of Iraq to a security firm for deposit.
You don't have to be afraid of anything as no one else knows about this and everything is safe.
I would be pleased and grateful to you if you could assist us in receiving this box for us on our behalf as I will be heading back soon to camp in Iraq to join my Colleagues.
Of course, I will give you some money for your efforts. We have limited time now, kindly get back to me immediately. Moving the funds out of here is not going to be a problem as arrangements are being made towards that.
All I want from you is your trust and assurance that if the box gets to you, You can keep it in a safe place until our arrival. I have to stop here for now, as your response will determine our
subsequent correspondence.
