May you live in interesting times
Quiet here at the moment - due to me being busy, busy, busy - both on the work side but also in a time-consuming project of renovating a house before me move in sometime in the Summer.
Nevertheless this email just hit my inbox and it's so good, I have to share.
Dear Sir,
I have managed to sneak out this email to you from my confinement here in one of our military bases in Germany.My name is Col.Steve Moore of The US Army. I was based in Iraq until recently,I was sent back to Germany because of the Iraqi prisoner abuse scandal in which I was unfortunately implicated. I am still under House Arrest,pending the outcome of investigation.
During my sojourn in Iraq, I was able to successfully smuggle US$ 21.7m out of Iraq to a location in Europe. I reckoned that being a soldier I would not be in the best position to give a satisfactory account of how I came about such an amount of money.I could therefore not conclude the proccess of securing the money before I was apprehended as I was at a loss about into which account one could pay it and that is where your assistance comes in.
I have resolved to share the total sum with you in the fairest ratio that we shall both agree on as settlement for your own part of the deal....
Amazing how well the spam writers adapt their subject-matter according to world-politics. A pity the talent is so wasted.

Hi,
Du kennst Leute...
Dann sollte das mit der Renovierung doch ein Klacks sein, oder?
Gruß,
Tommy
