Extractions: fraudwatchinternational.com MINOR SPONSORS FRAUD ALERT "Lottery Scams Flourishing" Date Issued: July 06 2003 FraudWatch International continues to receive many complaints and enquiries about Sweepstake and Lottery scams. FraudWatch International have compiled a list of almost 200 allegedly Fraudulent Operations from a variety of official sources. The latest examples involve a winning notification e-mail, claiming the recipient's e-mail address was selected randomly from the Internet, and the recipient has won a large amount of U.S. funds, ranging from $1 Million to $5 Million. The latest trend seems to involve the advanced fee formula. Victims have been asked to pay amounts ranging from $25 to thousands of Euros. It is claimed this money is for legal fees, taxes or any other reason they can make sound legitimate. As well as requesting personal information, including bank account details, some scams require the winner to meet personally to complete the transfer. This places the victim in even more risk, not just of financial loss, but physical injury if they do not comply with the scammers requests.
The "Nigerian Letter" Advance Fee Fraud - ABC's Of Small Business The Nigerian Letter du jour, interspersed with comments. For the small business owner who might think that just possibly an offer out of the blue for a cut of millions of dollars could be truthful. http://www.abcsmallbiz.com/bizbasics/misc/nigerian_letter.html
Extractions: Advance Fee Fraud ABC's has been getting listed in more directories recently. While that's good, because it lets you find us, it also gets us on some great spam/scam mailing lists. For the next few issues, we're going to examine some existing and potential email scams so that you can see what they are and why they sometimes work. We're going to start with a classic, the "Nigerian Letter." This has been around since at least 1987, but the advent of email and the cheapness of spam has made it spread further and faster, so it's actually becoming a better deal for the scamsters. In 1997, the U.S. government estimated that U.S. citizens alone were losing over $300 million a year to this scam. Some investors you would consider to be "real achievers" have been bitten hard by this one. One guy spent $5.2 million dollars and sued the Central Bank of Nigeria for the funds in U.S. Court before he realized he'd been scammed. How do they do it? The basic concept is that the scamster offers big bucks, in the millions, that he can obtain only with the victim's help. The reasons range from overbilled funds that can be recovered for oil or commodities, through mislaid bank deposits to the fruits of outright bribery and corruption.
