New Internet scam from Nigeria to Iraq

Well those scam artists moved to Iraq with their unclaimed fortune. Now they are an NCO in the 3rd Infantry stationed in Iraq and have come upon Sadam's hidden fortune and he wants to share it with you. I guess Nigeria got to hot for them. [:(!][:(!]

They game is to send you a real looking but fake certified check for more than the amount if on receipt you send them a certified check for less.

They send you a check for $10,000. if you send them back a check or wire transfer for $5000. Thus, it looks like you'll keep $5,000 for your efforts. Trick is that the check they send you is fake. But it takes your bank a week or more to verify that it is fake. By that time they have your $5,000 and you have a fake $10,000, check.
