As long as there are simple minded, uneducated, or greedy individuals out there, these scams will continue to exist.
Never, never, never, never, never give money to receive money. if you have legitimately won, you won’t have to pay anything. if you have to pay one cent, one pence, or whatever you have of value, or givie out your bank information, personal i.d. numbers to strangers over the internet, then you have you have not won anything! how much more clearer do we need to make this?
If you use the fradulent credit card and purchase thousands of dollars in merchandise, the law will come back to you to collect the money to pay for the merchandise you have shipped to these scammers. the police can’t collect from the scammers, but they can collect from the people who fell for the scam. the scammers will pay you for the first shipment, but then the money will be taken away from the bank when they discover it is fraud. by then you would have purchased more goods and you will be responsible to pay for those items, too.

when the email is to undisclosed reciepients it’s a definite scame. they are hoping that one or two will bite.

This one is better than all the above — they now chat with you for weeks at a time and then – want to set up an account for you to help you cause he now love you and will be in town to see you soon.. so you will need money to get a nice room and shopping.
I receive 100 emails every month from Nigeria asking me to pay 4 ATM cards, Inheritance fees, transfer of hidden assets, transfer of bank assets for people killed in accidents, job offers, lottery winnings and FBI notices asking for money!. In fact, a man named Bishop K Williams is waiting right now for me to send a western union payment of $250.00 to a Mr. Peter John in Lagos, Nigeria and I will receive a ATM card by special courier next week. What is really going on in Nigeria? Can’t their government control electronic theft better than this? I am so sad right now because I need money to pay my bills and these criminals prey on people like me except I am not so desperate that I believe what they say. Is there a reward for reporting these emails to some law enforcement agency? I saved a lot of them. God looks out for me daily.
Thanks

Is that true ? when i can get my money ? can you please tell me all about
P.S. A dead give-away that it’s a scam is someone like the FBI, the United Nations, any bank, attorney, etc. that uses a FREE email account. Most of them have their own paid-for private domains. If they are using a free email account, it is most likely because they are using rented computers in some dark cyber-cafe in Africa.
Language is another give-away. If they say they are “Robert Mueller” (director of FBI) and can’t speak or spell English properly, you can bet that it isn’t him. hahahaha Also, if they say you won a foreign lottery, RUN. It is illegal to enter or win a lottery outside of the USA (if you live in the USA). It is also illegal to win a contest that you did NOT enter.
When it says it’s Microsoft and they use yahoo mail, it’s a hint that something is amiss. Also, ALL lotteries, etc. use only certified mail to notify people when they win, and they will NEVER ask you to pay anything to collect winnings. This is ILLEGAL. You will pay taxes on the money, but never pay to collect it. If someone sends you a check or money order and asks you to cash it, and wire them 90% while you keep 10%, it’s a guarantee that it’s COUNTERFEIT. DON’T DO IT.
If you have any questions about whether or not something is a scam, you can always Google it. There are answers all over the internet. This is how I discovered that people are using the ruse that they need a payment clerk to cash their checks/money orders. (If I can cash it, why can’t THEY?) They’ll give all sorts of reasons why they can’t cash it, or why it takes so long to get the money for them.
If you decide to try it, make sure you hold the money for at LEAST 6-8 weeks before sending them the money in case the bank comes back to you and tells you it’s counterfeit. But be careful. If it IS counterfeit, YOU will be the one that goes to federal prison, not them! After all, they use fake names, and “disposable” email accounts…hence the use of yahoo, hotmail, gmail, and other free email accounts.
Just remember…NO ONE WANTS TO GIVE YOU MONEY FOR NOTHING. Ask them why they don’t use family or friends to get the money. They will ALWAYS say they need a “foreign partner” for some reason. They don’t want their friends/family to get in trouble, and they know they have no money anyway to give them for their “fees”. USE YOUR BRAINS, PEOPLE. NO ONE IS GOING TO GIVE YOU MILLIONS FOR $200.00. Would YOU give someone that kind of money for a $200.00 fee???
Anytime anyone wants to “give” you millions for nothing, BEWARE. They are ALL scams. There are many of these games out there, most originating in Nigeria (hence “Nigeria 419 Scam”), but come from other countries as well. All of them will eventually require you to pay some “fees” for documents, couriers, etc. and require that it be paid via Western Union or Money Gram using a test question and answer rather than them having to show an ID. Once you pay that first fee, they will want more and more until you say “no more”, then they disappear. STAY AWAY FROM THESE. They want to “give” you ATM cards, the “FBI” or the “U.N.” wants to repay you money for being scammed (they don’t work this way), some want you to stand in as next-of-kin to someone deceased and whose money is “dormant and never claimed” and there is no true next-of-kin to contact. (This is stealing.) Some are “refugees” that are (amazingly) MILLIONAIRES. Anyone that falls for this garbage deserves what they get. GREED will get you NOTHING. Delete these mails immediate. If you get tied up with them, they will threaten your life, steal from your bank account (NEVER give out your banking info1), and call you daily cursing you out. If you tell them to bug off, they will try sending you “Hallmark Greetings”, etc. Beware…these contain VIRUSES! If you run your mouse pointer over the link, it will tell you at the bottom of your browser window what this link REALLY is. NEVER go to any link provided, and NEVER open any attachments from someone you don’t know!
Hi, I’m like Sarah, I have been getting e-mail form this people for the last past two months. I just recently got a e-mail the last past two days from a Mr. Anthony Ukpo from the Sky Bank plc of Nigerla telling me he has found someone to pay for all my expensive until i get my card and just western union them the 10% of the money back to them. I also been getting E-Mail from a Mr.Mueller who clam to be from the FBI agent for wire tapping.
I’ve have gotten e-mail from a Mr. Joseph Jones from a swift Card consultant., a man name Anderson Jones of a Allied Capital BankL.T.D, A Mr. Franco Coppola of Bank of America, a Charles C Soludo of the Central Bank of Nigeria Corporate bank &Financial Markets and last but not list a Mr. Danlamom who is suppose to be the Esquar of Nigerla.
I admit they had me going at first and i fell for it. They got me for $200 but they won’t get me again. So I really would like for you all to track this people down fast before they scam some more people out there money. I was hurt because see
I’m a mother of three and on disability and that really hurt me a lot .
Sincerely Valerie and GOD BLESS YOU!!
I have been receiving some emails on having an ATM card waiting for me at the ATM CARD CENTER and all I have to do is give some info. and it’s all mine. I’m suppose to be able to draw out 4,000 to 5,000 dollars a day if I feel like it . Please get back to me on this issue the CODE: is [snip]. Please tell me this is a scam too. I really wish it was not at this time of my life but I feel I want to let others know too that this is still happening. I also get some from the FBI too telling me I will receive 800,000.00 Dollars, But have to pay 200.00 Dollars too. Please pay attention to all of this B.S. and help some one else not get the scams of a life time too. I have not been scammed because I know this is a sick joke so far but I need to let others know this is out there yet. Have a nice day and thanks for your time in this matter Sarah
