Greetings Most Esteemed Partner,

I am sorry for my late response to your mail, you have to know that
down here we have been having a very busy week,but every thing is
alright now.there are things i must let you know about on this deal.
and reason why i am seeking for your Partnership.

Before we proceed let me take a little time to explain the origin of
these funds and why I'm sending them to you. During our war campaign
in Iraq my team was responsible for a lot of raids on Saddam (Iraqi
former president) palaces and while one of such raids was going we
discovered the sum of $140 Million dollars packed into military trunk
boxes and hidden in Saddam's underground secret chambers. As a soldier
my first instinct was to report this to my commanding officer but on a
second thought I have sacrificed years of my life to serving and
protecting my great country, most of us have lost friends and loved
ones in the line of duty for me i have been married twice of which
none ever lasted for up to 3yrs due to the nature of my job. My 16yr
old son turned to drugs as he lacked parental guidance and eventually
died from overdose as a matter of fact i can't begin to mention all my
sacrifices and losses but know that the glory of America is built on
our pain & blood this is why i decided to use this opportunity to make
some fortune for myself since the funds belonged to an ex tyrant whom
we captured and has been executed by the International court of
justice. As the leader of my unit i reported $100million dollars out
of the funds we discovered and used my position to ship the remaining
$40million dollars to you for safekeeping until after my assignment as
we have been deployed to Afghanistan to help out in the on going war
on terror.

I know you might be wandering how i got your information for this,
well i am a level six holder, and i have access to the Department Of
Defense Database (DOD) data base, and I believe I can trust you not
only as a citizen of America but also for you been someone i can
trust. With that,i decided to send this boxes to you via a secured
delivery company,It is most important that you take this deal very
seriously. i know i may have crossed the line by shipping the boxes to
you without your consent but the deed is already done,this happened
due to the rush down here,as we have been deployed to Afghanistan to
assist on the on going war against terrorism, with that i had to rush
things up, and i was unable to let you know before now,please accept
my apologies about that. The boxes were sent via Swift Military
Courier as a special and secured immunity delivery to you, it was done
this way so as to avoid hackers on line from tracking the boxes and
sending them to the wrong person.I must assure you that you will
benefit very well and you will never regret assisting me, but on the
other hand you MUST be very careful never to expose this deal
otherwise we would both be in serious trouble. Apart from any
carelessness from your side, i have already made solid plans to ensure
that this deal is 100% untraceable. Your efforts and assistance will
be rewarded with 30% of the money if you are able to handle this deal
and keep the boxes safe until i return to the U.S. I already took care
of all shipping expenses including insurance and delivery cost all you
need to do is contact the delivery man so that he can give you the
details of the status of the boxes.

Please i got a confirmation that the boxes are presently in the USA,
Have you heard from the delivery man yet? Below is his contact
details. contact him and forward your receiving address to him for immediate
delivery down to your house.

Please try and be fast with whatever you are doing we don't have all
the time in the world. and all the fees has already been taking care
of by me,and all i need is your full trust and assurance that the
boxes would be safe with you.

I need us to build up this deal in an atmosphere of trust between
ourselves, you do not know how much smile the content of your mail has
brought to me today,and i want to let you know that you would never
regret assisting me in this deal, i am a man of my words, and i love
sticking to my words. Prior to now, i had already taking care of all
the necessary payment needed for this as far as i am concerned, it is
never my wish that you spend your money on this deal trying to help me
out.

Yes i am willing to really compensate you for your kind assistance in
helping me with the safe keeping of this boxes until my arrival back
to the USA, these boxes has a secret combination code which i would
forward you with as soon as i get a confirmation from you that you
have received the boxes. I chose to do this with you because i feel
you can be trusted, and you match the whole criteria i need in making
this deal a success.

I know you might be wandering why i did not send to my family, well i
need you to know that the only Family i have is my only daughter that
is just 16 and my Mum whom is presently 85 and not strong enough. Most
of my friends are all in the US army,and you know the confidentiality
of this deal, so they must know nothing about the deal.

Please Partner I have $40million in those boxes. Please let me know if
this is going to work out, and also if you are trust worthy, The boxes
are in the USA now, and it has your name on it and all the legal paper
works that proves you as the rightful receiver of the boxes. Any
information you want please let me know. Note: If you are equal to
this tax you have to keep this as a little secret until this boxes get
to your door step. Even the Delivery man shouldn't know the content of
this boxes as he is not aware that the boxes contain raw cash, because
i made it clear to them that you are my cousin whom i am sending my
personal military effects, so no one knows nothing about this,and
also, for security reasons, i feel it would be best we take care of
this via e-mails,because making calls might be risky as our
conversation might be monitored or tapped into. Thanks

Please do keep me updated as soon as you have contacted the delivery man.

Thanks for your cooperation, God bless you and God bless America !!
