I received this e-mail yeterday:


Gooday,

Let this mail not appear unsolicited to you.This is no joke.It is for
real.

My name is Dr.Druce Gabbar, a private war detective & supervisor to
American and British Soldiers in currently serving in Iraq. I am
contacting you on behalf of two American soldiers who during the
operation "capture Saddam" had a Golden opportunity to move
$28,000,000.00 (Twenty eight million US dollars) belonging to Saddam.

This money has been moved from a container to a secured location.The
funds has been kept safely defaced in a printing and minting company
in
Bermuda officially linked to US treasury department.Click on this link
to read more news about the existence of the funds found in Baghdad:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm.

Basically these two soldiers are working for the American Government
and their banking activities are strictly monitored.Therefore, getting
the total funds into United States in their names is virtually NOT
possible.Hence the reason, I have been requested to contact any
reliable person to help get the funds delivered safely for investment
purposes.Your role to assist is having the funds delivered to you(in
your residence) where it will be invested and managed on their behalf
by you. Also it is imperative to let you know that this deal is hitch
free.

Please if you are interested get back to me ASAP for more details and
the procedures of the transaction.If otherwise, please discard this
email.

Please reply back with this address:neleg01@hotmail.com

Your urgent response is been awaited.
Dr.Druce.



Can you even believe this?? These scammers will resort to anything!

Do you know that I have won the Irish Lottery, the British Lottery-at least 10 times, the Austrailian Lottery and even the Nigerian Lottery.

If all this were truly for real, I would have more money than Oprah!

That's not fair. I only won the British lottery twice! Undecided

Why not just go to London and look this guy up...

I was really hoping the lottery thing would pan out. I could use a little extra cash....

It's getting ridiculous.  I like to leave one of my mailboxes open in case I forget to unblock an address when I give someone my contact.  Just a couple of hours ago, I got 8 scam e-mails.   Tongue Tongue Tongue
