These types of scams really get me . I have cut and pasted it from my email:
| Quote: | FROM: Sgt. Smith David Fitte,
Important Message,
Good day,
My name is David Smith Fitte, I am an American soldier, I am serving in the military of the 1st Armored Division in Iraq , as you know we are being attacked by insurgents everyday and car bombs. We managed to move funds belonging to Saddam Hussein's family in 2003. The total amount is US$25 Million dollars in cash, mostly 100 dollar bills, this money has been kept somewhere outside Baghdad for sometime but with the recent troop increase by president Bush, we are afraid that the money will be discovered hence we want to move this money to you for safe keeping pending the completion of our assignment here. You can go to this web link toread about events that took place there:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm
We are ready to compensate you with good percentage of the funds, No strings attached, just for you to help us move it out of Iraq. Iraq is a war zone, so we plan on using diplomatic means to shipping the money out as military cargo, using diplomatic immunity. 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 numbers for quick communication also your contact details.
This business is risk free.
With regards from,
Sgt. David Smith Fitte

It look like this could be reported to the FBI fraud unit, or somewhere!! I hate when people use this type of email, and we have so many soldiers dying for our freedom, so they can do this!..karen

I think I read somewhere that you can go to their website and they have links for complaints, but may be wrong

Now they are stooping to using our military soldiers on these scams. That is just sad!

These scams are hitting an all-time low. In order to get you attention they will try anything. I have had offers of money transfers from widows, pastors, christian women, administrators of banks and leaders of every African nation in the world! But when I received this one from Sgt. Fitte...I thought how low can you get. I really hope someone or something can put a stop to this..it's gone too far.
banks..magistrates..you name it! I also got one from Sgt. Fitte...mom and I believe this is really low!
