Re:Scam?? Strange things afoot
For anyone interested:
This is a website dedicated 100% to the scam you are being subjected to: http://www.419eater.com/ The funny part is, the purpose of this website is to take advantage of the 419 scammers (as it's called), and scam them. If you read through, some of the stories are hillarious. The scammers think they've got you hook line and sinker, and if your as good as the guys on this website, you can actually scam them pretty good. They are all stupid ------- criminals from overseas. Don't go through with it... but browsing through this website might give you some HILLARIOUS ideas on how to play with this little scammer. Matt |
Re:Scam?? Strange things afoot
aren't certified checks from the bank? meaning, you go to the bank and they right you a check and withdraw the money right out of your account, just like a money order basically, but it's from the bank, there fore, how would you have to wait for it to clear, the funds have already been approved for it ???

Re:Scam?? Strange things afoot
Thats what got me...certified check ....but
A. The Certified check blanks can be stolen and filled in. If its overseas it takes a few days for capital to transfer and for the bank to discover its a bogus check or B. The Checks can be conterfit, for which the same as above is applied I just read the 419 website above and I think I might mess with these people. I just sent out some more questions to the people, and I am going to create a seperate Yahoo account dedicated to this, and make up some BS about how the Email account I was using is being shut down |

PERIOD.. i been waiting for an opportunity like that to come my way.. take it... seriously they can't do anything. Then, even if you do end up getting the cash (which does happen, or this scam wouldn't even exist) that amount is referenced against your account. Even though you did not write the check, you'll be held accountable. So after your account sits negative for awhile, it will be charged off, your name will go to chexsystems so that you can never open an account again anywhere until the old account is payed off. Furthermore, if the amount is substantial, the bank will actively pursue getting their money back through litigation. If only it was as easy as you supposed it to be. |
