Beaware of Advance Fee Scams - 419 SCAMS

Home Strangers Letters Documents Pictures Links Support Contact Whattodo Sitemap

My Nigerian pen pals.

Have you ever received an email from a stranger in Nigeria promising you millions of dollars? - You should just delete it, because it is a pack of lies.

However, some people answers them, and they soon find out that they have to pay some fee in order to get the millions. Then comes the second fee, and the third fee, etc etc. No one has ever received the millions, but many have lost a lot of money, and some have even got killed.

This so called "Advance Fee Fraud" has become an industry in Nigeria, and the surrounding countries. Another common name is "419 fraud" after Section 419 of the Nigerian Penal code, the section that specifically prohibits this type of crime.

The fraud is difficult to stop, but we can have some fun, and have the criminals use their time in vain. That is called scambaiting.

If you are new to this sport, I will recommend you to look at the links-page.

Have fun,

Warning

The scammers that send these fraud letters are criminals. They want your money, and they use force to get it, if that is necessary. You should never travel to meet a scammer! When they get annoyed, they will send you threatening letters. The threats are probably empty, but it shows what kind of people these criminals are.

Watch Out!

Another growing problem in the world of scams is forex fraud. With the increasing popularity of retail forex trading, fraudsters have found a new venue to attract unsuspecting victims. One of the most recent scams is the marketing of fail-safe automated forex trading software. These “machines” claim to make you quick, easy money, when instead they usually leave you with regrets. Be on the look out for emails of people boosting these bots, it's a sure fire way of losing your investment! Services like fraud protection can help with other scams like identity theft.

I have set up the this website because I am worried for all those who are tempted by the millions of dollars they are offered by the scammers. I hope that my stories will make them realize that it is all lies. Many of the stories contain names of real persons, banks and historic events, and it shows that the scammers will use every trick in the book to get you to pay.

Polye wins challenge

Source: The National, Tuesday 05th March, 2013

By ADRIAN MATHIAS

DEPUTY Chief Justice Gibbs Salika dismissed an election petition against the Treasurer and Kandep MP Don Pomb Polye yesterday for non-compliance of court directions by the petitioner.
The petition was brought before the court of disputed returns in Port Moresby by lawyer and losing candidate Alfred Luke Manase after the elections last year.

Manase and Polye were candidates for the Kandep open electorate in Enga. Manase, who was represented by Christine Copeland, said there were errors and omissions during the counting of votes at Wabag, Enga’s capital.He alleged that returning officer Naipet Keae and counting officials had manipulated figures polled during the counting which had resulted in Polye winning the Kandep seat.Manase also claimed that some ballot boxes were not counted.
However Polye, the founder and leader of the Triumph Heritage Empowerment (THE) Party, filed an objection to competency of the petition through his lawyer Palus Doa to dismiss the petition.
The case went into directions hearing twice in the court of disputed returns in Port Moresby, the first being on Nov 26 last year and then on Feb 7, when the court issued directions to the parties to file and serve affidavits on each other.
Salika, while dismissing the petition in its entity yesterday for non-compliance of court orders, on Feb 7 had directed the Electoral Commission’s lawyer Ray Williams to file affidavits by Feb 11 and Copeland by Feb 15.
When the matter came before him yesterday, he found that Williams had filed accordingly but Copeland had not as she was on on leave.
Salika refused her reason and said the non-compliance of court orders was three months since Nov 26, adding that it was not a day or two.
He told Copeland that she should have advised another lawyer from within the firm to step in for her while she was on leave.
Salika said court orders and directions were meant to be complied with and failure to do so, as in the case of election petition, resulted in dismissal.
He then upheld the objection to competency filed by the treasurer and dismissed the petition in its entirety. The petitioner will pay the costs

Engineers and contractors warned to progress work

Source: The National, Monday 04th March, 2013

WORKS and Implementation Minister Francis Awesa yesterday expressed disappointment at the slow progress of two important road links in Enga and the Southern Highlands.
Awesa made a surprise visit to inspect progress of the Kandep-Mendi and Kandep-Laiagam roads and warned contractors and engineers that the roads, which were commissioned a year ago, were progressing far too slowly.
The K500 million road is funded by a loan from the Asian Development Bank and built by a Chinese firm, Covec Ltd.
Awesa met with ADB engineers on site as well as Covec’s contracting engineers.
“Contractors must comply with all standards for the ADB K500 million Mendi-Kandep and Kandep-Laiagam roads.
“Works engineers must work with the consulting engineers to ensure claims of work being done are certified before any payment is made.
“It is important this is done as it is the people who are paying the ADB loan,” Awesa said.
He warned that while progress on the roads must pick up, he would not tolerate any short-cuts by contractors and engineers.

