I recieved an email from a soldier who says he has money from Saddam needs some place to send it.is it a scam?

A Marine wants information such as address, Phone #, copy of ID. He sent me his millitary ID and a copy of his Drivers license. I believe it is a scam. Should I report to local iaw inforcement?

Big time scam.





This has been going around for years.
Reply:You should report it to the FBI. They are the agency responsible for this. It is especially important since this email contains a copy of a military member's ID (purportedly anyway). I fully believe this is a scam. However, this could be an actual copy of a real Marine's information which is troubling. By reporting it, you could be protecting the Marine. Please go to the link below and forward the email to the appropriate authorities.
Reply:It is a scam, if not then the Marine is trying to do something illegal. Don't get involved, or if you do report it to the proper authorities.

Don't bother with your local law enforcement, go right to the FBI. You can report it here:

Of course it is a scam!


I don't care how good his military ID looks he is not a marine. He is most likely some scam artist working from an internet cafe somewhere in Africa.
Reply:Yes this is a big scam. I would delete it and don't sent them anything.
Reply:yes, and to Marines (he is most likely not a marine), and if using a forged ID card, he may get caught on that account
Reply:It's a scam,
