an A4 manilla envelope, with "TOPMOST SECRET INFORMATION'S" stamped on it, just for occasions such as this.

"We believe the boxes are owned and linked to late Saddam Hussein" - and how did you come to that concusion?, do those boxes also have 'Propery of S. Hussain esq' stamped on them!! Wow, what a coincidence"

" since Iraq is getting unsafe and dangerous every day." - what do you mean 'getting'?

"delivery agent conveying the boxes will require the details for a safe delivery" - Why, what is he going to do, air-drop the boxes on my front lawn?

"I will send my picture as well as my Identity, for you to know whom you are dealing with" - That's ok, I have several pictures of 'Mickey Mouse' already!

Bunch of illiterate scumbags, Hehe

Can someone bait this bozo please?

Dear Friend,

I am James Barry, am an army contractor attached to the army force in Iraq.
On the 19th day of February 2009, I and my men discovered some metal boxes (3 in number) piled on top one another, each with a sign written on them. One filled with bullets and the other two to my amazement contained US Dollars, which is total with a figure mark $8.2 Million. We believe the boxes are owned and linked to late Saddam Hussein.

We hide the boxes containing the money in untraceable location, and I am now in desperate need of a reliable and Trustworthy person who would receive and secure these boxes containing the US Dollars. We cannot afford to leave the boxes here in Iraq for any reason since Iraq is getting unsafe and dangerous every day.

We have no idea what could happen next as everything remains inconclusive at this point. Please forward your full names, contact address, telephone and ID as the delivery agent conveying the boxes will require the details for a safe delivery.

I am fully aware of what your thoughts would be next, but on receiver of your response with the information's, I will send my picture as well as my Identity, for you to know whom you are dealing with.

I assure and promise to give you 20% of this fund, please assure me of your keeping this topmost secret within you so that my job would not be jeopardized.

My Sincere Regards,
James Barry

20% of $8.2 million isn't much, I'd brown nose Yassie for a share of $250 billion if I was you

"Yassie"?

Yassie? Yasser?

Forget the cash. Go for the bullets. Laughing

That's what I was thinking!

Screw the cash, you NEED a Bradley Fighting Vehicle and a truckload of AK's.

I'll bait him. I'll try to go for the bullets, or at least get the 20% raised to 30 or 40%.

Tell him you're starting your own militia and need bullets to declare war on Florida. Either that or ask for the ENTIRE fund, not just 20%. I've never been turned down.

Didn't James Barry (Barrie) write Peter Pan? Could that be tied in?

I still recall fondly the letter that told me (emphasis added):

Quote:

Two years ago,an American client,Mr. George Taylor, with a Deposit to the sum of USD23.2Million died in a ghasly accident while on ice skiing in the carribean.

A follow-up added:

Quote:

Mr. Taylor died without any next of kin.... His wife had died of prostrate cancer about five years ago and they had no children.

Those are classic, is there a '419 Blooper' forum topic. Smile

Hi James,
I am Peter,
I'm also a army contractor in Saudi. This sounds really cool. In fact I told my wife Wendy, "Darling, come check out this e-mail”. Reading it my brain took off and I thought it would 'never land'.
Anyways I checked it out with my boss in the army, Captain Hook, and he said people are always turning up stolen dollars in Iraq as they stole so much from the oil companies during the war.
I have not told anyone else about this except my little 'tinker' Belle, my secretary.

Please e-mail me back and tell me what to do.

P.S I am not using my main e-mail address to keep this topmost secret as you asked.

Yours sincerely,

Mr P. Pann