Chamber, villagers claim roadwork badly done

Source: The National, Friday 22nd February, 2013
By JAMES APA GUMUNO

SOUTHERN Highlands chamber of commerce and industry has supported calls by villagers from Hum in Mendi claiming that a K500 million road construction from Mendi to Enga was not properly constructed.
Chamber president Berry Mini told The National yesterday that the road was a vital economic link for Enga, Hela and Southern Highlands.
He said the gravel and limestone were mixed with ground and gradually wearing out due to constant movement of trucks and machines working on the road.
“We, the beneficiaries of this road, want value for money work to be carry out by the contractor and not a rush job and walk away with K500 million,” he said.
“I want to call on the works engineers from the three provinces to closely supervise the contractor to ensure that the scope and design of the roadwork is carried out.”
He said that government works engineers should be blamed because they were supposed to supervise the work and advise the contractor on all aspects of the road construction.
Another concern citizen, Enoch Yangala, from Kandep district, Enga, expressed similar sentiments.
Yangala said the people were happy that they would have a better road network but the quality of construction was now a major concern.
He said they wanted proper work to be carried out so that the road would last for a long time.

Acting solicitor general appointed

Source: The National, Wednesday 20th February, 2013

JUBILEE Tindiwi, an experienced lawyer, has been appointed acting Solicitor General.
She is the third woman appointed to top justice ranks in the country this year following those of the chief magistrate and acting chief Ombudsman.
"She commands more than nine years of experience as a lawyer and is no stranger to the responsibilities of this high legal office," Attorney-General Kerenga Kua said.
"Ms Tindiwi is very familiar with the government structure and procedures and I am confident that she will discharge her duties diligently."
Kua said considering the current situation, the Office of Solicitor General needed a person with high management and leadership background to lead young officers.
Tindiwi comes from Karekare village, upper Wage constituency, Kandep district in Enga

MP urges govt to back Mt Kare mine

Source:The National, Thursday 21st February, 2013

By JEFFREY ELAPA

LAGAIP-Porgera MP Nixon Mangape has urged the government to support the Mt Kare mine by renewing Indochine’s exploration licence for another two years.
He also called on the people to support the company so that the Mt Kare project would start in the next two years as they have missed opportunities over the past 20 years due to landowner feuds.
Mangape, who comes from the area, said Indochine had discovered gold resource of more than two million ounces so far and needed to do more exploration.
He said he supported the extension and renewal of their exploration license.
Mangape added that leaders in Enga and Hela supported the Mt Kare project as the developer would partner with them to deliver infrastructure, services and benefits to the two provinces and their people.
“I call on the landowners to support us to work together for the benefit of the people.
“I appeal to all so-called landowners living in Port Moresby and Mt Hagen to stop grumbling and waste time in the media.
“I urge you to go back home and support Indochine mining.
“You have missed opportunities because of your tribal fights but now it’s time to change,” Mangape said.
“I’m also a landowner and a mandated leader. I represent the voices of the people and therefore I want the people to support me and the company to get the mine operating.”

Stop the bloodshed in Kandep

Source: The National, Monday 18th February, 2013

TRIBAL fighting in Kandep has escalated since July last year with high-powered weapons now being used.
Some 50 lives have been lost, almost 20 villages destroyed and properties lost.
Children are being denied their right to schooling, health services have stopped and people are suffering from sickness.
All the schools in Kandep have been closed.
The fighting was sparked off by the killing of a man who was travelling from Kandep Station to his village.
The Enga police chief has remained quiet over this and the local leaders have chosen not to do anything about it. They act if as nothing is going on.
Kandep leaders appear unconcerned now that the general election is over.
While the elections may indeed be over, violence which stemmed from it is still going on.
The leaders should talk to their supporters and get them to surrender their weapons.

