Hello,
I am Major Ralph Harland, I am a British officer attached to coalition force in Iraq, I am the commanding officer of the First Battalion from Royal Irish Regiment, as you may know everyday, there are several cases of insurgent&#8217;s attacks and suicide bombs going on here.

We managed to Move funds belonging to some demised persons who were attacked and killed through insurgent attacks. The total amount is US$46 Million dollars in cash. We want to move this money to you, so that you may keep our share for us until when we shall come over to meet you.

We will take 60%, my partner and I. You take 40%. No strings attached, just help us move it out of Iraq, Iraq is a war zone.

We plan on using Diplomatic courier and shipping the money out in two large metallic boxes, using diplomatic immunity. If you are interested I will send you the full details; my job is to find a good partner that we can trust and that will assist us. Can I trust you?

When you receive this letter, kindly send me an e-mail([email protected]) signifying your interest including your most confidential telephone/fax numbers for quick communication and also your contact details.
This business is 100% risk free.

Respectfully,
Major Ralph Harland

KA-CHING!

Dear Mr. Harland,

I read your e-mail this morning and must say that I was deeply moved.

As a terminally sick man I have suffered several setbacks in my life: my children are both on crack, my wife left me for another man after my sickness prevented me to satisfy her and my kitten, my only companion, drowned in a nearby pond just a couple of days ago. I see this opportunity to do good to society and help our boys in the Middle East (I'm a Falkland war veteran myself).

Please provide me with more info on how to help.

Yours sincerely,

Rony Roddson

The trap is set, gentlemen. Now we just wait.

Dear Rony Roddson,

Thanks for the response to my request for assistance, my partner and I request your sincerity on this transaction also there should be no third parties for security reasons; we had made plans on shipping the funds out of Iraq via a diplomatic courier service in two metallic boxes.

Before I proceed, I request that you send a scan copy of any of your identity for me to know whom I am dealing with as this is a huge amount of money, I will also send you a scan copy of my international passport and picture of the funds in the boxes arranged for shipment.

Also your direct telephone number is needed for the shipment and the delivery address where the boxes will be delivered by the diplomat; on the receipt of the above requests I will proceed with the shipment and send you the receipt of the shipment.

Respectfully,

Major Ralph Harland

Dear Mr. Harland,

It does me great pleasure that you contacted me this soon. Hereby enclosed is a copy of my passport which I hope will help you to put trust in me.
I am sorry for not giving you a phone number as my sickness has caused temporary hearing disabilities, so I do not own a phone-machine.

Hoping to hear from you asap.

PS I just saw on CNN that the sun is shining in Iraq. That must be nice for you and the chaps!

Yours sincerely,

Rony Roddson

I just love to put in some blatant violations to the English language and not being caught on it by my victim!

Lo and behold my MSPainted passport:

This thread is too good not to be stuck

This thread is too good not to be stuck

In that case I hope this thread will deliver...

Something glorious happenend btw: my fake ID seems to have caught "Major Harland" off guard. You should know that these scammers work with scripts and the point of scambaiting is to get these scammers off-script. Normally this is quite difficult but this rookie is already clueless after his third mail. Time enough to mess with his mind.

My dear Mathew,

Thanks for your response , just like i told you the money is in two metallic boxes and will be shipped through diplomatic courier service as diplomatic consignment.

Your i.d card will be used by us to know your way about if something goes wrong and it will also be used by the diplomat who will deliver the consignment to identify the receiver of the consignment.

Send me your telephone number and your contact address, i have not seen a passport like yours. How on earth do you want me to trust a man with tons of stories in his mouth like you, what about your address?, or do you live in a ship on the high sea, may be your illness dont let you live with people.How do you wish to receive the consignment without an address, i think is better you get real so we can do business together.
Do not worry yourself, this is risk free business as long as trust is maintained and we may conclude this transaction this week or sometime next week.

Thanks and God bless you

Major white

This guy is trying to combat me with sarcasm. Thus we fight fire with fire:

Dear Mr. Harland,

How could you do this? I do all the necessary measures to get this business started and you accuse me of derailing our venture... You asked me for a passport, I gave you the only thing I could find which was copiable (as British passports are copy-protected since recently in case of fraude. I thought you knew this?). You ask for a phone number, I tell you I don't have a phone-machine nor a cellphone-machine because of my illness. And still you are not pleased? Re-read your last mail and tell me where you asked for my contact adress? Can't find it? THIS IS BECAUSE YOU DID NOT ASK FOR IT! And still you say this is a reason why you think I can't be trusted. I feel violated, Mr. Harland, but because I still believe in this risk free business, here is my contact adress:

49 Featherstone Street
LONDON
EC1Y 8SY
GREAT BRITAIN

Will this do? If so, I'd like you to provide me with some more information in your next mail. Untill now, I have no clue what is expected from me. Will this involve drugs? Child prostitution? WMD's? Newts? I, for one, do not know and I hope you will solve this problem of knowledge.

Yours sincerely,

Rony Roddson
