The custumer was supposed to be someone called "Pedro xxx" My second last name is xxx so he contacted me.

he wanted me to sign but obviously i didn't sign anything and block that person from my email addres
Dear Mr. Friend,

I am Morris Koffa, legal representative of Late who is from your country and who died with all his family members in 2009 in car accident and the Bank issued me a legal notification to present someone to inherit his balance deposit with in their
custody.

Please contact me as soon as possible. On receipt of
your
positive
response, we shall then discuss the procedure of the
transfer of the fund to your new or empty bank account which will be shared
50/50% when it gets to your account.

Kindly get back to me with your;

Full name......................................
Age............................................
Country........................................
Telephone number...............................
Profession.....................................
Your gmail or yandex email.....................

I will give you more clarification on the transaction
as soon as possible
I hear from you.
Reply me back via my private email address:

Yours, Sincerely
Morris Koffa,

I gave him my full name , i told him where i'm from , luckily i didn't wanna give him my phone number or my adress. he replied to my after that saying :
I am indeed willing and rest assured that you are
capable to be presented to the bank for the release of your late
relative's fund.
After trying to contact any direct relative of my deceased
client to no avail, and follow the letter from the holding to my office
to present a beneficiary who will undergo the process of approval
or risky confiscation of the deposited fund, I decided to search
for any one with the same last name as my client. Upon my first
search over the internet,i came in contact with your email among two
other but my instinct in as much as it has not failed me before told
me to contact you Hence i contacted you.

Note carefully that the holding bank will not ask questions based on
the family lineage of the depositor rather will approve the funds on
the basis of documented evidence and banking
information of the deceased that has to come from my office, which is why you
must rely on my guidance and directives to enable us achieve
success.

I am a national of Republic of Togo and no questions
shall be asked you based on the deceased. Therefore, any document or
information the holding bank may request from you to approve the inheritance
fund will have to be provided by me as i am aware you do not
possess any of these items. It is wishful to understand that banks here
does not rely
on the conduction of a DNA or blood test to determine next of kinship,
hence you are legally qualified to receive the funds as long as you are willing to follow my directives.

Your role will be simple. You will be required to stand
as the claimant or next of kin to this fund while I will be
furnishing you with all particulars, information and documents which
the bank might request so that the funds will be approved into your names. Note that most of your communication with the holding bank will be via email.

You shall also provide an existing account offshore
> where
this
fund
if
approved by the bank, will be transferred into. In this
case,
you
will be required to open a new bank account or use your existing bank
account to receive this fund. Note that our inheritance
law does not discredit one's nationality as long as the claimant has all
the relevant information relating to the deceased, which i shall aid you with.
I am not supposed to tell you this because it is
personal problem but for you to know how true and serious this transaction is to me, my wife has kidney problem and needs urgent kidney
transplant that will take place in India and all my hope of taking her to
India for the urgent kidney transplant depends on this transaction
hence i do not want anything to jeopardize it.

I understand we are living in a very wicked world where there are a lot of faceless and masked people out to ruin people but i pray that God opens your mind’s eyes to see the legality and genuinely nature of this matter. Before we commence this transaction, i will appreciate you assure me the followings;

1. That this funds will be safe in your hands until i come over for sharing or/that you will reimburse my share of the fund
accordingly, knowing quite well that i am not qualified to be
presented to this claim, hence the custody/possession of the fund
immediately after the release and transfer process changes to your rights of
bonafide beneficiary.

2. That you will not cheat/betray me at the very end of
it, since my entire hope depends on you and as it took me time to begin this consultation with you based on this transaction and as
such will not want anything to jeopardize the success of this project.

3. That you will treat this transaction with utmost maturity and confidentiality without any involvement of any third party considering the nature of the project and the amount involved. This will guarantee us total safety during and after the transaction. This will also guarantee my safety here in this country as my name is
referred as social activist and would not openly show myself in
this project but will be ever available and ready to advice and guide
you so that we do not make mistakes.

4. That you will participate in this transaction
without bias, with respect and compliance to the bank’s constituted
internal regulations in line with conditions of beneficiary/next of kin fund
transfer, which will guarantee the transfer of this fund to your designated
bank account.

I await your assurance and also anticipate your utmost co-operation
to enable me submit your information to the bank which
will initiate contact with our bank. Due to time difference between us,
i will like to know you're convenient to answer calls so that i can
call without intruding in your privacy and feel free to call me at any time

>The fake bank sent me this 2 days ago with the other documents i just put here
""Sir,

Typical next-of-kin scam. West Africans often don't understand what part of a European name is the surname; I got one addressed to my catcher, using its name, which is a given name, as a surname.

What is the URL of the fake bank?

Thanks for posting the email address.

No one can predict the future, but it is likely you would have sent money to a scammer, and lost whatever you sent.

yourdaddy147 wrote:Do you think my ID and passport info is at risk ?
Chances are good the scammer is not sophisticated enough to do anything with your ID and PP info. However, for your own security and benefit you should go to the agency that issued your PP and report it as compromised ( some may only have the option of lost or stolen) and have them nullify the old PP # and issue you a new #.

You would also be wise to go to https://www.google.com/alerts and set up alerts for your personal information.
Enter the information in quotes like this "Lastname FirstName", "FirstName LastName", "address street City", "phone #" "passport #" and any other of your personal information that you gave to the scammer. Make separate alerts for each bit of information.