Kandep tribal fight continues

yutok

Friday 08th February 2013

IT IS over seven months and the tribal fight in Kandep is still continuing.
The tribal fight in Kandep has escalated since it started in July 2012 right after the elections.
The men are using high-powered guns and countless lives have been lost, properties destroyed and almost 20 villages have been totally destroyed.
School children are denied their rights to education, health services have stopped, and mothers and children are dying from curable diseases.
The only high school in Kandep, five primary schools and several elementary schools are closed.
The fighting started right after election when a man travelling along from Kandep Station to his village was chopped to pieces. Hence, 15 council wards and some 20 villages are involved in the fights. Almost 50 lives have been lost so far and the fighting is still continuing.
It is not known why the Enga Police Commander is keeping quiet on this issues as well as the Enga Provincial Government and the leaders in Kandep are doing nothing about it.
They are pretending as if there is nothing going on while women and children are suffering.
The women and children have fled their homes and are seeking refuge in Mendi, Southern Highlands Province and the issue of food security has become a major concern.
The lack of appropriate action to stop this madness by people in authority and the leaders leaves much to be desired.
It seems that the leaders of Kandep are more concerned during elections and do not care once it’s over.
This is much more election related violence and I call on the leaders to talk to their respective supporters and disarm them.
Women and children are the victims in this tribal fight and immediate action is required including relief supplies to help them.
This is a man-made disaster where children are denied their right to education, health services and many people are dying of hunger.
I call on the Police Commander and the National Government to take appropriate action in the absence of Enga Police and the Provincial Government who seem to turn blind eye to the issue.
I urgently appeal to those in authority to take appropriate measures so that mothers and children can return to their normal lives.

South Sydney Rabbitohs expecting a big crowd for trial match against PNG Kumuls

TRADITIONALLY a cardinal and mrytle affair, Saturday night's Return to Redfern trial clash will feature some very different faces.

Rabbitohs officials expecting hundreds of raucous Papuans to cheer on the visiting Kumuls, whose every move will also be evaluated by talent scouts from rival NRL outfits.

Despite being the only nation to declare rugby league its No. 1 sport, PNG remains virgin territory for most recruitment officers.

The 20-strong squad that will tackle Souths this weekend is wholly comprised of PNG residents, with some based in remote highland regions where brutal 'eye-for-an-eye' tribal customs still reign supreme.

Dreadlocked prop Esau Siune hails from the village of Kundiawa in Simbu province, which is likely to be banned from hosting matches in this year's local competition because of repeated violence.

It's little wonder Rabbitohs three-quarter Bryson Goodwin was anticipating a physical contest after coming face-to-face with Siune and his team mates at Redfern yesterday.

"I'm sure they are going to be hard to play," he said.

"They've even got a guy nick-named the mini jukebox because he produces so many big hits.

"They'll be energetic and enthusiastic."

Recruitment officers learned that much last weekend, when they watched the Kumuls win the Cabramatta International Nines tournament after conceding just two tries.

Along with Siune, halves Dion Aiye and Israel Eliab attracted interest from Sydney-based player agents that could pave the way for NRL contracts.

PNG coach Adrian Lam expects more recruitment officers to flock to Redfern for Saturday night's game.

"From what I've heard there will be about six clubs with recruitment officers here," Lam said.

"I don't know why clubs haven't concentrated on Papua New Guinea more.

"They've become very familiar with the Pacific islands, but no-one from PNG really gets picked-up unless they come to school in Australia first."

About 2,000 tickets remain available for the clash - one of seven trials being held this weekend.

Friday night's Manly-Cronulla hit-out at Brookvale Oval will boast the most high-profile players, with the Sharks rolling out all their new recruits barring Luke Lewis (oblique tear).

Michael Gordon, Chris Heighington, Beau Ryan and Jono Wright have all been included in the 31-man squad, along with established Sharks Wade Graham, Ben Ross, Isaac de Gois and Anthony Tupou.

Canberra have named stars Josh Dugan, Jarrod Croker, Sam Williams and Josh McCrone for Saturday night's game against Melbourne in Geelong, while Canterbury and Newtown will round out the weekend's action with the annual Back to Belmore fixture.

Wests Tigers also tackle Penrith in Bathurst, where the Panthers have named a slightly stronger team that includes first graders Clint Newton, Blake Austin and Nathan Smith.
