G'day
I have received the below, but because I am an illegal alien (who happens to
be an Australian citizen) I would not be eligible to win the car.
I would not have a clue whether this is legitimate or not, but know doubt
you blokes will throw it around for a time.

Subject: Austin--Healey Raffle
I am the President of Chapter 93, Special Forces Association in Waco, Texas.
We are an tax exempt veterans organization recognized under the Internal
Revenue Code provision 501(c)(19). We are the association of old Green
Berets, to give you an idea of who we are. One of our main purposes is to
provide assistance to veterans and their families, particularly those
families of deceased or disabled veterans. As a means of raising funds to
support our projects, I have made available my restored 1960 Austin-Healey
BT7 for the Chapter. We will be raffling off the car on September 7, 2009
here in Waco. We have only very recently received the 2009 Membership
Directory from the AHCA, and I got your contact information from that
directory. I am contacting you as one of the officers of each AHCA Chapter
or as an advertiser listed in the directory in hopes you can help us reach
our goal. I ask the chapter officers to forward this email to their chapter
members as well. My purpose of course is to solicit ticket sales in a hurry.
The car is antique white with a new black soft top, and a white hard top. It
also with side curtains. I have owned this car for approximately 13 years
and it has continually been garaged and never since driven in the rain or on
wet streets. There is no rust on this car as far as I know. It was restored
prior to my purchase of it, but since owning the car, I have put fewer than
5,000 miles on it. The odometer reads 88,000 miles. I am 62 years old and
was injured in Iraq in 2003 so driving the car long distances has become too
burdensome. Thus, the idea to assist my Chapter in a fund raiser.
We are limiting the number of tickets to 500 maximum. However we have only
sold about 230 so far. Tickets are $100.00 each. If you would like to buy
some tickets, please send your check payable to Chapter 93, SFA to me and I
will complete your ticket stub and send it back to you. I will also send you
a copy of the completed ticket for your records, a copy of the rules, and an
Entrant Acknowledgment form for you to sign and return. This form is
verifying that you are a legal resident of the US. The car will not go to an
illegal alien. When you send your check, please include your daytime contact
information, address and email address. We have sold tickets all over the US
using this method and have had no complaints. The original drawing date was
set for July 4, but we had not sold enough tickets at that time so the
Chapter extended the date to September 7. I say this because when you
receive your ticket portion, it will state the July 4 date. You need not be
present to win.
I am attaching a copy of the flier which shows pictures of the car. Thanks
for your consideration, participation and assistance in helping us help the
veteran community. Even if you cannot help us by buying a ticket, please
forward this to your email addresses so they can consider participating.
Thanks,
Jon
