I received an email telling me i had a Bank draft in the amount of $800,000.00 waiting to be sent to me at Fedex. All I needed to do was pick which shipping charges I was to pay. The amounts ranged from $950 to $450. This was due in advance. Just for the hell of it I gave them my phone#. I received a call telling me that I had to pick an option then call Mr Churchill at the phone# on the email (sorry cant find that email) I then forwarded the email to abuse@fedex.com and afterwards received an irate call from Mr. Kenneth Collins (I think that he mixed up the names for the emails list a Kenneth James and a Mr. Morgan Collins) He was angry that I had sent this to Fedex, and told me to "just follow the instructions!!" I told him there were no instructions, and to resend the original email. He also sent me an email from the f.b.i._washingteam@live.com from the desk of Mr Robert Mueller. I called the FBI in Washington and guess what "no Mueller" and that this was a scam.I received several more calls (blocked number calls) from Kenneth Jame/ Morgan/Collins (whoever he is telling me that he was for real and that he was calling th FBI to set them straight. He called me 8 times on 11/18. I did not answer the phone. I then decided to send an email to mailto:tcarecenter1191@yahoo.com.hk with this statement
My Daughter has an account with FEDEX. If this is LEGITIMATE and these are the REAL SHIPPING CHAGES AND INSURANCE CHARGESthen we should have no problem. My daughter says to bill it to her account. I have the required authorization from her and her company imformation and account number. I await your call. I am also forwarding a copy of this and all other emails to Fedex for verification. You have my number. Needless to say I have not heard back from these crooks. Why can't something be done about these scumbags? I know that an elderly couple in local area lost thousands to a similar scam. I wish I had the resources to confront these dirtbags, because I would I can't wait for round 2 of this saga. I am hoping that this will catch the attention of the person (s) who are able to catch and punish these criminals. |

Don't Be Stupid

You thought you'd be cute and play games with this crook. "Just for the hell of it I gave him my phone #". You gave him your phone number and now he's calling you. Dumb move. Now your phone number is out there for the internet world to see and use. "My daughter has an account with FedEx". Since they were trying to charge you $450 to $950 in shipping charges, I know exactly where we're going with that statement. You next move would be to give them your daughter's FedEx account number to save the $450 to $950 in shipping charges. Don't be an a*s. Then they'd have your daughter's FedEx account number just like they have YOUR telephone number. STOP playing games with these clowns. They do this for a frickin' living. You AND your daughter are trying to play detective. DON'T. Just delete their e-mails before you get yourself into some really hot water.

There is not much that can be done..

..to stop this. Other then people stop believing they are getting large sums of money out of the blue for doing nothing..and someone wants you to send them money first.
It is already illegal to defraud people like this. The problem is, what can any law enforcement agency do to stop a scammer from sending an email to you? Nothing, it is a free system.
Anyone can set up an email account with no ID (hence using fake names), and anyone can buy a cheap disposable pre paid cell phone, which as well in not traceable.
And once these scammers have you wire any funds via Western Union..that as well, is untraceable.
So nothing can really be done other then people wise up. These scammers are preying on peoples greed and ignorance, and it often works.
Once in while the scammers are busted, but this is usually the result of a sting operation conducted by dateline or the FBI. But it is not like any agency has the funds or manpower to go after every scammer in the world doing this. People just need to wise up. There are no shortages of reports and information all over the internet about these types of scams. Yet, people still fall for it, amazing.
