This advice just came in, it may suck in those that are taken by surprise.....
VERY IMPORTANT, READ IT CAREFULLY
Visa / MasterCard FRAUD
Just a heads up for everyone regarding the latest in Visa fraud. Royal Bank received this communication about the newest scam. This is happening in southern Alberta right now and moving
This one is pretty slick since they provide YOU with all the information, except the one piece they want..
Note, the callers do not ask for your card number; they already have it.
This information is worth reading By understanding how the VISA & MasterCard telephone Credit Card Scam works, you'll be better prepared to protect yourself. One of our employees was called on Wednesday from 'VISA', and I was called on Thursday from 'MasterCard'.
The scam works like this:
Person calling says - 'This is (name), and I'm calling from the Security and Fraud Department at VISA. My Badge number is 12460, Your card has been flagged for an unusual purchase pattern, and I'm calling to verify. This would be on your VISA card which was issued by (name of bank). Did you purchase an Anti-Telemarketing Device for $497.99 from a marketing company based in Arizona ?' When you say 'No', the caller continues with, 'Then we will be issuing a credit to your account. This is a company we have been watching and the charges range from $297 to $497, just under the $500 purchase pattern that flags most cards. Before your next statement, the credit will be sent to (gives you your address), is that correct?' You say 'yes'.
The caller continues - 'I will be starting a Fraud Investigation. If you have any questions, you should call the 1- 800 number listed on the back of your card (1-800-VISA) and ask for Security. You will need to refer to this Control Number. The caller then gives you a 6 digit number. 'Do you need me to read it again?'
Here's the IMPORTANT part on how the scam works - The caller then says, 'I need to verify you are in possession of your card'. He'll ask you to 'turn your card over and look for some numbers'. There are 7 numbers; the first 4 are part of your card number, the last 3 are the Security Numbers that verify you are the possessor of the card. These are the numbers you sometimes use to make Internet purchases to prove you have the card. The caller will ask you to read the last 3 numbers to him. After you tell the caller the 3 numbers, he'll say, 'That is correct, I just needed to verify that the card has not been lost or stolen, and that you still have your card Do you have any other questions?'
After you say no, the caller then thanks you and states, 'Don't hesitate to call back if you do', and hangs up. You actually say very little, and they never ask for or tell you the card number. But after we were called on Wednesday, we called back. Within 20 minutes to ask a question. Are we were glad we did! The REAL VISA Security Department told us it was a scam and in the last 15 minutes a new purchase of $497.99 was charged to our card. We made a real fraud report and closed the VISA account. VISA is reissuing us a new number..
What the scammers want is the 3-digit PIN number on the back of the card. Don't give it to them. Instead, tell them you'll call VISA or Master Card directly for verification of their conversation..
The real VISA told us that they will never ask for anything on the card as they already know the information since they issued the card! If you give the scammers your 3 Digit PIN Number, you think you're receiving a credit; however, by the time you get your statement you'll see charges for purchases you didn't make, and by then it's almost too late and/or more difficult to actually file a fraud report.
What makes this more remarkable is that on Thursday, I got a call from a 'Jason Richardson of MasterCard' with a word-for-word repeat of the VISA Scam. This time I didn't let him finish. I hung up! We filed a police report, as instructed by VISA. The police said they are taking several of these reports daily! They also urged us to tell everybody we know that this scam is happening. I dealt with a similar situation this morning, with the caller telling me that $3,097 had been charged to my account for plane tickets to Spain , and so on through the above routine..
It appears that this Is a very active scam, and evidently quite successful.
-
this one is a bit like pyramid selling - has been around previously.
Hey Geoff - I will be in SA - make sure you bring some of those beers with you that you owe me :D
-
Speaking of new-old scams, here's another one that I've encountered twice in the last few weeks...
The caller will identify themselves as employees of some official sounding computer organisation, or even Microsoft. They'll ask for you by name, and know the postal address. They'll then start crapping on about a spate of computer virus infections in your area (because computer viruses work via postcode, right).
They then try to insist that you turn on the computer and allow them to talk you through the 'fix'. Obviously I never went that far, but from what I gather this usually results in the dupe paying for some useless virus protection, or being infected with some kind of malware.
No-one is ever going to call you to tell you there's a virus, or some other problem with your computer!
Once you start asking questions of the caller, (i.e. who are you really? what is your number so I can call back later? etc) in my experience they just hang up.
On the face of it, it's a pretty obvious scam, but I could see how some people might be taken in by it.

-
Yeah, they've tried that one on us twice recently. The general trend is that if you're rude to them, they don’t try again. My dad did the " no thanks" about four times before he got rude and they left him alone. It only took my wife two goes before she got rude, and so far, so good.
So just in case you needed an excuse to swear at a scammer...
-
I also got a call from someone claiming to be from Telstra stating that their mail hasn't been getting through to me. (The bills do) They wanted me to verify who I was D.O.B. etc. Even had an Indian accent.
-
There is a Charger R/T for $10,000 doing the rounds also.
-
Phttt, I have no problems if I lose a little money from a few cards because I have millions coming to my bank account from some lost Nigerian deceased estate account next week - and it only cost me $600 to set up the new account to receive it! Win!!
-
Got a smoke alarm ;) yep make them hold on for few seconds with some bullshit excuse, place receiver face down on said alarm.... press test button ;)
-
cheapracer how lucky are you ;D if you are now so rich please send me 3 of your frames regards Iainyz . ps Ive had the microsoft scam tried on me let them go on for a few mins then said sorry I use mac the rude person hung up on me, no fun .

No one rings me :'(.

i copped that bullshit awhile back,i just told them i didn't have a compoota,that stuffed her up (chick with indian accent),i'm thinking how would she know from looking me up in the phone book??, :P
-
Yeah we get that all the time in Japan, some Indian calls up, they know your name from our company website and they start wanting other peoples details, titles, positions etc.... I would imagine they are either preparing data bases to sell on or they have a template that gives them enough information to knock off your identity.
Who knows some guy in a turban even today may be turning up at Kingsford Smith with an Aussie Passport calling himself Matcho Mick and has copies of your drivers license and credit cards. ;D
-
the biggest scam of all is being overcharged by Telstra and then trying to get it fixed!!!!!!!!!!
-
Interesting thing about the Indians.
They may actually be legit. ::)
The story going around is that they have been HIRED to ring and are just doing the job according to the contract. :o
Why spend all day ringing when someone will do it for you for a few bucks and you are isolated from the mugs.
-

My first guess was that they are preparing data bases to be sold later on the 'information market', it is probably the people who are paying them that I would be more worried about ..... Jahovahs Wittnesses ???
-
Any time you answer the phone & theres a few seconds delay before anyone replies you know it's either from china or india, our workshop foreman wised me up to that one & so far I'd say he'd be 100% correct
-
Speaking of China, there's an advertising scam daily here where you get a phone call, usually a single ring that you miss or don't even hear and of course your phone has a 'missed call'. Happens about 4 or 5 times every day (and I mean a 24 hour day).
Many people will ring the number back and it's a bloody recorded advertising message that's just cost you a call and them nothing.
I am less than amused when this happens in the middle of the night when I'm asleep, I don't ring the number back of course but I check the phone to make sure it wasn't family.
-

I've recognise that as well and I hang up without waiting for the spiel or any unpleasantness ;).
Even local computer generated dial ups have the delay before an operator speaks - you snooze, you lose ;D.

Some of the scamers probably
use legit call centers to do their ringing around.

