Nice thread! I have a 14 yr old who has fallen for this (never again!!). However, she truly fell for it and ended up giving information about herself that made me S**T when I saw it.
(Thank you Mozilla for storing passwords). I didn't want to pry, but noticed that when she was online, that she kept looking over her shoulder. So, needless to say, I had to.
I messed with them as well.............strung them along..........changed the personal info....and made it sound that I was to the point where I was going to deposit some cash.
Boy, it is almost like a Dog waiting for a bone a drooling. I mean, I get it if the victim does not know what this kind of thing is, but.........chances are, most victims know SOME
ONE who will be able to see this kind of fraud. ESSENTIALCLIX, I love your idea, and might just try it.........................but.................isn't this BHW??
Do you guys think that this is inapropriate as I do?
And Ayobomi, I think that Nigerians are being used as a Scapegoat if you will.
Does anyone know whether these are truly coming from Nigeria???
I didn't think so.
Cheers

I wonder if you could somehow trick some of these dipshits into sending you $100...

Tell them you just changed bank accounts because your old bank wouldn't let you keep more than $100,000 in your account there, and that you can't withdraw any money for a month while the transfer is happening. Tell them if they wire you the $100 needed to speed up the transfer process (via Western Union) then you'll be able to give them the bank account number within 1 day of receiving the money. Beg for their help and act dumb and helpless. Pretend like you really believe in their offer lol. Setup a PO Box and maybe even a DBA license and get the money wired to that contact info.

Scam the scammers

You are welcome Ayobami. Your country needs more proudly Nigerians and probably one or two great leaders of whom all Nigeria to be extremely proud.

Only good example of proud citizens will help improving things in a country.

Amen to that, sir!

It's really just such a shame, though.

Anyways, WHY would they ask for your details and everything if they were supposedly investigating already? You'd think they'd be a lot smarter than that, hey?

ATTENTION FUND BENEFICIARY,

This is an official advice from the fbi foreign Remittance / telegraphic dept.,it has come to our notice that the C.B.N Bank Nigeria district has released 10,500,000.00 US dollars into bank of America in your name as the beneficiary, by inheritance means.

The C.B.N Bank Nigeria knowing fully well that they do not have Enough facilities to effect this payment from the united kingdom to your account, used what we know as a secret diplomatic transit payment (s.t.d.p) to pay this fund through wire transfer, they used this means to complete the payment.

They are still, waiting for confirmation from you on the already Transferred funds which were made in direct transfer so that they can do final crediting to your account. Secret diplomatic payments are not made unless the funds are related to terrorist activities why must your payment be made in secret transfer, if your transaction is legitimate, if you are not a terrorist, then why did you not receive the money directly into your account; this is a pure coded, means of payment?

Records which we have had with this method of payment in the past Has always been related to terrorist acts, we do not want you to get into trouble as soon as these funds reflect in your account in the U.S.A, so it is our duty as a world wide commission to correct this little problem before this fund will be credited into your personal account.

Due to the increased difficulty and unnecessary security by the American authorities when funds come from outside of Europe, and the Middle East, the f.b.i bank commission for Europe has stopped the transfer on its way to deliver payment of $10,500,000.00 to debit your reserve account and pay you through a secured diplomatic transit account (s.d.t.a). We govern and oversee funds transfer for the World Bank and the rest of the world.

We advice you contact us immediately, as the funds have been Stopped and are being held in our custody, until you can be able to provide us with a diplomatic immunity seal of transfer (dist) within 3 days from the world local bank that authorize the transfer from where the funds was transferred from to certify that the funds that you are about to receive from Nigeria are antiterrorist/drug free or we shall have cause to cross and impound the Payment, we shall release the funds immediately we receive this legal documents.

anybody that comes to them, unless we ask them to do so, because we have to carry out our investigations first before releasing the fund to you.

So to this regards you are to re-assure and proof to us that what you are about to receive is a clean money by sending to us FBI Identification Record and also Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer(DIST) to satisfy to us that the money your about to receive is legitimate and real money.

These Documents are to be issued to you from the World Local Bank that Authorized the transfer, so get back to us immediately if you don't have the document so that we will inform you the particular place to obtain the document in United Kingdom (U.K), because we have come to realize that the fund was Authorized by (H.S.B.C) Bank in London.

An FBI Identification Record and Diplomatic Immunity Seal Of Transfer (DIST) often referred to as a Criminal History Record or Rap Sheet, is a listing of certain information taken from fingerprint submissions retained by the FBI in connection with arrests and, in some instances, federal employment,naturalization, or military service.
