This one claiming he is a reporter in Iraq. This is a new one for me, so thought I would post it.

Dear Sir/Madam,

I got your contact from the World Trade Organization directory of the
US, Canada & European Union and I am very sorry to interrupt your peace
Since you are not expecting to receive any mail from me. However, I was
obliged to do so due to the importance and urgency of the message. I
crave your indulgence, and want to reasure you that I mean well and
that it is only for our mutual good. So please do not be embarrassed.

My name is Frank J. Smith, I am a British Citizen, Reporter and
Photo-Journalist attached to the United Kingdom military. I am writing
this message from Ar-ramadi in Iraq. We hit Iraq in May 12, 2003 and
have moved around a few times building up F.O.B. around the western
side of the country as well as missions into Baghdad, with attacks by
insurgents everyday and car bombs, we managed to move funds belonging
to Saddam Hussein’s family which we found in his palace shortly after
his arrest, The total amount is US$25 Million dollars in cash, mostly
100 dollar bills. We want to move this money out of Iraqi, since it is
a war zone although partially ended but the daily activities of suicide
bombers is frighteningly on the increase.

I reached an agreement with the members of my team whom are UN officials
and we agreed to keep this money to ourselves and then moved the box
out of Iraq to Europe or to any Bank in Canada (with their immunity as
UN officials they are not searched at borders or Airports). Now, I am
in need of a reliable and trustworthy person or company overseas whom I
can confidently work with since my work does not permit me to own a
foreign bank account or any personal business until retirement. I have
not finished my assignment and cannot return to the UK now.

I have the honor to confide this information in you and to
request for your pleasure to assist to receive and secure the money in
your account, pending our retirement from service.

I will send you a copy of my International Passport as a proof of
sincerity. You are therefore expected and advised to display high
degree of maturity,responsibility and understanding in handling this
information. I will give you all the details in my next mail when you
have indicated your interest and commitment to work with me. Always
remember that this is the highest confidence and trust any person can
response on the other, especially when it is considered that we did not
know ourselves before.

I hope you will honor me too. We can come over to join you for sharing
and to guarantee that we have unlimited access to you before and when
the funds hit your account. Moreso for an effective and easy
communication I will advice that you furnish me with your phone numbers
and other necessary details to make me rest assured that you are
geniune.

I eagerly await your positive response.

Respectfully,

FRANK J. SMITH
Reporting from Ar-ramadi
Iraq.
PROPOSAL FROM WAR-TORN IRAQ

Anyway, this MORON obviously does not realize he could not have gotten my contact info from any trade organizations for the US, Canada or Europe, since I dont live in either of those places.