You can pick the time lapse all right, unfortunately I get the occasional legit call from overseas so I have to sit through the intro to be sure.
What about the ones that have a machine ring you and put you on hold until they are ready to talk to you? I rip through those ones which puts their spiel off balance, and then I hang up.
-
A few days ago I was at home and the house phone rang. I answered it and there was a few seconds silence so I suspected it was a telemarketer. Normally I would be polite however I was in a bad mood so I yelled down the phone something like "stop fuggin ringing me ya carnz" and hung up thinking that was the end of that.
A few seconds later the phone rings again and I think to myself "you've got to be kidding" but I answered it out of curiosity only to have my wife ask me if I was going to tell her to stop fuggin ringing again .... oops :-[ :)

All good Curly .. she saw the funny side of it particularly as her mobile was playing up and is what caused the delay or lack of communication.
Caravan or not mate, it's too cold to be sleeping outside the house at the moment ..... god it's almost too cold to go into the man cave to work on the bikes :)
Anyway, sorry for getting off topic a bit.
-
I'm shocked ! what you are trying to say is that there are crooks out there trying rip me off. I can't believe that why just the other day i had a call from my bank manager saying i was overdrawn he thought it was someone ripping me off turns out i just spend to much on my bikes. and he also adds that my credit card is safe as it is maxed out also. ;D
-

Yeah, yeah, I know - it's only a half mil and it's English clams shells, but still £500,000.00 ;D

My mum has early stage Dementia. In recent times I have had to take over paying her bills. I f I get hold of the slimey bastard that conned her into changing electricity retailers look out. It's bad enough to con Joe Average but when these "salesmen" con the frail and the elderly it makes my blood boil. The next "spin bowler" who rings while I'm having tea is going to cop it big time!!! Irrational I know but jeez it sticks in my throat. J
-
What we do is when we think its about the right time for calls with a time delay followed by a friendly asian voice [who speaks to you by name] we let it go to answer. When the caller hangs up you know it was another one.
One bloke I was talking to said when he gets a call from them when he is covered in grease under a car he tells them ' hang on a minute I'll get him for you', then leaves the 'phone of the hook.
cheers pancho

I was out of reach of the phone a few times yesterday and decided to call back some of the numbers I missed.
2 of them were bloody call centres >:(

Aahhh, the old reverse scam trick! How many pipes did you sell Geoff? I'm sure you offered them a never to be repeated deal if the provided their card details immediately ;D

I got a new version of the "Nigerian Scam" email this morning, only this time it's the "Edinburgh Scam"
"The Scottish Investment Trust PLC

Edinburgh EH2 4NL,
United Kingdom .
I am Mr. John Kennedy, the Fund Executive Manager of Scottish Investment International UK. The World Largest Fund Management Company with over 1.2Trillion Capital Investment fund and most diversified private investment company in UK.
of course, they want you to ring their mobile number... (44 country code -= UK)

One of the young guys at work had a Coles-Myer Mastercard (run by AGC), and if he was late with a payment AGC would do the same thing - one short ring on his mobile, then when he called the missed call back they'd talk to him..
-
He wasn't too good with his money, and the calls were usually around the same date in the month..
In the end, if he was away from his desk during the last week of the month, if the phone rang once we'd let him know so he didn't waste his time/money ringing them back..
-
I also got a call from someone claiming to be from Telstra stating that their mail hasn't been getting through to me. (The bills do) They wanted me to verify who I was D.O.B. etc. Even had an Indian accent.
Well this morning my internet got shut down. Turns out this call was legit and my Bigpond bill hadn't been paid in 4 months. I have it tied in with the work account so I never see that bill. Somehow in the account update they had screwed up the address and were using the RP lot number.

If you where the same age and a very nice lonely person.

Dear Beloved,
Orphanage & Humanitarian Projects
I am Ms Sarah Ford from London UK, I am 65 years old and I am suffering from a long time cancer of the breast. I deposited some funds with a Security Company which I registered as a Family Treasure and I want you to also use this money to fund orphanages and widows.
My late husband was killed during the U.S raid against Terrorism in Afghanistan when he travelled to Afghanistan to monitor a Hospital/a Humanitarian Foundation (HHF) he was setting up for the benefit of the Afghan masses as of then, whose majority, and 99 percent of them are Muslims/ Islamic scholars and loyalists. During the period of our marriage we couldn't produce any child. My Late husband was very wealthy and after his death ,I inherited all his businesses and wealth, and when I noticed that my condition is not improving rather it gets worsen by the day, I decided to divide part of his wealth and deposited this funds with a Security Company here in UK
Therefore I went you to use this funds for the Orphanages and Widows. Once I hear from you then I shall forward to you the Contact details of the Security Company.
Waiting for your reply.
Regards.

A friend of mine who is otherwise an intelligent woman with a degree or two fell for this crap. FFS! as if I know the condition of your computer, while sitting in my garage :-) I can confirm that ABSOLUTELY NEVER will Microsoft or Apple or Google, etc. cold-call you and tell you they can fix a virus on your computer. They make enough from corporates, why would they call some grumpy old VMX type? or god forbid, his missus? :-)

Just checked that address on "Google Maps".
The building is back off the main street but is connected to the one in front and they both look to be the same height.
Only 5 stories high I'me afraid. :o
Unless it's the one behind which is the UK headquarters for some syko karate type people who rent their talents out worldwide. :o

Hardly a day goes by when I haven't either won the Scottish National Lottery, inhereted 20 million from my long lost cousin in Canada or been offered a couple of million in payment for helping my good friend Hassim el Jahood smuggle the Shahs diamond stash out of Lebanon.
FROM MRS YEETY BAYARMAA
Greetings Dearest Beloved,
I know that this letter may be a very big surprise to you, I came across your email contact from my personal search and I instructed the doctor here in this hospital to help me email you and i believe that you will be honest to fulfill my final wish before i will die.
I am Mrs. Yeety Bayarmaa, I am 66 years old, From Mongoila, and I am suffering from a long time cancer of the breast. From all indication my condition is really deteriorating, and my doctors have courageously advised me that I may not live beyond 3 month;
this is because the cancer has reached a critical stage.
I was married to late Dr Bayramaa Altangerel, gold & diamond exportation) in Burkina Faso, West Africa, where we live all our Lives for Thirty-two years before he died in the year2004. But is quite unfortunately, He died after a Cardiac Arteries Operation that lasted only for four days.
Since his death I decided not to re-marry, I deposited all the sum of $5.8million dollars with a Bank in Ouagadougou- Burkina Faso, where we spend our life together in Burkina Faso.
Presently, this money is still in their custody, and the management just wrote me as the Legitimate beneficiary to come forward to receive the money after keeping it for so long or rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to receive it on my behalf since I cannot come over as a result of my illness, or they get it confiscated.
Presently, I’m with my laptop in a hospital where I have been undergoing treatment. I have since lost my ability to do anything myself and my doctors have told me that I have only 3 month to live.
Now that i am about to end the race like this, without any family members and no child. It is my last wish to see that this money is invested, but you will assure me that you will take 50% of the money and give 50% to the orphanages home in your country for my heart to rest.
I want your good humanitarian, to also use this money to fund churches, orphanages and widows around. I must let you know that this was a very hard decision, but I had to take a bold step towards this issue because I have no further option. I hope you will help see my last wishes come true.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank. I will also issue you a letter of authority which will prove that you are the new beneficiary of my funds, and the documents concerning the deposit. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hope to hear from you soonest. I am waiting your response.
Yours Sick Sister in Christ,
Mrs. Yetty Bayarmaa.

