Typical (apart from the poetic "caves of war") advance fee fraud based on a real news story.

Greetings from the caves of war. My name is Sgt Oscar Brown I am an American
soldier, serving in the military with the army's 3rd infantry division based
in Iraq/ Baghdad. With a very desperate need for assistance, I have summed up
courage to contact you. I found you on the list of contacts for soldiers to
contact for support and prayers. I am seeking your kind assistance to move
the sum of ( $ 15 Million U.S. Dollars ) Fifteen Million United State Dollars
to United States soil, as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe
in your care until I complete my service here.
Source Of Money:
Some money in various currencies was discovered in barrels at a farmhouse
near one of Saddam's old palaces in Tikrit-Iraq during a rescue operation,
this money has been kept somewhere outside Baghdad for some time but with the
proposed troop in increase by president Barrack Obama, to end the suicide
bombing and make peace with Iraq militant and terrorist ,we are afraid that
the money may be discovered hence we want to move this money to you for
safekeeping pending the completion of our assignment here. BELIEVE ME, IF YOU
WERE IN MY BOOTS AND YOU CAME ACROSS SUCH AN OPPORTUNITY, U'D DO THE SAME
SHIT.YOU WILL FIND THE STORY OF THIS MONEY ON THE WEB ADDRESS BELOW;
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm
No Compensation can make up for the risk we have taken with our lives in this
hell hole. I have to let you know that everything on earth is a risk. I
pledged when I was joining the military to defend the United States of
America and her territories even if i have to die which is exactly what we
here in Iraq are doing. Please note that this transaction is 100% real.
All I require is your honest; cooperation and Sincerity to enable us see this
deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate
arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law as it is a 100%
risk free venture.
Kindly indicate your interest in assisting a fellow American. I will like you
to send to me your full contact details,
Your full names------------------
Address, -----------------
Contact telephone----------
For my record so that I can know how to position myself to make sure this
deal is brought to a logical conclusion with out any hitch
One passionate appeal I will make to you is not to discuss this matter with
anybody, should you have reasons to reject this offer, please and please
destroy this message as any leakage of this information will be too bad for
us soldier here in Iraq. I do not know how long we will remain here, and I
have been shot, wounded and survived two suicide bomb attacks by the special
grace of God, this and other reasons I will mention later has prompted me to
reach out for help,
I need you to confirm to me your percentage or how much you will take for
your assistance and for the charity in your next mail to me, which should be
as soon as you get this mail. I will settle for 20% - $2.4million; I’m not
greedy.
I honestly want this matter to be resolved ASAP, please contact me as soon as
possible with my private email address which is my only way of communication

Thanks and God bless us all.
