Afghanistan


Seriously? Smack, crack, and contraband heavy ordnance? And of course they've specified "serious enquiries [sic] only" for the high octane fuel and missiles. No tire kicker's allowed, apparently.

As post-Army, I already have a line on where to forward these things, and there's a decent reward if the tip turns up anything substantial, but the chances of that are slim. The sender of this email obviously shotgunned it when sending, since there were several other email addys that shared at least the first three or four first letters at my own. Had he or she known I'm post-Army (I hesitate to use the moniker "ex-Army", as it connotates someone who left the service under questionable conditions), this person would probably not have emailed me. Or maybe that's exactly why I was contacted, on the chance I was a "disgruntled" service member or something.

Anyway, if you get an email like this, for the love of Mike, print it out and give it to your local FBI office, or even your local Social Security office, since they could pass it right along to the FBI. This is definitely not your typical Nigerian Bank scam.

Lol, just noticed, "Not open to US Citizens". Right. Also, why aren't my italics working?

If i had to guess i'd say it's because you used the closing tags in the wrong order.
Hmmm... test...

EDIT: works, make sure your [ b] and [i] are in the right order.

It may not even be from an Afghani citizen. There are a few letters circulating from people claiming to be Marines stationed in Afghanistan or Iraq, needing money to buy a cell phone or something. My friend in Crypto told me that these come from everywhere. China, India, South America, etc.

Damuna: Italics don't work across paragraphs. You have to put them around every single paragraph. I'm sure that's a bug.
Doesn't matter, I guess bold text gets enough attention.
Now I am really pissed off. All I get are stupid viagra e-mails and even more stupid nonsensical spam. Why nobody offers me heroine? I want to buy some heroine online! Why are dealers so thick and have no online store? There is big unused territory ripe for taking.
Or am I mistaken? Is there some digital distribution service for heroine? If so, please post some links, I want to get my stuff from my home. If possible only DRM-free heroine sites please. Thanks.

Still, gotta love the new twist on the old "chop your dollar".