Another phishing scam that's a little harder to spot is my getting emails from people that I know. Today I got one from Vaughn Fletcher but they're usually under the 'Brad van Barelo' or 'Bill Forsyth' but I've had three recently under the 'Vaughn Fletcher' title.
Todays phishmail, supposedly from Vaughn (but obviously not) has "Great" in the subject window and the following link in the message:
http://gogreenmobileshreddingblog.com/continentdictionarychristopherwiilson
caution::DON'T OPEN THE LINK even though I have changed it just in case.
These phishing emails are getting more plentiful, my cousin gets them from "Mark Firkin" but with the wrong email address so you could fall into a trap of thinking the email's a genuine item from a friend. BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU OPEN.

By coincidence this one arrived as I was writing my previous post... ::)

If you're dumb enough to be caught out by any of these scams you're probably not wise enough to be in control what little fortune you already have! :D

Don't tell me no one else has won the Spanish Lottery as a result of some nice bloke buying heaps of tickets in everyone elses name ???
I was fortunate enough to win 862 000 euro some time back and all I had to do to get my new found fortune was to send 400ruro to the nice man at the bank for a international tax clearance cert.
After googling I could not believe what I had found.
Pages and pages of morons who had sent the 400 clams to these crooks and all whining about being so dumb :o
Being a fun loving bloke I decided to call the nice man at the bank and find out about my loot.
After explaining to him that int tax certs were a thing of the past, I checked this out with the local postie, my new found friend happily explained how lucky I was as I only had to pay an int bank transfer fee of 350 and I was in!
I explained how my lowly ex mrs had taken me for everything and if he paid the 350 I would give him 5000 as I gift for helping me out.
After a knock back I slowly raised the offer to 50 000 and he said he would think about it.
Hoping the offer might be enough tio stitch up the boss ;)
A day or two later I received a call from the boss who told me in a very stern way that it was BAD to try and corrupt his employees :o
And you guessed it, the low bastards didn;t send me my winnings.
Just goes to show that you can'trust anyone ;D

Slightly different scam,
Australian Federal Police think they have uncovered a sophisticated counterfeiting ring operating in Australia. The perpetrators are suspected Irish Nationals that have tried this same scam in several other countries unsuccessfully. "We believe they have targeted Australia as we are far enough away from Europe to not know about this scam" stated the head of the Australian Anti-Counterfeit Task Force. The gangs Modus Operandi is to Go to Banks, Business's and other Institutions that handle large amounts of Australian currencies, In particular coinage. They collect large amounts of 50 cent coins and then expertly machine off all the corners on the coins. When this is done they pass off the coins to unsuspecting victims as 20 cent pieces.
Sorry, so sorry.

If people are gullible enough to get caught out but ANY of these get rich quick schemes then they've only got themselves to blame.
In my mind the biggest "SCAM" of all is that Juliar is only thinking of our best interest's instead of her own re election.
She has already achieved her personal objective and doesn't give a shit if she is re elected this time around, which she never has, but don't start me.
Her yearly income has increased by a third since she stabbed K'Rudd up the arse and surprise surprise, she'll recieve that every year until she shuffles off this mortal coil.
As much as I dislike Gough, Bob and even Kev, they deserve a pension more than than that Scrubber.
The only thing she has going for her is that her MAN likes Speedway.

Or not. I've got two cartons on Australians not being stupid enough to elect him and another carton on him causing a recsssion within six months of his (possible) election.
I really, really want win those first to cartons, but could not be happier to hand over the third....
Anyhow, my friends, I have both an important bridge in sydney that I wish to sell at a bargain price and a reliable Maico. I am seeking buyers for these valuable commodities and am offering you a rare opportunity for only $100,000 for the Maico and $1,000,000 for the bridge.

Nathan I think you got the prices on the "wink wink insider" deals back to front. ;) Then again only 1 million for a reliable Big M...that still sound very cheap and suss.....

When you add up the pro's and CON's (future CON's if we are talking labor) ,You would think the most current revalations relating to the good old NSW labor party (past and present), the current ICAC investigations and adding to that the Craig Thompson affair would be enough to discourage people from voting for the labor party.

Must have forgot the massive deliberate deception by a Government the Iraq War was who's idea it was ,just how much that's cost us , who signed the country up and what did it actualy achieve?

Do you remember Rob.. Askin?
-
Although I'm not aligned with either party , is this the person you ask about , Sir Robert William Askin GCMG,an Australian politician and the 32nd Premier of New South Wales from 1965 to 1975, the first representing the Liberal Party of Australia.
"Sir Robert William Askin GCMGA" was a politician , a very long time before before i was eligable to vote and a very very very long time from the current issues of endemic corruption.
"Sir Robert William Askin GCMGA" was rumoured to be aligned with the underworld , may be he was , maybe he wasnt , i do not really care , either way it does not have any bearing on the current state of politics in Australia.

Like you HVA, I am also a member of my 'One Member Party,' and I usually make up my mind which way to jump in the last couple of weeks before Election day.
I have been doing this for yonks basically since I took more notice of the political scene.
I mention the former inglorious Askin person merely to demonstrate that major corruption has been demonstrated through OZ political history and seems to have a stronger grip in the various state governments than in the Fed.
I was dissapointed to observe in the last term the lack of cooperation federally,
should have been to the great advantage if they all behaved.
(Just broke my rule of no politcal comment)
-

I also remember the rotten to the core Bjelke-Petersen conservative government in sunny Queensland. They had their fingers in just about every dodgy pie in Queensland, they were even selling knighthoods to anyone who had the readies for fluck sake. These dodgy governments are a large part of both sides of the political fence so what's happening now is just another chapter in the history of greedy politics in this country.

Just think if Gillard and Abbot lined up at your door and you had to decide, because of your health, which one you would give total control of all your worldly assetts and possession to. Which one would you choose?
Now transfer that to your country. You could have a good solid Australian family man who has functioned in the real world of volunteer organisations, raised a family, is part of seemingly stable and respectful long term ralationship, has significance experience as a senior federal minister and actually says things he means not what some focus group things should be said or Gillard ::)
His main crime seems to be that he is religious (Rudd is also religious) wears buggie smugglers (same as 90% of life savers), volunteers his time to RFS and Surf life saving, does not see wasting our money as a virtue, does not agree with about 80% of what Gillard and her bunch say and wants to return to an Australia that has a positive future. What a bastard :P ::)

All politicians are the same, will say whatever it takes to get into power then once their snout gets in the trough they do whatever they feel like knowing they've got a minimum of 3years to make as much on the side as possible

When the very corrupt Sir Joh was running QLD you could fall off your bike , be picked up by the ambulance , get taken to the PA hospital , get x rayed and stitched up and sent packing in less than 3 hrs.
And it was free :o :o
No medicare , just free.
Now you can fall off your bike and the chances are that you will die before they bother to look for you.
The labour party that followed Sir Joh fixed the selling of knighthoods.
They changed the name and gave them away.
But only to their mates and relles.

say what you like about sir joh
under his watch we where the richest state in aus
so what if he looked after his mates
just part of doing business

That is true to a point
Hawke, Keating, Howard were all Politicians that generally kept their word and always, if you agreed or not, worked along their parties basic beliefs and seemed to be trying to do the right thing for Australia. I personally did not like Keating or his policies in many instance but I did not ever feel that he was incompetent, a criminal or wanted to damage Australia.
The current Federal Government display all three virtually 100% of the time. From the very first actions in 2007 to the current debacle they have combined the above three characteristics to new heights. They have even surpassed the Whitlam years. In 2007 Australia elected a gimmick – Kevin 07- there was no substance. Whitlam was elected on a gimmick – It’s time –
The current Government have even glossed over Whitlam’s period and he is now portrayed as the great Labor leader and a confidant for Gillard. WTF he was the leader of a disgraced and sacked Government yet this current mob defer to his guidance.
This is headed for the dungeon ;D
-
We currently have the worst opposition in Government this country has ever seen.
I know this because we have the worst Government we have ever seen and yet the people are still reluctant to turn to the opposition.
-
The current Government have even glossed over Whitlam’s period and he is now portrayed as the great Labor leader and a confidant for Gillard
It's kinda ironic that today Malcolm Fraser and Gough are on a similar wave length. In a great interview on ABC radio a year or so ago Fraser said that he believed that Whitlam was a brilliant ideas man who did some very good things for Australia but was let down by the 'back room boys' and his blinkered faith in them even when a major mistake had been made..(the loans affair). The Whitlam era wasn't as bad as the spin of the time sold it. That's why EGW is today seen by historians as a progressive hero in Australian history and Malcolm Fraser is almost forgotten.......
My apologies for removing portions of this post....I just don't want to get into a slanging match over two forgettable political leaders (Gillard/Abbott). Piss Poor leaders and policies on both sides.

Governments and scams....Don't they go so nicely together ::)

Montenut: you are spot on.
Elsinoreyz: any comments said by me about joe bp are sincere and i think for the times that were, he got the job done.
I can honestly say that if i did my job to such a crap extent as gillard has then i really would not be putting my hand up for a new contract. i know people who have voted labour all of thier life and cannot believe that gillard stands there with her head high really trying to convince us that she has don a good job.

These scammers are among the biggest C**** around. Even more so when you see them use the story of a genuine, decent couple who it seems have had their generous deed exploited by scores of internet scumbag types.
Poor Mrs Large currently fighting cancer is obviously a good person - lets hope she gets cured to live out here life and anyone connected with exploiting them becomes a victim of something far more sinister.

The Paypal email scam is getting more refined. The idea is that you are notified that an unauthorised payment, a smallish amount, has been made on your account and you should log in via the supplied link to check the transaction out. This isn't new but they are adding a local buyer and item number now. The 'Paypal' page looks pretty good as well.....apart from the spelling of February being wrong.

My Name is Michael Foster. on 24 February 2013 I delivered my bike to an interested buyer who called me regarding my AD on Gumtree.
I fell victim to a false check. I got the confirmation sms from FNB to say that the money had been payed into my account. which I didnt think much of and left Bloemfontein for Johannesburg. i delivered my bike to a "Milton" tel no. "0724165035" and "Brian" tel no. "0762088525" are the guys. their numbers are active and they have the bike and will release it for cash. his address he gave me is : House number 204, Doris and York, Berea North Johannesburg. I'm from Durban and do not know Johannesburg that well. When i arrived there, Milton phoned and said his son, Brian< was at Soccer practice at Ellis Park Rugby Stadium and i should meet him there. i met Brian( Black male, dressed in his soccer kit, accomplice also black male, no name mentioned) at 10H30 in the morning, He said he is finishing soccer practice and his lift will pick him and the bike up later. I'm currently working in Bloemfontein so i offered to deliver the bike to him. upon arrival back in Bloem at about 16H00, i phoned Milton just to see if he got the bike and was happy. His reply was "the bike is with a private courier company". and then it sunk it. I quickly logged into my Online Banking account to find the funds had been deposited as a cheque at an ATM, and they were "pending" and uncleared. im only 19, my bike is all i had, and now i sit with Nothing.
These guys are professionals, they phone you enquiring about your bike and ask to see pictures, but never see the bike before they buy it, they ask for a full description of the bike, and these guys even went as far as to ask me to start the bike for them so that they could hear it and make sure the motor runs etc.
Upon further research I found various numbers and scam reports which match the same numbers that called me. 2 cases that stuck out involved a Enock Nkosi ( 0810496305) who also deposited a cheque at an East Gate ATM and collected the goods without the money being cleared, and people were caught out.
When Milton 1st called me, he requested i send him photo's. i got an email address which was mailto:[email protected] - [email protected] and also another being mailto:[email protected] - [email protected]. when i googled these email addresses a previous scam complaint had appeared involving a Jason Mathebula, ID no : 6308145635080, his cell no : 0833666782.
As far as i can see, these scams are mostly linked together, so there is a high rate of scamming going on, particularly on the Junkmail and Gumtree websites. I have recieved numerous phone calls from people who were worried, being in the middle of the deal and reading about my situation on various social media pages. Apparently these scammers are operating very heavily in the East Rand. They target Sound equipment as well as motorcycles.
My bike is a Blue Yamaha YZ250 2003. i do not have an engine number, but a frame number is : JYACG120000008763. its a 2 stroke. it has a skull sticker kit on it, and the number boards have " Foster 22" on them. i am not the first, and i gaurantee i wont be the last. if the cell phone numbers above are googled, matches are found on the website http://www.reacrime.co.za/ - www.reportacrime.co.za. from previous scams they have committed.
here is a scam ad that has a cell phone number match. http://www.automart.co.za/cars/for-sale/vw-golf-velocitimodel-2008-id-1037061 - http://www.automart.co.za/cars/for-sale/vw-golf-velocitimodel-2008-id-1037061
I have many fake ID's these guys use, a list of numbers and previous scams. Also, i have information (bank statements, police cases ETC) on a guy who was scammed out of his 2009 KX450F Fuel Injection for R39500. i am trying to collect as much information from as many people so that i can take it to Carte Blanche and hand it over, so we can stop this, or atleast reduce the business they are getting.
For further information or if you are interested in helping, please contact Michael : 0711206390.

How many other Mark Firkins are there, not too many according to Google.
I am Mr John Strong; I work with One Tracking ltd, a consulting Firm in London, UK. We are conducting a standard investigation involving a client who shares the same name with you.
The HSBC Private Banking client died intestate and nominated no next of kin to inherit the title over the investments. The essence of this communication is to request that you provide us information on these issues:
1-Are you aware of any relative/relation having the same surname,whose last known contact address was Madrid, Spain?
2-Are you aware of any investment of considerable value made by such a person at the HSBC Bank Plc.?
3-Can you establish beyond reasonable doubt your eligibility to assume status of next of kin to the deceased?
You must appreciate that we are constrained from providing you with more detailed information at this point.
Please respond to my private email [ [email protected] ] as soon as possible to afford us the opportunity to close this investigation.
Thank you for accommodating our enquiry.
Yours sincerely,
Mr john Strong.

Google "404" as its the american law against scams. there is a whole community who "engage" with the scammers, have pics of them and chat with them while they work on identifying them. The real shame is the poor loosers who get hooked...
In Nigeria you are a "Warnie / Boony/ jessa" if you rip off an american. its there new status symbol.
Romania on the other hand is the bus capital of scamming. there is a little outback town that has 10mill a week (yep) wired into it from us and euro scams. the ring leader "doesnt own a computer" its amazing...
this busted arse town has a new Merc / Audi and BMW dealership and Armani, d/g etc. it doesnt pay to mention scams though as a black merc will pull up, a couple of gun toting thugs will then see that you leaving right now!

I was selling my wifes 2010 Toyota on Gumtree and on ebay. I recieved a call from a lady advising she wished to purchase it, and made an offer. Requested I send her some more pictures to her email and mobile phone.
Did all that, then advised she wanted to send the car O.S for her son. I advised "no worries" you can do that after you pay for it. Wanted to pay paypal including shipping costs etc and sent quotes to me via email for shipping, offered handling fees etc.
Got an email for paypal, stating that funds were in my account to be cleared once shipping was organised and paid for by me ( was suppossed to be car price, shipping and handling in my paypal account)
I advised that I wanted cash in my bank, no cheques etc . At this point I made paypal and gumtree aware of the scam, which I had worked out long before, they didn't even flinch when I asked them to use my "work" email address ( [email protected] )
The paypal email,calls etc were all very professional.
You can't be too careful!!!!
Cheers
Kim :P

Greetings to you and your family, I am the manager of bill and exchange in THE BANK, I have a business of 5.5 Million United State Dollars to be transfer to your account for investment in your country, if you are ready to assist me get back to me, I will give you full details on how the fund will be transfer to you.
Be rest assured that everything will be handled confidentially because, this is a great opportunity we cannot afford to miss, as it will make our family profit a lot.
It has been 6 years go, that most of the greedy African Politicians used our bank to launder money overseas through the help of their Political advisers.
Most of the funds which they transferred out of the shores of Africa were gold and oil money that was supposed to have been used to develop the continent.
The Political advisers always inflated the amounts before transfer to foreign accounts so I also used the opportunity to divert part of the fund worth five million five hundred united state dollars I told you about and I am aware that there is no official trace of how much was transferred as all the accounts used for such transfers of fund at that particle time were closed after transfer.
I am the account officer to most of the politicians and when I discovered that they were using me to succeed in their greedy act, I also cleaned some of their banking records from the Bank files and no one
cared to ask me for the money was too much for them to control, as I am sending this message to you, I was able to divert five point five Millions Dollars ($5.5M) which is in an escrow transit account belonging to no one in the bank, and now my bank is very anxious to know the real beneficiary of the funds is for they have made a lot of profits with the fund.
It has been more than five years ago and most of the politicians are no longer in power again and they don’t use our bank to transfer funds overseas anymore since their tenure had expired.
The $5.5 Million United State Dollars has been lying in the bank as unclaimed fund and i will soon retire from the bank immediately the fund is transfer into your account over there.
Immediately the fund has been successfully transfer into your account i will come to your country for the sharing of the fund, the fund will be shared 50% for me and 40% for you, and the other 10% for the orphanages home and poor with less-privilege people.
Please know that there is no one that is going to question you about the fund if you will comply with me and follow my instruction which will help us a lot to achieve this goal for everything is well secured.
Please indicate your interest in this transaction by replying back and if you are not interested do not waste your time to reply kindly delete my message from your box ok.
Reply throught my email address [email protected]
Waiting to hear from you soon.
Yours Faithfully,
Mrs Marina Parma.

I think I love Ruki
Dearest One,
I am writing this mail to you with tears and sorrow from my heart. My name is Miss Ruki Kones, I'm 23yrs old female and I held from Kenya. My father was the former Kenyan road Minister. He and Assistant Minister of Home Affairs Lorna Laboso had been on board the Cessna 210, which was headed to Kericho and crashed in a remote area called Kajong'a, in western Kenya.The plane crashed on the Tuesday 10th, June, 2008.
You can read more about the crash through the below site:
http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/africa/06/10/kenya.crash/index.html
After the burial of my father, my stepmother and uncle conspired and sold my father's properties to a Switzerland Expertrate which they shared the money among themselves and live nothing for me. One faithful morning, I opened my father's briefcase and found out the documents which he have deposited huge amount of money in one Bank in Burkina Faso with my name as the next of kin.
I traveled to Burkina Faso to withdraw the money for a better life so that I can take care of myself and start a new life, on my arrival, the Bank Director whom I met in person told me that my father's instruction to the bank is that the money would only be release to me when I am married or present a trustee who will help me and invest the money overseas. I am in search of an honest and reliable person who will help me and stand as my trustee so that I will present him to the Bank for transfer of the money to his or her bank account overseas. I have chosen to contact you after my prayers and I believe that you will not betray my trust. But rather take me as your own sister.
Though you may wonder why I am so soon revealing myself to you without knowing you, well I will say that my mind convinced me that you may be the true person to help me. I will like to disclose much to you if you can help me to relocate to your country because my stepmother has threatened to assassinate me. The amount is($7.2 USD) Million United State Dollars, and I have confirmed from the bank in Burkina Faso on my arrival, You will also help me to place the money in a more profitable business venture in your Country. However, you will help by recommending a nice University in your country so that I can complete my studies.
It is my intention to compensate you with 30% of the total money for your services and the balance shall be my capital in your establishment. As soon as I receive your positive response showing your interest I will put things into action immediately. In the light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely. I'm waiting your urgent and positive response. Please do keep this only to your self.
I beg you not to disclose it till i come over because I am afraid of my wreaked stepmother who has threatened to kill me and have the money alone,I thank God Today that am out from my country (KENYA) but am now In (Burkina Faso) where my father deposited these money and i have confirmed from the bank with the Documents i have at hand i will send my picture to you in my next mail. In the light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction.
Yours sincerely

Scams - I've got a letter from a mob called Australian Tax Office and they want me to spend my time telling them how much I owe them for Bas and then pay them! I don't even know Bas!
-
I believe BAS is asking for a pay rise for the GST content an increase of 50% bringing it up to 15%.
-
Watch out for them, they have become cranky since Julia "got up em" and told them to hit those rich pricks hard and get "our money back"
they have been "here to help us" by instigating court "wind up " proceedings against anyone who may be a few days late with their "tax Payments".
a few years ago, they wouldnt give a toss about some late payments but with Julia about to retire, she wants her money "upfront"...
Make of that what you want but ATO will "have you" if you try to put them off to much.... :o >:( ;D :D ;) ??? ::)
-
Dito the tax office, I got one a couple of weeks back telling me that I need to pay up when in fact they owe me money ??? ???
And this one was legit :-\ :-\

All of these scams are known in the USA as 419 scams as that is the federal code for mail fraud.
There are several hilarious websites where people string these scumbags along and actually turn the tables by getting them to spend their own money in the hope of getting yours.
Have a read of some of the threads in "the trophy room" at http://www.419eater.com or the threads at http://www.419baiter.com
Hours of amusing reading.....

Dear Beloved,
INVESTMENT INQUIRY.
With due respect and humility I send you this letter. Please I indeed
sorry bothering you, Permit me a brief introduction, I believe on the
basis of my introduction you would understand the purpose of this letter.
I decided to contact you after my brief research through your country’s
information directory. I am Mr. Habib Wanko the son of the former Deputy
Defense Minister in my Country ( Sierra Leone ) who was assassinated
during the Civil War in Sierra Leone .
I have decided to arrange with you for the possible investment of some
FUND $15.5M ( Fifteen Million Five hundred thousand united states American
Dollars ) which happens to be the FUND sent to my Country through my late
Father as the Deputy Defense Minister for the purchase of ARMS &
AMMUNITION during the civil War But he was Assassinated before the
purchase . (Pls this is Secret).
This FUND has been deposited with the DIPPLOMATIC SECURITY TRUST FIRM
abroad by my father, as Family Treasure / Personal Effect. It was
deposited under my name as the Next of Kin to my Dad, we therefore now
decided to arrange an investment of this FUND outside my Country (Sierra
Leone ) according to the instruction of my Dad before his death.
I am therefore seeking your assistance to help us in investing this FUND
in your country, I and my mother have agreed that if you can act as the
beneficiary and assist us in re-transferring out the funds from the
Security Firm, you will receive 20% of the total sum or go into
partnership with the Family. Do not hesitate to reply when you find it
necessary that you can be of good help to us.
Kindly reach me through my personal email [email protected] pls this is
very urgent.
Yours Sincerely,
Mr. Habib Wanko

it's a shame some of the scammers are in the VMX business in Australia - but that is another story. I don't know how they do it but I recently had a part refund sent to me by a well know supplier who just simply could not deliver the goods. The very next day the part payment came into my paypal account I get an email from paypal saying your account has a problem and is about to be frozen. Went straight into my account and found nothing wrong. Of course Paypal are soooo easy to communicate with anyway. The next day got an email saying my account was frozen and if I wanted to use it again I had to supply passport, bank details, account details etc - again went into the paypal account nothing wrong.
Just coincidence it was when I got a deposit or what?

hey factunt,
Had a similar call the other week from someone posing as a Microsoft officer. they knew certain things about me like name address. They also told me to turn on MY PC as it had software issues. By chance i had just got a new PC and 8 the week prior. I asked them what version of windows i had. They could not tell me. Anyway I proceeded to ask the girl to "please put your male boss on so i can tell someone to go and f..k themself".
I then hung up.

