An odd and tailored scam

[Great War truck]

This seems tailored to people in our hobby. Has anybody else received a message like this one:

 

Hello

 

My name is Valery, I am 45 years old, I live in Russia.

I found your e-mail address on the Internet, and decided to write you this letter.

I served in the Army in 1984 in Afghanistan and lost in the war right.

Now I am disabled 3 groups.

At that time our country was still the Soviet Union and I served in the Soviet army.

Over the years our country was at war in Afghanistan, killing many

Moss peers and druzey.God war I remember as a nightmare.

From early childhood I was interested in military equipment and collected

information about the armed forces of other countries, as well as marine and air fleets.

I am interested in military educational institutions and associations of war veterans.

I want to ask you to send me information about the armed forces of their country,

magazines, catalogs, brochures and photographs.

It would be nice to get a souvenir gift from your souvenirs with symbols of your military, patches, and icons depicting your country's flag, t-shirt size L.

I think that a third world war will never happen, and our mothers will not lament their sons.

I hope that my small request remains unanswered.

My postal address is:

 

The country: RUSSIA

City:Balashov

postal address: F.Engelsa 26 – 1

postal code:412316

Is this sent via some west African country promising to offload millions into your bank account? If so then it is probably genuine lol:cool2:
