Scam ATM Card Payment
Money Transfers
Example - James Odili
I have been waiting for you since to come down here and pick your Bank Draft but did not heard from you since that time then I went and deposited the Draft with Apex Bank Plc here in Benin Republic, because I travelled to Japan to see my boss and will not come back till next month end. I have arranged with them to make your payment to you with their new ATM MASTER CARD
REV DR.MATHEW OKOH
Have you received an email from "James Odili", claiming "I have been waiting for you since to come down here and pick your Bank Draft but did not heard from you since that time then I went and deposited the Draft with Apex Bank Plc here in Benin Republic, because I travelled to Japan to see my boss and will not come back till next month end. I have arranged with them to make your payment to you with their new ATM MASTER CARD" and Nigeria owes you money from a "contract/inheritance payment
file", whatever that may be, and he will send you the money on an ATM card,
if you contact "REV DR.MATHEW OKOH"?
"James Odili" is a highly educated and highly ranking lawyer or government official who apparently can't spell and
feels the odd need to randomly capitalize some WORDS (like that). If this
doesn't immediately strike you as a scam, then allow us to point out the
inconsistencies and how the scam works.
It's a mystery who the dead guy is or why he named you as a beneficiary or what the "contract" was, but you better reply
pretty quickly or risk losing millions from the "contract/inheritance payment
file". Also notice that the "lawyer" is writing to you from a free email account (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc.); in fact,
they typically use more than one different free email accounts.
Of
course, even if what is presented in the email were true; you would be committing several felonies,
including fraud.
