Subject: FROM DAVID FITTE.
FROM: Sgt. David Smith Fitte
Important Message
To President / Managing Director.
Good day,
My name is David Smith Fitte, I am an American soldier, I am serving in
the military of the 1st Armored Division in Iraq, as you know we are
being attacked by insurgents everyday and car bombs. We managed to move
funds belonging to Saddam Hussein’s family. The total amount is US$25
Million dollars in cash, mostly 100 dollar bills. We want to move this
money to you, so that you may invest it for us and keep our share for
banking.
We will take 60%, my partner and I. You take the other 40%. No strings
attached, just help us move it out of Iraq, Iraq is a war zone. We plan
on using diplomatic courier and shipping the money out in one large
silver box, using diplomatic immunity.
If you are interested I will send you the full details, my job is to
find a good partner that we can trust and that will assist us. Can I
trust you? When you receive this letter, kindly send me an e-mail
signifying your interest including your most confidential telephone/fax
numbers
for quick communication also your contact details. This business is
risk free. The box can be shipped out in 48hrs.
Respectfully,
Sgt. David.
