I really don't know what to call this as usually scammers want to take your money however here I have this guy transferring money to my account.
Well to start with I have been chatting with this guy who says he is a major in the US army since about a month. He now wants to come to see me in Australia. First he did ask for money which I refused so now he says that he will do anything to see me. So he then transferred 7k in my account last week advising me to withdraw the money and deposit it in an account he sent me details of. So I did that but wasn't comfortable with the cash withdrawal and deposit. I then received an email from the us army advising me that his leave has been sanctioned and I need to deposit 10k as some card top up. So again I refuse to send money to him. He comes back to me today saying he has asked his broker to transfer 10k in my account. I really am not able to understand if this is some kind of fraud for money laundering or what. Can someone please advise me on what to do
