hahaha this email made me smile today :
I am Anthony Cortese,an American soldier, I am serving in the military of the 1st Armoured Division in Iraq , I and my fellow superior moved funds found in a container here in iraq. we deducted from the the total sum $5,000,000.00 (five million US dollars) each. Click on this link to read about even that took place here:-

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 pending our soonest arrival.
We will divide the total funds in three ways, since we are 3 that are involved. This means that you will take 20%, I will take 40%, and my superior will take 40%. . 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 with the full details, my job is to find a good partner that we can trust as you know we still in active service as this highly classified.
Hmmm,, let me think about this ..

I battle these guys on my rental sites almost on a daily basis. I pretty much know how they think right now and I have tons of traps for them within my sites to capture lots of data. But they are a pain.
I created a rental scam detection tool if anyone is interested:

Reminded me of this article back in 2004 where a scammer was tricked into joining the intended victim’s made-up church (the church of the painted breast), send a photo of himself with a painted chest to prove he had joined the church and even paid $80 for processing fees.

Attention: Fund beneficiary.
This is an official advice from the FBI, Foreign Remittance/Telegraphic Dept. (FRTD). It has come to our notice that the Oceanic Bank and C.B.N (Central Bank of Nigeria) Africa has released your Inheritance/Contract Payment of 10,500,000.00 U.S Dollars into Bank of America in your name as the beneficiary.
The bank in Africa basically knowing that they do not have enough facilities to effect this payment from Europe to your account used what is called SECRET DIPLOMATIC TRANSIT PAYMENT (S.T.D.P) to pay this fund through wire transfer. They are still waiting for final confirmation from you on the already transferred funds, to enable them credit your account accordingly….”
Oh FBI.. I’m getting some email like that for everyday
