Default They're At It Again!
It's been awhile since I got one of these emails. This one has a new twist:

"My name is Capt. Michael P. Brabner an officer in the US Army,presently serving with the 82nd Airborne Division Peace keeping force in Iraq.I am on the move to Afghanistan and i really need your help in assisting me with the safe keeping of two military trunk boxes which has just arrived the USA. will explain further as soon as you respond.
Capt. Michael P. Brabner"

I just have to know what's in those trunks. I'm so glad one of our wonderful soldiers is willing to trust me.

Sweet, and all he wants are your social security and pin numbers. How can you lose? You're on easy street now, Steve.

Don't project. He hasn't asked for anything.

Do it. Best experience of my life. It cost me my savings, mutual fund investments, a mortage foreclosure and I had to cash in my 401K at 30 years old, but when my beloved adoptees arrive any day now it will totally be worth it. Totally.

Obviously trustworthy, if he's an officer and all.

Let's see. Mystery trunks with real live army goodies, adoptable kids from who-knows-where, and five million dollars guaranteed by the FBI.

How could life get any better?

Two trunks, you said, why does a movie pop up in my head?

Can't remember the name of the movie, but this woman, got to take a trunk from point A(I science lab I think) to point B. She is not allowed to open it, but she does and find a child or was it a embryor
