Subject: Greetings
Greetings,
I am Captain Philip Camberwell of the US Marine Force on Monitoring and Peacekeeping mission in Baghdad-iraq. On the 26th day of October 2006, we were alerted on the sudden presence of some terrorists camping in a suburb not too far from Karbala here in Iraq . After immediate intervention, we captured three (3) of the Terrorists, twenty-six (26) were killed leaving seven (7) injured.
In the process of torture they confessed being rebels for late Ayman al-Zawahiri and took us to a cave in Karbala which served as their camp. Here we recovered several guns, bombs and other Ammunitions including some boxes among which two contains suspected nuclear weapons, one filled with hard drugs(cocaine) and the other four to my amazement contain some US Dollars amounting to $12.6Million after I and two of my junior intelligent officers counted them. I however used my position and with a help of an associate move the box consignment that contain the cash amount of $12.6Million out to an unspecified Security company company locatated in Europe depending when we find a reliable and trusted person who can travel in a short notice on our behalf to the location for claim.
I am in keen need of a Reliable and "Trustworthy" person like you who would receive, secure and protect these boxes containing the US Dollars for me up on till my assignment elapses here in Iraq . I assure and promise to give you 14% of this fund, however feel free to negotiate what you wish to have as your percentage in this business. Further details shall be given to you as soon as you acknowledge the receipt of this mail and your willingness to proceed with me on these respect.
Capt. Philip Camberwell.