I can't stop weeping for poor Grace.
My name is Mrs Grace Smart 75yrs old of age, i stay in new york
city, USA.I am a good merchant, I have several industrial companies
and good share in various banks in the world.I spend all my life on
investment and corporate business. all the way i lost my husband and two
beautiful kids in fatal accident that occur in November 5th 2008.
I am a very greedy woman with all cost i don't know much and care about

and give rest.
later in the year 2009 February i was sent a letter of medical check
up,as my personal Doctor testify that i have a lung cancer, which can
easily take off my life soon.I found it uneasy to survive myself,
because a lot of investment cannot be run and manage by me again. I quickly
call up a pastor/prophet to give me positive thinking on this
solution, as my adviser.He minister to me to share my properties ,wealth, to
motherless baby/orphanage homes/people that need money for survivor
both student that need money/ business woman and man for their
investment and for future rising. So i am writing this letter to people who
really need help from me both student in college, to contact me urgently.
so that i can make available preparation on that.especially women of
the day, who are divorced by their husband, why they cannot survive the
mist of feeding their-self.
please contact me and stop weeping. probably let me now what you
really need the money for, and if you can still help me to distribute
money to nearest orphanages homes near your town. now am so much with
God, am now born again. May you be blessed, as you reach me,please to
remind you, don't belongs to scams or any act of fraudulent on
Internet. I will give more information to you as i await your response

The best scam is the one where they make you put this little grey plastic thing on your windsceen that takes money out of your bank account evertime you drive down a road/bridge/tunnel that should of been payed for by the multiple road taxes that you pay.
The other good scam is where they send you pictures of your car demanding money, because in a effort to save wear and tear on said road that you are overpaying for, you apparently drove too quickly. (According to them.)

I recently got a telephone call from someone with a thick sub continental accent who purported to be from the Australian tax office stating that I was due some sort of ri-embursment that was generated from some sort of review about 6 months ago.
After a few questions they started to get a bit unravelled and I asked for their number to call them back and they hung up!
It started to sound pretty fishy right from the start and I supose their next question was my account details so they could deposit it but it didn't get that far....
Or
I could have just done myself out of some dough :D... but I suspect not!
I think in reality if the ATO owed me some money it would just arrive like any other refund
Cheers

I would tell the ex that you don't get out of bed for $5.5m let alone go to Egypt.
-
You're a dark horse Firko.
The stuff that comes out in later life. ;D
-
It seems that the peace agreement I've been secretly negotiating between the military and the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt has fallen on its arse but my old girlfriend Suze still thinks highly enough of me to trust me with her husbands dough..........
Hello my dearest Firko,
It's me, Mrs.Suzanne Mubarak,wife to the former President of Egypt,Mr.Hosni Mubarak, your girlfriend from the old days.
I need your assistance in the transfer of the sum of $5.5M which is presently been lodged in a financial institution Abroad.I wish to transfer this sum and come over to your country as soon as possible and plan how to move the rest of my husband's funds which are lodged in different bank accounts.
More details shall be given to you when I come over after the transfer of this $5.5M into your account.
Expecting your urgent response.
Best regards,
Suzanne M.
Don’t fall for it Firko, “It’s a trap”
$5.5 Mil wouldn’t be enough compensation for when you get your ex back in the bedroom and remove her Burqa to find out she’s actually a bloke wanting to claim refugee status

Despite the Burqha bit I don't reckon the $5.5m would be compensation enough for just having the ex back full stop.

Firko you son of gun!! ;) PS it's a pyramid scam......... ::)
-
Love this. Talking to a bloke this morning who has been in business for thirty odd years. In that time he has had some bad debts and some he reckons never had any intention of paying from the start, so in those cases if he can he passes their banking information on to the scammers.
Works for him.

Poor old Jules. my friend in Christ.
Dear Friend,
I warmly greet you.
Please forgive me if my plea sounds a little strange or unbelievable to you. My family attorney who could have handled the process of executing my WILL & TESTAMENT on my behalf died early this year after a protracted illness. I therefore prayed fervently and by the special grace of GOD, I got your email ID from your country's guest book. I am Mrs. Juliana Williams, a native of United Kingdom, I am 58 years old. I am suffering from protracted cancer of the lungs which has also affected part of my brain cells due to complications. From all indication, my condition has deteriorated and it is quite obvious according to my doctors that i may not live for the next couple of months, because my condition has gotten to a critical and life threatening stage.
I was orphaned at the age of four and was raised in an orphanage. I was married to my late husband Engineer. Steve Williams for twenty years without a child. STEVE had cardiovascular condition and died of cardiac arrest few years ago.I am a fervent Believer and a God fearing woman just like my late husband. Steve and i lived in Nigeria for over 18 years, where my husband a petrochemical engineer by profession worked and rose through the ranks to become an executive director with a multinational construction and oil servicing conglomerate, before his demise. He also established huge private investments that i assisted in managing.
Sequel to the unfortunate and shocking demise of my priceless husband, i decided as a rule not to re-marry. when my cancer ailment became terminal & more so because i do not have a next of kin to bequeath all that STEVE & i labored for, I sold off all our choice properties and other inherited belongings comprising of a shopping mall, an hotel, shares, bonds, jewelries and other valuable family treasures and deposited the proceeds amounting to USD$10,000,000.00 (TEN MILLION DOLLARS ONLY) with First Inland Bank of Nigeria plc. As i write this fund is still deposited with the bank. The management of the bank just wrote me as the sole owner because of the unserviceable status of the fund and suggested to me in a 2 paragraph statement to issue a letter of authorization to someone who can manage the fund on my behalf because of my ill health and also threatened that the fund could be confiscated upon my failure to adhere to their Banking rules and regulations within a stipulated time frame.
I am presently at the intensive care unit of a London hospital, located at Fulham road in west London. It is the leading cancer treatment hospital in the world and i have been undergoing treatment there for late-stage terminal cancer of the lungs. I am computer literate and was fortunate enough to have my personal laptop with me, hence I am writing from my sick bed. I rarely talk; my doctors told me that I have only few months to live, unless there is a divine intervention. It is my last WISH therefore to see that 90% of this fund is invested in any charitable organization of your choice and administered as you may deem fit, especially to the orphanage homes and homes for destitute and the mentally retarded. you can also extend some part of the funds to churches and mosques and to those struck by natural disaster, if you wish.10% of the fund could also be expended on cost of administration of WILL & TESTAMENT and also on logistic support and other sundry arrangements that you may require as soon as the fund
I crave your indulgence as a God fearing individual and as someone who cares for the less-privileged as much as i do, to take it upon yourself and use this fund for the above mentioned purposes, I took this painstaking decision in other to help humanity in my little capacity before i rest in peace in the bosom of GOD almighty. According to my physicians my time will soon be up.
As soon as I receive your reply and personal information as listed below, I shall give you the official contact of the First Inland Bank plc officials, to enable you contact the Bank without delays. I will also issue you with a letter of authorization, so that my bankers will recognize your status as the new beneficiary of the fund.
The letter of authorization will further prove that you are the new beneficiary of my ESTATE, WILL & TESTAMENT. the funds have an open beneficiary mandate and as such, it is whom i authorize or appoint to act on my behalf that the bank will recognize and release the funds to.Please assure me that you will not treat this offer with levity but will rather give my bequest continued existence.
Send the information in this order:
(1) Your full names: ==============================
=====
(2) Personal or official contact address:====================== =========
(3) Home or Office phone#:============Cell phone#:==========Fax#:=======
(4) Your Age: ===============
(5) Occupation:=================== ========

The markets must be looking up.... ive had two calls from "ol mate" who is the same guy but calls himself a different name depending on what he is flogging... oil futures, US dollars, gold hedging etc...he also says he is from a different place each time. when the boom was in full swing he was calling twice a month....
he only wanted 10K and he guaranteed it would be 13.5 by the end of the month and easily 20 in 3 months..
he sounds disappointed when I say no??? cant figure it.

