Received this shit today:


Hi, My Friend
I am Anderson D. Clinton, an officer of the U.S Army. I am writing you this email from Kabul, Afghanistan as the last batch of our men just left Iraq. I have some items I will need to ship to you. I am in possession of two boxes that contain $10.7M bucks. I was among US soldiers that found some stash of money around the hood of the Iraqi dead dictator when we were first deployed in Iraq. Although our men returned money to the US army which was subsequently returned to the Iraqi treasury; but we weren't stupid to give in all the money. Though I am scary telling you about this on email. But the one question is, Can you be trusted?

For clarity of what Im talking about, check this news link below;

shitty bbc link

So I need someone that is not related to me, to help me pull this cash out, everything is ready, I just need someone I can trust because we have lost a box of gold to someone that said he will help us last time and I won't like to make the same mistake.

If you can handle this deal let me know immediately, you will receive 20% of the money and you don't have to pay me any money, all you need to do is to find a safe place where you can keep the box till I finish my duty here. . Get back to me immediately with this email Id (shitty gmail link)

Respectfully,
2LT Anderson Darrell Clinton
United States Marine Corps. Kabul

It seems tottaly legit, what do you guys think I should do? And how can I stock this amount of money for him?

EDIT: whattafuck? why the last line went bold???

It doesn't have "a prince" so much as many princes. There are numerous royale families with kings that rule over regions or clans (except in the Mulsim parts, which have "emirs" instead). The children of kings are called princes - I'm not sure how many generations that title persists from there on. The central government, however, is not controlled by royalty as far as I know.

I think you'd make more money telling the government a 2nd Lieutenant named Anderson Darrell Clinton confessed to stealing money...

But of course that would imply he exists in the first place.

It's bolded so you see he is military and probably take it this more seriously.

I find it hilarious that he speaks of trust yet you are a complete stranger. I am not sure what is sadder. The people who write these or the people who fall for them.

Why would you even have to go THAT far. When has anyone told you "Hey random citizen, if you help me transfer this rather large sum of money, ill give you a bunch of money!"

People that fall for this crap really need to get off the internet. People like that is what causes my emails to get flooded with BS 429 scams...

Thats scam. You know why? Because if he was among first US soldiers in Iraq (2003), there is absolutely no possibility that he is still second lieutenant. Poor scam.

He would discharged long time ago, there is NO way he can be 2LT after 9 yers.

I don't get that. Maybe he's competent enough for his job, but not competent enough to move up. Why would he be promoted because "oh, he's spent a while at this position, let's bump him up out of pity"?

I think that may be how it actually works. After a few years, if you haven't done anything to get you kicked out, you automatically get promoted. Of course, this is coming from what I kind of remember my brother and dad telling me, so I could be wrong.

He raped a general's daughter. That's why he is still a 2LT.

This dick should have done a wiki research on US Armed Forces.

First of all, is he an army officer or a marine officer? They belong to two completely different branches of the US military.

Second, from what I know, after you finish your Iraqi tour, you go back home. You don't go to Afghanistan.

Third, Iraq was invaded in 2003. Why the hell will there be any money lying around 9 years later?

Fourth, no officer in the US military will speak such atrocious English.

Fifth, how the fuck can he be a 2LT after a decade long army/marine career? He raped a general's daughter and got stuck as a 2LT?
