A New Version of the Money Scam

I just got this email. Interesting variation of the scam.

My name is Sgt.Phillip Newman. and I am in the Engineering military unit here in Ba'qubah in Iraq, I found your address through my countries international Web directory. We need your help please. this venture. Basically we are working for the government now in Iraq, we cannot keep these funds, The most important thing is that can we trust you? I hope my email meets you well. I am in need of your assistance.I am in the Engineering military unit here in Ba'qubah in Iraq, we have some amount of funds that we want to move out of the Iraq. but we want to transfer and move the funds to you, so that you can keep it for us in your safe account or an offshore account. But we are moving it through Diplomatic means, to send it to your house directly or a bank of your choice using Diplomatic Courier Service.
Once the funds get to you, you take your 30% out and keep our own 70%. Your own part of this deal is to find a safe place where the funds can be sent to. Our own part is sending it to you.If you are interested i will furnish you with more details.

But the whole process is simple and we must keep a low profile at all times. Waiting for your urgent response