Good old Smithy. He can trust me to look after his money.
Dear Sir,
I am Smith Miller a former Commander during the United States war in Iraq. Now that the United States has ended its mission in Iraq, I am presently in Afghanistan for further assignments but will soon be deployed to the Joint Multinational Readiness Center (JMRC) (Upper Palatinate) in your country. During my 2 years stay here in Iraq I was able to make the sum of €18.6million. This money came from Oil deals which I got involved in. I cannot move this money to the United States because I will be in your country for about 5 years. Secondly, I am an uniformed person and I cannot be parading such an amount so I need to present someone as the beneficiary. I am an American and an intelligence officer for that I have a 100% authentic means of transferring the money through diplomatic courier service. I just need your acceptance and all is done.
The only way to be safe with this money is to invest it there in your country considering the fact that I will be there for some time. So I need someone I could deal with. If you accept, I will move the money to you where you will be the beneficiary. For your assistance you will take 40% of the total fund and 60% will be for me, before I left Iraq for Afghanistan, I sealed and deposited the consignment at the Red Cross office in Baghdad with an agreement that I will furnish them with details of my partner and recipient of the consignment.
If we agree to work together, I shall make out time to go to Baghdad to conclude the consignment shipment formalities and introduce you to them as my partner and recipient of the consignment. Where we are now, we can only communicate through our military communication facilities which is not secured. Please send me your personal mobile number so I can call you for further inquiries when I am out of our military network. I shall give you more details when I receive your reply.
Best regards
Smith Miller

Happened to me in the quokka add I placed to sell my Husky as well. Poor bugger was offshore, really wanted the bike but didn't have his cards with him. Would I pay the freight for the bike into an UK account and he would pay me the lot later when he picked the pick up.

This is not a new scam but by definition the word scam to me means a scheme to make a quick profit or to swindle and that is how I feel about this. Just recieved my E tag statement for travelling down and back on the M2 and M7 for a day trip to Penrith. The bastards charged me a total of $20.74 and I turned off at the M4 intersection the cost of the petrol to get there from Cessnock would have been cheaper than that. I dont know how you blokes down there in the big smoke live when you get ripped off like this, I imagine some would be paying this much or more every day just travelling to work.

And they keep on rolling in........................
Dear friend.
Greetings to you and your family, I am the manager of bill and exchange in THE BANK, I have a business of 5.5 Million United State Dollars to be transfer to your account for investment in your country, if you are ready to assist me get back to me, I will give you full details on how the fund will be transfer to you.
Be rest assured that everything will be handled confidentially because, this is a great opportunity we cannot afford to miss, as it will make our family profit a lot.
It has been 6 years ago, that most of the greedy African Politicians used our bank to launder money overseas through the help of their Political advisers.
Most of the funds which they transferred out of the shores of Africa were gold and oil money that was supposed to have been used to develop the continent.
The Political advisers always inflated the amounts before transfer to foreign accounts so I also used the opportunity to divert part of the fund worth five million five hundred united state dollars I told you about and I am aware that there is no official trace of how much was transferred as all the accounts used for such of fund at that particle time were closed after transfer.
I am the account officer to most of the politicians and when I discovered that they were using me to succeed in their greedy act, I also cleaned some of their banking records from the Bank files and no one cared to ask me for the money was too much for them to control, as I am sending this message to you, I was able to divert five point five Millions Dollars ($5.5M)which is in an escrow transit account belonging to no one in the bank, and now my bank is very anxious to know the real beneficiary of the funds is for they have made a lot of profits with the fund.
It has been more than five years ago and most of the politicians are no longer in power again and they don’t use our bank to transfer funds overseas anymore since their tenure had expired.
The $5.5 Million United State Dollars has been lying in the bank as unclaimed fund and I will soon retire from the bank immediately the fund is transfer into your account over there.
Immediately the fund has been successfully transfer into your account I will come to your country for the sharing of the fund, the fund will be shared 50% for me and 40% for you, and the other 10% for the orphanages home and poor with less-privilege people.
Please know that there is no one that is going to question you about the fund if you will comply with me and follow my instruction which will help us a lot to achieve this goal for everything is well secured.
Please indicate your interest in this transaction by replying back and if you are not interested do not waste your time to reply kindly delete my message from your box ok.
Waiting to hear from you soon.
Yours Faithfully,
Mrs. Eunice DaFIa.

WHAT MOOK CAME UP WITH "EUNICE??? fcs :o

Dear Friend,
RE: SECOND NOTIFICATION OF REQUEST.
I am a personal attorney to late Mrs. Claudia and I hereby once again write to notify you through this means as my earlier Email returned undelivered.
I wish to notify you that my late client Mrs. Claudia according to the contractual agreement made you the Heir/Inheritor to the deposit she had with Storage Company here in Madrid, Spain.
Before her untimely death, she deposited a sum of Eight Million US Dollars ($8,000.000.00) in a storage company.
Being a widely traveled woman and relative of yours, I believed that both of you must have been in contact with each other in the past and she simply decided to surprise you with inheritance of the deposit.
Mrs. Claudia until her death was a crude oil businesswoman, contractor, member of the Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic & Electrical Engineers. She was a very dedicated Religious person who has much passion for the less privileged. Her great philanthropy earned her numerous awards during her life time.
She died on the 2nd day of August 2010 at the age of 52 years. The storage company has issued me a notice as a witness and personal attorney to the deceased at the time of deposit to contact you as the Heir/Inheritor for immediate withdrawal. Otherwise, the deposit would be moved over to the government bonded warehouse as unclaimed or abandoned property.
All the legal documents that will back up the claim of deposit are with me hence I require your cooperation to procure and present the affidavit of claim / inheritor to the storage company in order gets the fund retrieved in your favor.
This is not in any way illegal; because as an Attorney, I have made all the enquiries on Spanish Property/Fund Inheritance Release and I found out that according to the Spanish Inheritance bye law, all we need do is to identify you as the person stipulated in the contractual agreement and deposit certificate as the Heir/Inheritor. Thereafter, the storage company will automatically release the fund to you. As an attorney to the deceased, I guarantee the successful execution of this transaction because of my relationship with late Mrs. Claudia.
In order to accelerate the processes, I will like you to quickly response back to enable me provide you with more details and relevant documents that will be needed from the storage company immediately and finally schedule a visit with you to the Storage Company.
Lastly, we shall agree on my own percentage upon your final claim and withdrawal of the deposit.
Yours in service.
Don D. Garcia

