Question/Comment: I have rec'd numerous e-mails by one or more persons (I have copies of all e-mails) that have claimed to have an overseas account opened in my name in which have been deposited illegal funds.  Who do I contact for assistance?  Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

This is just another 419 scam. They will ask you for transfer fees and stuff, or make use of any personal sensitive information that you provide. Give them a pass.

Do you know who really this guy is, Andrew Reece? His email address is caramel.andrew@yahoo.com, widowed 65 yrs old from Beverly Hills, California doing construction in Kuala Lumpor, Malaysia (Shopping Mall). He is a scammer and he should be stopped and put to jail. He did a good job in scamming me.

I met Andrew Reece (caramel.andrew@yahoo.com) at a dating site somewhere in Nov. 2011, he seemed real and true. He said that he lives in Beverly Hills, Ca.and  he's in Kuala Lumpor, Malaysia for an on going Big Shopping Mall Construction Contract(1.5M) for 3 weeks or a month and be back in USA after that. He his 65 yrs. old, widow, (wife died of cancer) and looking for a longlife relationship. We've been emailing, talking on the phone and on Instant Messaging for 2-3 months. We became friends, after a week or two he send me flowers and fruits and then writing sweet and romantic poems (seems real/true). After 2weeks, he said that he was robbed and all his documents and huge amount of money were gone and now he can't finished the Shopping Mall Contract and want to borrow/loan any amount and pay me back when he gets his 1.5M. I told him that I don't  loan money to a person that I don't know and haven't seen. He had a lot of schemes in his mind:  he said that he fell on the roof of the building while doing the inspection went to the hospital and broke his ankle and needs an immediate surgery; pay taxes for the 1.5M to the Malaysian Gov't; his hotel bills and airfare to come back to USA. This is a scam that he is working on. If he is paid 1.5M, why he needs all this help? it doesn't make sense. He said that his payment is in a Payment Certificate and he can only withdraw it when he gets to USA. It gets fishy to me, so i didn't buy it. He said, he's coming home to USA and wanted me to meet him in the airport, he didn't show up. i just noticed that the airline ticket that he emailed didn't have no confirmation #. So, single and widowed ladies up there don't get manipulated by this scam bug. He also have a crime partner name Judge Fred Thompson (fake judge), judgefred60@gmail.com, helping do his legal matters. These two scam bugs are evils and devils pretending to be good christians.

You are right my friend, he pretended to be a nice guy, manipulated me with his romantic words he said that he was in Malaysia doing a Big Shopping Mall Construction for 3 weeks or a month and be back to USA after. He claims that he lives in Beverly Hills California and a Construction Engineer. He really knows how to manipulate single and widowed human being. Pretending to be a Christian and in fact he is a devil.He's a scammer and just want money so beware up there, he also have a scam partner named Judge Fred Thompson (fake judge), both of these guys are SCAM ARTISTS.

I have a friend that is working with me. 2 Years ago she met a guy on facebook which is working in the Congo. He told her that he inherited a few million from a uncle and that he is in contact with the lawayer and bank in Malaysia. From then she had to pay money to the "Malaysian Bank" a few times now. They said they gonna bring the money to south africa as they cannot pay the money into an account as it will be to expensive. Now the bank sent a "diplomat" to finalise the payment and also the lawyer from Malaysia. When they were suppose to get the money someone told the the "diplomat" stole the money, but after that the lawayer said the "diplomat was arrested for money laundring. There is more detail to this story than this, but this is the most important details for now. I believe that is is a scam but my friend believes in this. What can I do to help her. She already paid these people about R 100 000! Please help

Hi,

I met this girl on cupid.com, I got to know her a bit, then she springs a story of getting mugged in Malaysia and losing all her money, then asking me to send money in US funs to her to help pay for her rent. I do't believe her really because I've heard these stories before, no matter what she tells me I will NOT proceed with this, I believe it is a scam. I had not at first, but as things progressed it seemed so.

