Three Kings

[Let 'er eat!]

I receive lots of scam emails - I thought this one was creative enough to share:
Dear Sir,

With a very desperate need for assistance, I have summed up courage to contact
you.

I am an army Sgt. from Fort Hood Tx. now serving with the third infantry
contingent mission stationed in Iraq, I actually found your contact particulars
in an address journal.

I am seeking your experience and assistance to evacuate the sum of £13..5
million pounds sterlings to the USA or any other safe country.
This is no stolen funds, and there are no risks involved.
SOURCE:
------
During the third month of the raid here in Iraq, Myself and a few other
soldiers while conducting a routine search in a location near one of Saddam,s
old palaces, uncovered large sums of money buried in barrels, with piles
of weapons and ammunitions, we agreed not to turn over the cash, and so
shared it amongst ourselves, although this was kind of illegal, but there
is no kind of compensation that can make up for the risks we have taken
with our lives in this hell hole.

I was given the sum of £13.5 million pounds sterlings as my own share, and
had nowhere to conceal such bulk monies here, so had to employ the services
of a broker, a British national, introduced to me by a German contact,
the said broker facilitated the movement of the funds to a safer location
entirely out of problem area, and would assist you to get the funds to safety.

What he knows is that the funds belongs to an Asian American who died in
the war, and trusted me to turn over the money to his family, thats all.


One passionate appeal I will make to you is not to discuss this matter with
a third party, should you have reasons to reject this offer, please destroy
this mail, as any leakage of this information will be too bad for us.
I do not know for how long we will remain here, and I have survived 2 suicide
bomb attacks by the whiskers, hence my resolve to contact somebody to help
out.

It maybe difficult for us to communicate frequently for security reasons,
hence as soon as I am sure you are willing to help, I will link you up with
the broker, who will work with you to get the money into your care.
We will also discuss your price when it is convenient to do so.

In the meantime, please contact me through my email so we can discuss.


Respectfully,

Alan

Where do I sign up? I want some sterlings...
$13 million pounds of sterling is a lot of sterling.
How much does a sterling weigh anyway?