.I just found out how to do it .
Thanks for all the info you sent me ..
Those people are just so fucked up in the head .
i JUST CREATED 2 ALLERTS
thanks for everything.

Apparently there is a language barrier here. Sorry about that I only know English. Maybe if some other member here can explain it in Spanish / Portuguese ( I can't tell the difference between them).

lets assume for a minute your name is John Smith, and your PP # is 123456543.

you have the quotes in the right place, but you need to put in your PP # ( given the above example it would be "123456543") in one. a second one with your "lastName FirstName" ("Smith John"), and a third with your "Firstname Lastname" ( "John Smith").

For your own security and safety, do not ever post your name ( notice in your last post it was removed by a moderator here), or any other personal information on the internet. Even the link you posted is not a good idea because robots patrol the internet and will cause you problems in the future. You have no idea if those are good or bad robots seeking information.

Google will maintain your privacy, but letting others see your personal information is a bad idea, unless you trust them very much.

I got another spam email i really hate that stuff now .. this is the 2nd one

The first message i got was
"True friends might be far away but their heartbeat is felt as if they are very close i saw your profile in facebook.com and i decided to write you in my quest to have a good friend, if you will be willing to accept my request kindly reply me so that i will tell you why i have contacted you and also send my pictures."

the second email was this
"Hello dear one,
How was your night over there in your country and the day,i believe you had a nice night and that the atmosphere over there in your country is very nice today? Mine was a little bit warm over here in Dakar Senegal .

My name is Rosangela Lulu, i am (24yrs) but age doesn't matter in a real relationship,so i am comfortable with your age,I am from Liberia in Africa, i am 5.4ft tall, fair in complexion, single,(never married ) and presently i am residing here in Dakar as a result of the civil war that was fought in my country some years ago.

My late father DR FREDRICH LULU was an international business merchant (Ltd) in Monrovia (the capital city of Liberia my country) before the rebels attacked our house one early morning and killed my mother and my father in cold blood.
It was only me that is alive now and I managed to make my way to a near by country SENEGAL where i am leaving now as a refugee under a Reverend father's care and i am using his computer to send these message to you.
I would like to know more about you. Your likes and dislikes, your hobbies and what you are doing presently. I will tell you more about myself in my next mail. Attached here is my picture, Hoping to hear from you soonest
Yours forever
Rosangela."

here there are some pics that this person sent me
http://prntscr.com/5x0fb0
http://prntscr.com/5x0gl4

This is the 3rd one
Hello my dearest,
How are you doing today and your work? I hope well.
Things is very hard fro me here in Dakar Senegal in this refugee camp we are as people who are in prison and I hope by Gods grace i will come here soon. I do not have any relatives now whom i can go to all my relatives ran away in the midst of war, the only person I have now is Rev John Dada, who is the pastor of the (Christ for all Churches) here in a refugee he has been very good for me since I came here, but I'm not living with him rather i am leaving in the women, because the refugee have two hostels one for men and another for women. The Pastors Tel number is (+221786336890) if you call and tell him you want to talk to me, he will send for me in the hostel, and his e-mail address is ([email protected])

As a refugee here i do not have any right or privilege to any thing be it money or whatever because it is against the law of this country.
I want to go back to my studies because i only attended my first year before the tragic incident that lead to my being in this situation has occurred.
Please listen to this, i have my late father of account and death certificate here with me I'll send you latter, because when he was alive he deposited some amount of money in a leading bank in Europe which he used my name as next of kin, the amount involved is $ 6.7 million (six million seven hundred thousand dollars). So I will like you to help me transfer this money to your account and from it you can send some money for me to get my traveling documents and air ticket to come to know him.
I kept this secret to people in refugee here the only person who knows about it is the Reverend because he is like a father to me.
Thus, in light of the above you will like to keep it to yourself and not tell anyone I'm afraid of loosing my life and if the money comes to people knowing about it.

I appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely. After acceptance to assist me I would like to have your contacts complete enough to write the bank so that they will deal with you as my partner standing on my behalf.
Before that, I would like to have your full contact as well as ...

Your home address.
Your full name.
Your actual age.
Phone number.

Remember that I'm giving all this information due to the trust i deposed on you.I like honest and understanding people,
Meanwhile, I'd like you to call me, as I said I have much to say.

Have a nice day and think about me.
yours sincerely
Rosangela.

Thanks for posting the new email. Would you please post both the "sender" and "Reply to" email addresses of this scammer? It will help other possible victims to avoid being trapped in this romance scam.

Does it resemble this one? http://www.scamsurvivors.romancescambai ... 19&t=27913


Now that you were almost scammed, that scammer has passed your name and email address to his buddies, and he also has 20 or 30 of his own personalities that he scams with. They will all be bombarding your email box with scam emails now.

If you can afford to delete that email, and just get another one, that is the best way to get rid of them. Tell all of your friends and family you will soon be changing email addresses. Then make at least 3 new email addresses. One for family and friends, one for business ( and personal purchases), and a third one to give out to everybody else that you have no reason to trust. Trust is earned, not given.

If you can't afford to close the email account you have now ( for whatever reason), then you will just have to live with the scam emails.

it does resemble . i got an email from rosangelalulu too but i stopped talking to her as well i blocked all of their email so they can't send me more emails .
