Transfer Of $25,000,000 MILLIONS To You

[kjv1611]

This isn't me asking for help, but rather I thought the spam/phishing attempt pretty funny:

From: someweirdname@802.cz
To: undisclosed-recipients

Subject: Transfer of $25,000,000 MILLIONS To You

I am Sgt.Eric White,serving in the Engineering military unit in Ba'qubah in
Iraq.We found some money.The only thing we require from you is to help us.
your detail Email:ericwhite#####@9.cn

here's what all I noticed so far about it:
[OL][LI]Seems strange they'd type out all the 0s, and THEN add on MILLIONS... so what is it then, multiples of 25 sextillian or something?[/LI]
[LI]"the Engineering military"? Really?[/LI]
[LI]Okay, so the guy is in some weird military, who fights against buildings I suppose, he's in Iraq, BUT he's using an email from a Chinese domain??? Actually, he's emailing from a Czech Republic domain, and tells me to email him at his Chinese domain email?[/LI]
[LI]Eric White - both somewhat common names, but not TOO common, I guess..[/LI]
[LI]Obviously the grammar is off the charts... well, spelling is alright, but punctuation? The sender is period happy.[/LI]
[LI]So this guy I don't know is part of some strange military unit/operation, and THEY [we] just happened to find 25 whatever dollars? And now they want to just send it to me, and a list of other undisclosed unknown folks? What are the chances?? Who needs the lottery?![/LI][/OL]

So, anybody see anything else? Or anybody think I'm going too far in dissecting this one? Really, it's just out of curiosity, but I imagine that'd be a part of the process of building email protection against such..

And, as I said, it served as a good laugh.

Looks normal to me, can you forward it so I can send him money?

I'm in - need to pay off some bills.

Ahhh............. Scam alert. Press DELETE do not read, no forward, just delete. Yes, you are going to far, but it keeps your brain active.
