A Nasty Scam Currently Going On In Africa

Beware of this new scam going on in Senegal, Africa. I was recently contacted by these online African thieves, thinking I was a run-over, but immediately I knew that it was a scam and so I played along so as to obtain as much evidence as possible to know what they do and how they scam people with their nasty little scam!

So I played along as if I was really interested, yet remembering where to draw the line! Well, in brief, their scam is aimed at getting your bank details so as to deplete your account! I still don’t know how they do it, though, but I hear that it’s working very well for them! They can even hack larger banks like the Royal Bank of Scotland in London, and they are even using the Royal Bank of London to attract clients!

Nonetheless, let me exhibit their work on my blog for you to read it for yourself! And if you need more information regarding the scammers’ details, please don’t hesitate to contact me because I've like 15 emails from them, containing all their details, possibly fake details anyway!

Hello dearest one.

How are you today?

I believe you are doing well, please don’t be surprise about this message.

I am more than happy reading your reply today, My dear like I told you in my first mail,

My name is Rachel Gilbert from Ivory coast in west Africa Presently I am residing in the refugee camp here in Dakar Senegal as a result of the civil war going on in my country.

I am 24 years old girl 5'8" tall.

My father (DR GILBERT CHARLES) was the personal adviser to the former head of state

(Late DR HENRI KONAN) before the rebels attacked our house one early morning and killed him alongside with my mother It is only me that is alive now and I managed to make my way to a near by country Senegal where I am living now.

Please I will like to know more about you. Your likes and dislikes and what you are doing presently. When I read your mail today is give me full joy and happiness, I hope I have gotten the honest person which I have been searching. Thank you once again I will like to see you face to face soonest. My dear I will like to be part of your life.

Mine here is a little bit hot over here in Dakar Senegal. In this refugee we are only allowed to go out only some times in a week. It’s just like one staying in the prison and I hope with your help and by Gods grace I will come out here soon.

I don't have any relatives now whom I can go to all my relatives ran away in the middle of the war the only person I have now is Rev Asan Duku who is the pastor of the (Christ for all Churches) here in the refugee he has been very nice to me

since i came here but I am not living with him rather I am leaving in the women's hostel because the refugee have two hostels one for men the other for women. The PASTOR Tel number is ( +221786334447 ) I will being waiting for your call as soon as you received this message ;if you call tell PASTOR ASAN DUKU that you want to speak with me he will send for me in the hostel.

As a refugee here I don't 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 now took place.

Please listen to this, I have my late father's statement of account and death certificate here with me which I will send to 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 the next of kin, the amount in question is £8.7M (Eight Million Seven Hundred Thousand pounds).

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 over to meet with you.

I kept this secret to people in the refugee here the only person that knows about it is the Reverend because he is like a father to me. So in the light of above I will like you to keep it to yourself and don't tell it to anyone for I am afraid of loosing my life and the money if people get to know about it.

Remember I am giving you all this information due to the trust and honest I deposed on you, I like honest and understanding people, truthful and a human of vision, truth and hard working. My favorite language is English but our language is French but I speak English very fluently.

Meanwhile I will like you to call me to prove you’re honest and also to hear my voice and I also will hear yours. Have a nice day and read my message careful, please treat this very urgent to safe my life, if you are willing to help respond quickly so that I will give you all the details about the bank where the money was deposited

Waiting to hear from you soonest.

Rachel.
