419 Scam: Your Package is at the Airport
- 10-23-2011
- Categorized in: 419 Scams
This is a common scam, regardless of the airport, country, location, whatever. The scammer(s) will inform you that a package containing alot of money (the bait) is waiting for your collection at the airport. You are required to reply or contact another person (custom, courier, etc) to retrieve this package (the anticipation). Then you will be asked to pay for a fee to "release" the package, normally just a few hundred bucks to couple of thousands depending on the scammer. If you bite the bait and motivated to proceed due to high expectation that this is for "real", you will end up paying the "fees" for an empty package. There is no free lunch.
