Hello readers
I am Adam from Tunisia.
I am writing this to warn everybody of this horrible scam about gold bars from someone called General Abdullah Sable (or General Abdullah Sallam or Dr Youssef Sable etc .... they use many fake names). He says he is from Ghana. Anyway, this is how the story goes.
Initially I got an email from [email protected]
Dear Brother
I was born to a Muslim family in Accra Ghana April 22, 1940… I retired from the Military and became a civilian 1996… In the year 1998 I became a commissioner for geology and mining working in the Industries and Mines Department… I am presently working as an ambassador for United Nations.
There are many scammers and thief on the internet because I was scammed several times when I retired from the Military even thought I am an Ambassador to United Nations and a retired Army General. I have learnt not to trust any person on the internet.
I trust you as a friend and a brother… but I want you and me to make arrangement on how we can see each other on Cam through the computer… after we have see ourselves on Cam then we can discus further on other confidential issues for our mutual benefit.
Yours Sincerely,
Abdullah=================
This was then followed by a series of emails where this General Abdullah made a proposal of me 'keeping' some gold for him here in Tunisia and then we sell it together and I will get 10% of these millions. I said I was interested as long as there is no risk on me and I will not pay anything. This was the message I received:
Dear Brother
[color=#0040FF][i]I told the authorities am going to pay all the charges including the insurance here in England, I was notified you should send 4,500 usd (ONLY) to England through Western Union to enable your name appear here in the office before I will be permitted to pay the complete charges here in London England.
Attached is a photo of raw Gold… I want you to make it known to me you are capable to send 4,500 usd (ONLY) through Western Union to London England to enable me contact the authorities to send me the details where you are going to send the money.[/i][/color]=======================================
