PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE USING THIS BLOG.

ALL the lotteries, draws, compensation schemes, inheritances, payment agent or mystery shopper jobs and business proposals offering huge sums of money are SCAMS. You CAN'T WIN a lottery or prize draw you HAVEN'T ENTERED. Please don't post comments asking if the SCAMS you have received are real. PLEASE DON'T LEAVE YOUR PERSONAL DETAILS IN A COMMENT ASKING SCAMMERS TO CONTACT YOU (yes, people really do this regularly!)

IMMEDIATE CONTRACT

Do you think the finance director of a major bank would use a mobile phone number and a yahoo email address  No, neither do I.

This one is kind of spooky – apparently my late father (he died nearly 20 years ago) was one of the people who claimed to be my “true representative”.  Maybe he could claim the $9.5m and have a party in spirit land??

Just ignore this scammer who is only [Continue reading IMMEDIATE CONTRACT]

ALL IS NOT OVER YET

I think this scammer should win some kind of prize for their hilarious subject line.  He also deserves some kind of medal for his total inability to read.  Do take a look at the UN document in the link he’s kindly provided.  It clearly states two things:

1)It is not possible anymore, no matter what the circumstances, to accept new claims

2)The United Nations Compensation Commission (UNCC) was created in 1991 as a subsidiary organ [Continue reading ALL IS NOT OVER YET]

FAILED CONTRACT/ INHERITANCE FUND SUM TRANSFER.

Yet another scammer who wants to “let you know the truth”.  ”Truth” being a word that his scammer clearly wouldn’t know the meaning of.  And yet another scammer who thinks that telling me someone in Nigeria wants to send me money will make me believe them.  It won’t!!!

Ignore this idiot.  You know perfectly well that you aren’t expecting “funds” from Nigeria.

Attention:

My name is Mr Ibrahim Abdullahi Lamorde [Continue reading FAILED CONTRACT/ INHERITANCE FUND SUM TRANSFER.]

FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION

This scammer has written a long, convoluted story which I can’t be bothered to read.  The gist of it is – “send me $200″.  No.  I won’t.  Go away.

This scammer has a gift for story telling.  A skill which I’m sure could be better used elsewhere to earn an honest living, rather than trying to steal money from you.

Ignore this scammer.  You know as well as I do that you aren’t expecting [Continue reading FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION]

Mrs Carson

This idiot came to a blog about SCAMS and left their scam loan offer as a comment.  He or she can’t even decide what her fake loan company is called.  Is it “Mrs Carson financial loan service” or is it “Melissa financial loan service”?

Good day, Getting a legitimate loan have always been a huge problem To clients who have financial needs. The issue of credit and collateral are something that clients [Continue reading Mrs Carson]

LET’S MAKE A DEAL.

I’m sure (heavy sarcasm) that a respected “solicitor at law” whose client entrusted him with $12.5m would email random people using a hotmail email address.  Adding that $12m to the rest of the money I’ve been told I am owed this week would mean I could retire in comfort.  Sadly I can’t and will continue writing this blog from my sofa in the cold and rain of the English countryside rather than from a [Continue reading LET’S MAKE A DEAL.]

Notification ! Tax Refund

Another scammer who, for some strange reason, seems to think that adding exclamation marks to the subject line of their email will make it believable.  It doesn’t, of course.  In fact it’s the first hint that an email is probably a scam.

The UK Inland Revenue don’t email you if you are due for a tax return – they write to you.  Nor do they address you as “Dear Applicant”.  If they believe they [Continue reading Notification ! Tax Refund]

Hello

“Wong Hui” is so desperate to give me $25m that he has written to me at 3 different email addresses.  Clearly if this scammer really was the “bank director” of a bank “Hong kong” then he would be out of a job by now and probably in prison as he has been sending this email to thousands of people telling them how he intends to steal money from his bank and send it to [Continue reading Hello]

Permalink

I’ve long since said that loan scammers are the thickest and most stupid of scammers.  This person (or team of people) is no exception. He has left his scam loan offer 3 times as a comment on a post about (oooooh, let me stop and think about this.  Oh yes, I know…) a scam loan offer on a blog about (now this one will take time to think about.  Oh yes, I’ve got it…….) [Continue reading ]

Your AT&T wireless bill is ready to view

It seems unlikely that many people would be expecting their AT&T bill to be so high, so this scammer is hoping you will panic and click on the link in this email.  The website it takes you to is infected with malware, according to my antivirus software.

If your computer allows you to access the page, then make sure you scan your computer with malwarebytes to remove any threats that have made their way [Continue reading Your AT&T wireless bill is ready to view]
