amvg Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 i received this e-mail this morning >From Sgt Herman Hansley Camp MXP-512 Third Infantry Division UnitT.I.D.U, Abul Uruj, Baghdad, Iraq. I am Herman R Hansley, a native of Iraq. I am a Military Contractor with the America troop currently serving in the third infantry division Unit in Iraq. I am currently on duty break. My partner Darren D. Braswell,36, of Riverdale, Ga., died Jan. 7th near TalAfar, Iraq, when the UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter in which he was a Passenger crashed. Braswell worked For the Army and Air Force Exchange Service, before his death We secretly moved some abandoned cash in a mansion belonging to the former president, Saddam Hussein and the total cash is US$20,200,000.00 Twenty Million two hundred thousand Dollars. As I write this letter to you, these boxes are in Security Company as I secretly moved it out of Baghdad to safe place. Sir I seek your consent to help me move this money to your country location. You do not have to be afraid of anything as no one else knows about this and everything is safe. I would be pleased and grateful to you if you could assist me and my late partner Darren D. Braswel in receiving this boxes for us on your behalf as I will be heading back soon to camp in Iraq to join my colleagues. Of course, I shall compensate you with an attractive percent of the total funds for your role/efforts. We have limited time now as you know that our evacuation agreement is been negotiated by the USA and IRAQI government, kindly get back to me immediately. Moving the funds out of the security company is not going to be much of a problem as arrangements are being made towards that. All I want from you is your trust, Please get back to me with your full name Contact phone number Preferable without delay and let’s negotiate terms. Your response will determine our subsequent correspondence. You can read more on this website for more information and explanations: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm Yours in Service.

ArtistsRifles Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 A US Army Sgt with a .it (thansley@virgilio.it) e-mail address - thats about as believable as Gordon Brown saying there were going to be universal tax cuts!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john fox Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 (edited) got to give good'ole Herman :trustme: the credit for linking it to a real story though, first time I've ever seen the scam backed up by a hint real money actually existed I just hope Darren D Braswell is not real as well, in that case RIP EDIT - just looked at google. This is sick, he was real and died as stated, I hope Herman :argh: goes the way of his WW2 namesake Edited April 28, 2009 by john fox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