Met this guy named  Mark Palombini on okcupid.com. He said he thought I was beautiful, sent me roses (yes, I was dumb enough to give him my address) and then a few days later he claimed he received a call from his sons' school in Malaysia saying they were in a car wreck. He called the next night and said his son had died and the other was on life support and he needed $2500 from me so his other son did not die. I told him I did not have the money and he asked how much I did have. He also said how he had no one else; his ex-wife had cheated on him with his best friend. He also stated how he wanted to die; he just wanted to kill himself. I said I was sorry-I did not have the money (I had suspicions) and he said how he has been looking at his son's body in the morgue. The kicker is I had found a facebook for his so-called "son" and his son had updated his status that night. What a loser. Oh, he says he lives in Dallas, but it will say on FB he lives in FL. Be careful, ladies!! His email is markpalombini@aol.com. He has a very thick accent.

I am being scammed as i'm typing this by a Mark Lawton. I met him on okcupid. We have been talking for some time on yahoo messenger.  He was Flying out of Malaysia tonight and had a cargo of foreign cars at the seaport.  Now he's calling and crying he forgot to renew his BTA to the seaport.  So he has just asked me to send $1400.00 to a Mike Fisher  by western Union, so that he can fly out tonight and be with me.  He had sent me a copy of his flight schedule yesterday showing he was flying here and would arrive Monday.  I knew the moment he was crying about money it was a scam.  Be Careful on these dating sites, Please!! If I knew what to do to help catch this guy I wouldn't be reading these posts.

I have experienced the same thing from a Pete Walters from Scotland. Met him through match.com, have been e-mailing and talking by phone over the last 2-3 months. Told me he was going to head over to meet me after finishing a contract in Malaysia and then all a sudden he needed me to send him $1700 to pay tax for vaccines and veterinary equipment he had at the seaport and needed to finish his contract. He made out he was financial so if that was the case, why did he need my help. I to would love to help catch these guys

If you send themm money, you are getting scammed. Never send anyone money or any bank account info or personal information. Simply ask that they deducted any funds from the account they claim to be for you. Ask that the check be sent to you in the amount based on U.S. funds and made out to you in the form of a bonified cashiers/bank check. Then ask them to tell you what bank the check is being drawn from. Then check W/your bank. They might just send you something amongst the confusion. Trust me.

I have recently received an email stating from a Lawyer called Mansoor Bin Saat from Kuala Lumpur that I had an inheritance of several million pounds and I was the only beneficiary!!!  When I know that there are several people with my surname.  I also came across the same information but with a different surname so I know it is a scam.  I am not so stupid as to part with money or bank details, after all apart from being Scottish, it is too good to be true!

I am a filipina and I have a friend (i will not mention the name for security reasons) who has just been a victim of online dating scam. She met the guy in myspace august of this year then they continued communicating in ym. The guy claimed to be Lemon Brown, from UK. After 3 months of communicating they came to a point that they became engaged and the guy said he would come to the Philippines to marry my friend. Nov. 7, 2010 was suppose to be his arrival in the Philippines but then on the afternoon of nov. 7 he called my friend that he was detained in kuala Lumpur because the customs & immigration there had suspicion that he had brought a big money with him and he asked my friend to help him get out from there by sending money to bail him out. he asked to send $1,200. My friend told about this to her family so the family made some research including me. We then discovered that Malaysia is now a hot spot for nigerian scammers. That was the first time we all know & heard about nigerian scammers and we knew then that there were already a lot of filipina & other asian victims. My friend did not send the money but unfortunately 2 weeks b4 the scammers's suppose to be arrival in my country he asked my friend to send him personal identification which he said he needed to obtain his documents for the marriage. he also send to my friend a fake document which my friend filled up with his thumbprints & signature and send back to the scammer. That is now what we are all trying to find a way to protect my friend's identity. But anyway we already reported it to the authorities & other government agency who can help my friend. No wonder one of these days th scammer will pose in any website using my friend's pictures & other documents. So guys when u meet along the way someone named Lemon Brown, he is a scammer with african accent and poor english grammar. My friend now is so upset.
