Known Scams
IF ANYBODY KNOWS OF ANY OTHER SCAM,
PLEASE SEND DETAILS.
============
It has been reported on the Internet that
several scams are being tried; many originating from various countries in
Africa, but also from other countries around the world.
-------------
One scam in particular asks for your bank
details to transfer excess funds from a large contract in an African
country to your account, which you then forward to the sender of the
Email less a very large commission. The Email indicates that these funds
are being siphoned off from the contract illegally, and plays upon the
greed of the recipient.
What happens is that the sender cleans out your bank account.
Several people have been left with egg on their faces, trying to explain
why they were willing to participate in a fraud.
==============
Another scam, to which more people have
fallen victim is the stolen or worthless banker's draft in which high value goods are
paid for by stolen banker's draft, which leaves the unfortunate vendor
with neither goods or money.
Always check with the issuing bank before parting with your goods, by
asking for details of the draft before the potential purchaser arrives at
your premises.
They usually arrive at a weekend (as do most people ) when the Banks are
closed and you are unable to check.
Often the draft is for more than the price of the goods and you are asked
for the balance which is then pocketed by the "purchaser" and
you are left with a worthless draft or cheque and no goods.

I've been contacted by a man in South Africa, wanting to
buy my horse which
is for sale on your site. I've asked him for a bankers draft, which
he says
he can do as his associates in England owe him some money. They are
to pay
the full amount that they owe him, to me and then I arrange to transfer
the
excess to either him or his shipping agents

My name is Mr Nelsan lumberg a member of Independent
Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP), Switzerland. ICEP is charged with the
responsibility of finding bank accounts in Switzerland belonging to
non-Swiss indigenes, which have remained dormant since World War II.
It may interest you to know that in July of 1997, the Swiss Banker's
Association published a list of dormant accounts originally opened by
non-Swiss citizens. These accounts had been dormant since the end of World
War II (May 9, 1945). Most belonged to Holocaust victims.
The continuing efforts of the Independent Committee of Eminent Persons (ICEP)
have since resulted in the discovery of additional dormant accounts -
54,000 in December,99
The published lists contain all types of dormant accounts, including
interest-bearing savings accounts, securities accounts, safe deposit
boxes, custody accounts, and non-interest-bearing transaction accounts.
Numbered accounts are also included. Interest is paid on accounts that
were interest bearing when established.
The Claims Resolution Tribunal (CRT) handles processing of all claims on
accounts due non-Swiss citizens. A dormant account of ORDNER ADELE with a
credit balance of 45,000,000 US dollar plus accumulated interest was
discovered by me. The beneficiary was murdered during the holocaust era,
leaving no WILL and no possible records for trace of heirs.
The Claims Resolution Tribunal has been mandated to report all unclaimed
funds for permanent closure of accounts and transfer of existing credit
balance into the treasury of Switzerland government as provided by the law
for management of assets of deceased beneficiaries who died interstate
(living no wills).
Being a top executive at ICEP, I have all secret details and necessary
contacts for claim of the funds without any hitch. The funds will be
banked in the Cayman Island, being a tax free, safe haven for funds and we
can share the funds and use in investment of our choice.
Due to the sensitive nature of my job, I need a foreigner to HELP claim
the funds. All that is required is for you to provide me with your details
for processing of the necessary legal and administrative claim documents
for transfer of the funds to you.
Kindly provide me with your full name, address, and telephone/fax. I will
pay all required fees to ensure that the fund is transferred to a secure,
numbered account in your name in the Cayman Island, of which you will be
capable of accessing the funds gradually and transferring to your country
and other banks of choice in the world. My share will be 60
percent and your share is 40 per cent of the total amount. THERE IS NO
RISK INVOLVED.
You can find additional information about unclaimed funds through the
internet at the following websites:
www.swissbankclaims.com
http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/europe/9902/09/germany.holocaust/
www.avotaynu.com www.icheic.org
www.livingheirs.com www.wiesenthal.com
The Holocaust Claims Processing Office has put funds in Escrow awaiting
submission of valid claims for necessary disbursement.
I find myself priviledged to have this information and this may be a great
opportunity for a life time of success without risks.
Due to security reasons, reply to my via email only. You may reply to me
securely on the following email,nelsan@email.cz or
ngrunjer@email.cz Thank you for your prompt response.
