Internet Crime: December 2010Archive
Few days ago, I received a message from a man in Ghana. He said he was a senior bank manager in Ghana and a person whose first name is same as mine was dead in the disaster of Indonesia. So, he was talking like he was looking for someone who could inherit that man's money (175,000,000 USD) in the bank of Ghana.
He also sent me his detailed information and fake ID of Amal Bank in Ghana. I doubted it and searched for some information related with his name, email address, text in the mail. Then I found several sites which talked about this scamming.

This scamming is a variant of so called "Nigeria 419 Scam". They use real name of bank, employee and lawyer. If you are slightly careless, you will trust these mother fuckers talk so easily.

Watch out if anyone talk to you through Skype like this.
I expose the mail they use for this scamming.
