I was scammed as of 2013 till December.
It hs been one year passed and I never get my solution because I wire transfered to China. (Taiwan, Hong Kong and Shanghai).
After the swindler took US$279,000 they back contacted me January of 2014.
Offering me that they will pay me back all amount money if only I take back my Cancellation Request to Shanghai bank. I was almost taking this till they asked me to send official document scan.
Scammers were use to let me do it after I made wire transfer from Japan.
They wants to know sure I did and how long they should wait it!
I told I can't do because nothing sure for me.
They got so mad and nothing from them everafter.

But I recieved several fraud mail through internet LinkedIn.
I reported it to security section of LinkedIn and they changed policy as of October 2014.

I also recieved recovery fraud mail as below,

Welcom to Scamwarners and I am sorry to hear that you were scammed.

The domain efccnigeria.org is the real EFCC domain, but I doubt that it is them writing to you as it appears to be a generic mail sent to many people. Please can you post the headers to the email (remove your personal details) as it is likely it has a different reply to address.

Please do not tell scammers that they are listed here - it will take them seconds to change their fake details and their new details will not be listed for any future victims to find.