I ran into a scam a little while ago.I was walking past a clothing store and there was a sign in the window which read." Armarni suits $100.I thought beauty an armarni for a $100 . When I went inside the sales man looked me up and down and said,"we only have two left as they have sold very fast". He hands me a suit to try on but of course it didn't fit.He then tells me the other suit is smaller and it wont fit either.He then directs me to other suits in the $500 to $750 dollar range. I was talking to a bloke down the pub who knows the shop and he tells me that they have been doing this for years,They look at you and guess your size and give you one of the two suits that they know wont fit and then do the ,"old bait and switch.p

Dear Friend,
RE: SECOND NOTIFICATION OF REQUEST.
I am a personal attorney to late Mrs. Claudia and I hereby once again write to notify you through this means as my earlier Email returned undelivered.
I wish to notify you that my late client Mrs. Claudia according to the contractual agreement made you the Heir/Inheritor to the deposit she had with Storage Company here in Madrid, Spain.
Before her untimely death, she deposited a sum of Eight Million US Dollars ($8,000.000.00) in a storage company.
Being a widely traveled woman and relative of yours, I believed that both of you must have been in contact with each other in the past and she simply decided to surprise you with inheritance of the deposit.
Mrs. Claudia until her death was a crude oil businesswoman, contractor, member of the Helicopter Society and the Institute of Electronic & Electrical Engineers. She was a very dedicated Religious person who has much passion for the less privileged. Her great philanthropy earned her numerous awards during her life time.
She died on the 2nd day of August 2010 at the age of 52 years. The storage company has issued me a notice as a witness and personal attorney to the deceased at the time of deposit to contact you as the Heir/Inheritor for immediate withdrawal. Otherwise, the deposit would be moved over to the government bonded warehouse as unclaimed or abandoned property.
All the legal documents that will back up the claim of deposit are with me hence I require your cooperation to procure and present the affidavit of claim / inheritor to the storage company in order gets the fund retrieved in your favor.
This is not in any way illegal; because as an Attorney, I have made all the enquiries on Spanish Property/Fund Inheritance Release and I found out that according to the Spanish Inheritance bye law, all we need do is to identify you as the person stipulated in the contractual agreement and deposit certificate as the Heir/Inheritor. Thereafter, the storage company will automatically release the fund to you. As an attorney to the deceased, I guarantee the successful execution of this transaction because of my relationship with late Mrs. Claudia.
In order to accelerate the processes, I will like you to quickly response back to enable me provide you with more details and relevant documents that will be needed from the storage company immediately and finally schedule a visit with you to the Storage Company.
Lastly, we shall agree on my own percentage upon your final claim and withdrawal of the deposit.
Yours in service.
Don D. Garcia
How can you doubt the integrity of someone who was a member of the illustrious Helicopter Society?

F#%*ing PAYPAL.
On 20th Nov 2013 I purchased a electronic ignition from the UK for 195 pound and paid for it using paypal, on the 21st the money came out of the bank account that I set up for ebay purchases. On the 22nd paypal tried to withdraw the money from the account for a second time but failed because I only keep enough money in it to cover the things I buy.
They (paypal) told me that because the money for some reason hadn't been claimed straight away and had remained in my account they had used a portion of that (195 pounds) to fund another of my purchases ($4.40 for some screws) and that had left insufficient funds to cover the ignition. ( think that sounds like bullshit ) This is why they decided to withdraw the full amount again and the balance of the first withdrawl could then stay in my paypal for me to use or I could transfer it back into my bank.
The bank has now charged me a dishonour fee of $17.50. When I contacted paypal about this ripoff they couldn't see what the fuss was all about. I still have my money and the bastard I talked to couldn't see why they should be responsable for the $17.50 the bank charged me. She told me that a supervisor would have a look at it and get back to me.
Still waiting

Here's one that actually got me scratching my head... My current best guess is that it's a novice scammer who I caught off guard but wanted the "practice" anyhow?
I advertised three car bits on Gumtree & a car forum (the dreaded Ausrotary). Had $120 on the lot.
Then I get a PM that screamed "scammer", especially as it was from an overseas number:
"Hi Dear, I am intrusted in bootlid & filler flap. Please give me the prices."
I was bored, so I replied:
"$150".
Surprisingly, this came back:
"Deat Your price is 120$/lot on ausrotary. Kindly give me reasonable price.Thanks".
Hmmm... I was still more than a bit sceptical, but he'd made me wonder if he was legit, so I replied:
"Oh, I thought you were an overseas scammer... Sorry!
$90 if there's no mucking around."
The reply:
"Dear I don't understand.My uncle is in austraila he pay payment & collect items."
Ah... So either a scammer or a moron. Probably both.
"No problem. $90 for those two items."
"Kindly negociate the price."
Even allowing for E2L things and stupidity, this guy really must be dumb.
"I've already said $90, twice."
"Ok Thanks my uncle will contact you soon."
And that's where it ended.
I guess the reason I mention it is that they are clearly targeting forums (not just epay/gumtree), and this old mate had the smarts to avoid the generic wording about "the items".
Either that, or there are more really stupid people out there than I realised...

And its gone..... :'(

Thank you and god bless you Stephanie. I'll make sure the money is kept away from the wicked people.......trust me.
Dearest one,
Greetings. I know it will be a great surprise to you reading from me today but consider this a divine intervention as my pastor explained to my understanding. My Name is Mrs. Stephanie Smith , I am 68 Years old and lived in New York City United States of America. I want to entrust a Huge amount of money with you but first will want you to know reasons for my action. We had Joint business with my Late Husband who Died in November 5th 2007 in an Auto Car accident along side our only Son while they where traveling to meet me on my birthday. I will never forget that day as i felt the world has come to an end but my Christian Faith with the Help of my Pastor i was able to live again.
As a good business inclined woman, i managed my husbands investments until my present Medical Condition developed. Last year i experience restlessness and sleepless nights so my Doctor sent me on a general Medical Check up which i was finally diagnosed to cancer. Since i was not able to manage my multiple Investments anymore, my late husbands brother wanted me dead so that he will inherit all my wealth i suffered to build against my will. As a Christian i rather donate my money to the less privilege, orphanage homes and the Church than allow wicked people to take all when i die. I realized the total of US$4,800.000.00 (Four million eight hundred thousand united states dollars) which i want to use for the less privileged. The Doctors says that i will die soon as my health is now critical, i cannot travel now or utilize the money so i will like you to help me use it to change the lives of the less privileged in the society.
I am writing this letter to you because my inner most spirit reveled to me that you can help, use my money for the work of Humanity and to assist the less privileged in the society, motherless baby homes/orphanages, Widows. I know that my story will sadden your heart but my new found life has made me understand that even if we die in this physical flesh, What matters is life after death. let me have your word to use the money wisely and can still help me to distribute money to nearest orphanages homes as i grew up in an orphanage home too. I will let you have more information on how to Claim the funds as soon as i have your word and promise not to betray my trust. I await your response as soon as possible.
May you be blessed, as you reach me at my private email ( [email protected] ).
Best Regards
Mrs. Stephanie Smith

Hello,
We are currently seeking to employ in the USA How would you like to make money by simply driving your car advertising for RedBull.
How it works?

The advert are typically vinyl decals, also known as "auto wraps,"that almost seem to be painted on the vehicle, and which will cover any portion of your car's exterior surface.
What does the company get out of this type of ad strategy? Lots of exposure and awareness. The auto wraps tend to be colorful, eye-catching and attract lots of attention. Plus, it's a form of advertising with a captive audience,meaning people who are stuck in traffic can't avoid seeing the wrapped car alongside them.
This program will last for 12 months and the minimum you can participate is 1 month.
You will be compensated with $500 per week which is essentially a "rental"payment for letting our company use the space no fee is required from you RedBull shall provide experts that would handle the advert placing on your car.
