A number of scams has been published involving fleecing of the investor or the lender. However there are supposed investor scammer:
1. Nigerian scam - The party is supposed to be a recipeient of million dollar inheritance. Now if the
reader of the letter would be willing to fork out x $ to facilitate the documentation
2 Romantic scam - the lady usually is a marine or armed forces officer who has stash of gold
or currency taken from the warlords. Now if the reader can advance money transfer facilitation for
xxx$ amount....
3. A former business partner who is now in USA asked me in DM if I am aware of IFC benefits for
those senior who are unemployed. I tried ot access the IFC but was denied. Went back to the
fmr business partner He referred me to a Korean sounding person who would facilitate the release
of the funds. He came back soon and said if I could fork out $500.00 I would get $50,000 benefits, $700 for $70,000 $1,000 for $100,000 (thats a lot P6M) for only P60,000. Variant of Nigerian scam? Or was his FB account hacked and used for scam. He never contacted me again.
4. Lately this post got solicitation from a North American principal He asked for a proposal and I
asked for a proposal. This post asked data from him which he never sent. I sent him an executive
summary and rebuked me on certain matters not related to the matter of the investment. I thought
he was just fishing for the idea.
Would you fall for any of this?
