    I won't say what my first thoughts were my dear FLYBOJ and Erich but it's NOT suitable for printing. Bad as it is when using civilian people but when doing this to the men and women risking their lifes out there for others....even the devil would blush and tell me to watch my language.

    Oh, I delete these as soon as I get them, believe you me.

    It is a complete fake. This has actually been circulating around for several years now.

    When I get those they usually follow with another - "Mr. so and so has left a million dollars in your name so contact us, etc." They are after your bank account information or want you to send "tax" money, then they claim you'll get the big prize.

    scam

    Have you got the e-mail address it came from? If i had it i could turn it over to army CID. being that they are possibly using the name of a real unit and soldier i think they might be interested in this.

    I am sure that CID allready has it and has investigated this. This has been around for awhile and CID is pretty aware of things.
