Another twist on a Nigerian 419 scam...

[channelmaniac]

Urg...

Will this shit ever stop? If idiots would stop sending them money they would stop sending this crap.

Good day to you,


My name is Sgt.Lee Boyd.I am an American soldier, i am serving in the military of the 1st Armored Division in Iraq, we have just been posted to leave Iraq and go back to Germany.. I am now in Kuwait at the mean time, I and my superior moved funds belonging to Saddam Hussein, the total is $25,000,000.00 (Twenty Five million US dollars) this money is being kept safe in a security company.

Basically since we are working for the government we cannot keep these funds, but we want to transfer and move the funds to you, so that you can keep it for us in your safe account or an offshore account. We will divide the total funds in three ways, since we are 3 that is involved. This means that you will take 30%, I will take 30%, and my superior will take 30%. 10% will be kept aside for expenses.


This business is confidential, and it should not be discussed with anyone.There is no risk involved whatsoever. 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 and also your contact details.

This business is risk free.
Respectfully submitted
Sgt.Lee Boyd

I seem to get about 2 Nigerian 419 scam emails a week. So far, I'm batting 100% on getting them killed within 48 hours of receving them by reporting them to the email provider - Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.

This one however, is a different twist - using the Army's name.

I think you ought to report back to them that you have already received 100 billion in fund to you unmarked accounts and that you are no longer interested in any more money exchanges.

[cam76034]

I always hold out for 60%

[trickyrix]

HOLY SHIT! You mean Sgt Boyd isn't really going to wire me the $25 million?!?!?

[Darron65]

I always ask them to fax me the money.

[Miatamaniac92]

I brought my money back in a connex!


No questions asked.

If your real good, you can get money from them first or get embarrassing photos.

haha and I dont think the US army is sending anyone in Iraq back to Germany....not with that $20k sign on bonus for shipping out in 3 months they are running right now.

[Miatamaniac92]

The units are shipped back to Germany if they deployed from Germany. That's where their family is stationed.

That's odd. I participated in one of these things and it worked like a charm! I gave them $5,000 and they promise the $25M will be wired to me by Saturday.
