second mail

Thanks for your good reply...?
we were told on the presence of a sudden some Shia militant camp on the outskirts of town not too far from our camp here in Syria, resulting in a gun battle with them, two of six people were killed and three were seriously injured, the remaining militants fled. Unfortunately, I lost two people in my unit. In the process of interrogating the rebels were wounded, they claimed to be a rebel to Muqtada Al-Sadr and took us to a cave where we recovered 20 foot containers of ammunition and cash in United States Currency, We are ten remaining soldiers who made the attack, my own share of the money is $ 500,000 dollars) here in Syria, we just send the money through the diplomat,I say this because I believe in you and you are a real woman i can trust, my family members very evil that wants to kill me if I send this money to them,so afraid to send this large amount of money to them to save for me, the money I give you 50% on the money, helping me and saving the remaining money for me. As a military officer, I can not show off with such amount of cash it needs to get honest people who will receive the funds on my behalf to our assignment in Syria will be concluded in the ext six months. here in our camp we could only communicate through our military communication facilities and all calls are monitored and will be the best way to communicate via email, It is very important that you keep the details to yourself. The maximum secrecy is what I need from you to successfully complete the delivery found to your destination thanks i wait to hear from you again.
