By manipulating the IP and sent from address they have been able to make the email appear to have been sent from Germany 217.160.212.201 Germany* this is interesting seeing as the scammer is suggesting he is in Iraq

Dear Sir,
My name is Sgt,Collin Smith. I am an American soldier with Swiss

background,serving in the military in the Army Camp Speicher Tikrit, IRAQ. With
a very desperate need for assistance, I have summed up courage to contact you. I
found your contact particulars in an address journal I am seeking your kind
assistance to move the sum of (USD$52,000,000 )Fifty-two million United States
dollars to you, as far as I can be assured that my share will be safe in your
care until I complete my service here, this is no stolen money, and there are no
risk or danger involved.
Source of money:
Lots of 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, and it was agreed by staff Sgt, Kenneth buff and I that some part of
this money be shared among both of us before informing anybody about it since
both of us saw the money first. This was quite an illegal thing to do, but I
tell you what? No compensation can make up for the risk we have taken with our
lives in this hell hole, Of which my brother in-law was killed by a road side
bomb last week. You will find the story of this money on the web address below;
http://www.voanews.com/burmese/archive/ ... 20-1-1.cfm
The above figure was given to me as my share, and to conceal this kind of
money became a problem for me, so with the help of a British Diplomat working
here and his office enjoys some immunity, I was able to move the money to a
Finance company in Asia as a diplomatic package. He did not know the real
contents of the package, and believes that it is family valuables belonging to a
medical doctor who died in a raid here in Iraq, and before giving up, trusted me
to hand over the package to his family. The Finance company are now waiting for
us to provide the name of beneficiary who they will transfer the funds to. The
reason I want you to claim the funds on my behalf is that as a soldier, I cannot
present a concrete evidence on how I made such a big amount of money down here.
Besides the US Government is trying their best to keep their eyes on soldiers
here inorder to effect a high level of discipline among us.The moment I am sure
that you are willing to assist me, I will give you the information of the
Finance
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
soldiers 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 your help, I honestly want this matter to be resolved immediately. please
contact me as soon as possible, my only way of communication presently is [email protected]
Yours in Service,
SGT,Collin Smith
