A new scam gets by the spam filter…

Subject: response neededI am Capt Bruce F. Nickerson with the US marine here in Iraq,I need your help in moving a huge amount of money out of Iraq,So please contact me via usmarine01477@yahoo.cn only
A few things:
- I seriously doubt a captain in the United States Marine Corps would ever use a phrase like “with the US marine here in Iraq”
- Why a Yahoo China email address?
- What does Woojin Lee have to do with this?
This scam email was sent from a computer at Arizona State University and there is a Woojin Lee on the faculty of ASU. I bet Woojin Lee’s email has been hacked or someone with access to a computer at ASU put Woojin Lee’s email in the “From” field of this scam email.
