"PLEASE, YOU MUST GET BACK TO ME URGENTLY"

[Mutley]

Just opened my e-mails and found the following, just had to laugh at it, since when has Bagdad been inthe South Pacific??
But if this is true I'm in the money......

Dear Sir,

My name is Sergeant David Villiami from Tonga Island located in the south pacific. I am among the 55 Royal Marines deployed in late 2007, guarding the command headquarters at Camp Victory in Baghdad. I am writing to seek for your immediate assistance to help me secure the sum of sixteen million Eight hundred thousand (US$ 16,800,000:00) United States Dollars into your country. I found this money in a large box beside a dead Iraqi rebel who was fleeing as the Multi-National Force advance to their camp. I quickly too it and hid it somewhere safe. I have discussed with a diplomat here in Iraq who is ready to deliver the box to your country through diplomatic coverage. As soon as the money gets to you, you will have to secure them while I wait for my discharge letter which is under processing.
I will compensate you with 20% of the amount involved.
Kindly send me email with the following information, your full names, address of residence and contact telephone numbers.
Immediately I receive this information, I will contact you for more details.
Thank you.

Sincerely
Sergeant David Villiami

I swear they just do it for a laugh these days.

Looks a cast iron certainty to me. Go for it, how hard can it be, what can possibly go wrong?

Congratulations.

Spam, great I love reading spam emails. I wonder if anyone else has ever had a spam email?

[Grumpy old git]

Be fair, he doesn't actually say Bagdad is in the South Pacific, he says Tonga is.

Sounds like a fantastic opportunity

You must be lucky to not get any, personally I think they're bloody hilarious.

And he went through that humongous box and counted EVERY SINGLE NOTE


Which would be a few decades work alone...

The Iraqui likely died of a hernia, a giant 170kg* box of cash isn't easy to run with.

*assuming all cash is in $100 bills
