I need your assistance. My name is SGT. Marcus R. Alford and I'm with the Engineering unit here in Ba'qubah in Iraq for the United States. I have about 9.5 million US dollars that I want to move out of the country. I need a good partner, someone I can trust to actualize this venture. The money is from oil deal and legal.
But I am moving it by diplomatic means to your house directly or a safe and secured location of your choice using diplomat. But can I trust you? Once the funds get to you, you take your 30% out and keep 70% until i come to meet with you. Your part of this deal is to find a safe place where the funds can be sent to. Mine is sending it to you.
If you are interested reply and I will give you more details.
Urgently awaiting your response.

What Is This?
This Email with the Subject "Can I Trust You?" was
received in one of Scamdex's honeypot email accounts on Mon, 22 Aug 2011 05:56:42 -0700 and has been classified as a
Generic Scam Email. The sender shows as "SGT. MARCUS ALFORD" <marcus.alford00@att.net>,
although that address was probably spoofed. We recommend that you do not attempt to contact any persons or organizations referenced in

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
