Default Soldier in IRAQ wants help getting money out?

e never posted to this site, so I am not sure I am doing this correctly. I apologize if it is wrong or not sent correctly.
I am attaching this email to see if there is any information on this type of possible scam or/and illegal activity.
Has anyone received anything like this?
Thank you for any information.




Dear Friend,

As you very well know, Iraq is gradually undergoing a rebuilding process in some parts and there is much need for reconstruction. I am Robert Clarke from the hospitality state (Mississippi), an army contractor attached to the US Military force for the sole purpose of reconstruction works in some parts of Iraq. I evaluate the level of destruction and offer professional advice in line with the way they intend rebuilding. With no doubt, work has been risky and challenging as we sometimes collide head on with armed insurgents and loose some soldiers during confrontation.

On the early hours of 4th September 2008 I lost a friend whom I had known for 12years during one of these confrontations. It was a very sad day but at about 1100hrs during a normal inspection routine along Haifa Street, built and occupied by the late Saddam Hussein while he was still alive and one of the hide outs of the Al Qaeda and Ayman al-Zawahiri forces. I, alongside with 3 soldiers proceeded to a marked site and as I commenced evaluation under close guard by the 3 soldiers, I discovered an unusual bulge in a cellar, which I presumed to be storage room and as I proceeded to have a closer look at it, I kicked a metal covering and found several metal boxes (6 in number) piled on top each other and locked with a padlock.

On forcing the boxes open, we discovered several armoured weapons including bullets. One of the boxes was filled with hard drugs (heroine) and two to my amazement was filled with money. On discovery of this money, I and the soldiers for close to 3 hours counted the bundles of the currencies which amounted to about $23.5M.I believe however that all these belongs to the Al Qaeda and Ayman al-Zawahiri forces, and because of this reason, I instructed the soldiers with me to handover all the boxes containing the drugs and amours to our superiors in the US army and agreed to keep the funds to ourselves, so as to help establish ourselves when we return from Iraq. Presently, we have the money hidden in a safe and untraceable location only known to us.

Why I am explaining all our findings to you is to seek for your assistance and immense contribution to the actualization of our dream of getting these funds out from here. We are in desperate need of a reliable and trustworthy person who will receive, secure and protect these boxes containing the money for us until our assignment ends here. Since Iraq is getting unsafe and more dangerous every day, we cannot afford to leave these boxes here in Iraq for any reason and knowing full well that these were funds used in sponsoring terrorist attacks on our innocent citizens. We have no idea what could happen next as everything remains inconclusive at this point. This is a true story of what we came across here in Iraq. I intend to include some pictures I took here and my ID's issued by the US army and government for you to know better whom you are dealing with but I will include that in my next email to you. I assure and promise to give you 20% of this fund before sharing with the other 3 soldiers when we leave thi

Regards,
Robert Clarke

Angry Another military scam .

@cakko47, Welcome to 419legal. This is a scam, there has been an increase of this type of scam recently where a scammer pretends to be a member of the USA military.

He will start to ask for "fee's" and other charge's to receive the money that does NOT exist.
Later on many of these low life scammers start to threaten victims with arrest by the customs agents or the FBI if the victim does not send the money .

Best to just delete the message and stop all contact with these scum
