Beware PayPal and eBay Scam Artists! (3)

An eBay Security Measures email was sent to me lately although I don't have an eBay account associated to that email. The message from eBay as it appears on some details below is saying that I used my email address to login to eBay from three different locations.

Well, I have no any chance to move from my location now to any other location out side this one. So, I tried to contact them there to deliver the following message, but failed to do so:

I received an email from eBay Security Measures and that was an html message with your logo and everything there seems to be from eBay.

Details: Email Id : PP458
Headline: Notice of account temporary suspension
Stimated eBay member:

We regret to inform you that your eBay account, has been temporarily suspended due to various login attempts from diffrent global locations.

NOTE

This is a preventive Warning message for our users to be able to avoid fraudulent activity and future inconveniences.

As Romania is one of the most high rated fraudulent countries , we temporarily suspended your account to avoid future problems or misusage of your eBay account.

Here are the last 3 login attempts :

1. IP address : 193.105.3.173
ISP host : st13.i-cafe.orizont.net
Location : Romania

2. IP address : 80.97.171.22
ISP host : rds-net.bistrita.net
Location : Romania

3. IP address : 62.177.188.59
ISP host : adsl.bbeyond.ro
Location : Romania

If you are traveling and made these login attempts yourself or borrowed your eBay account to someone else , please log in below.
________________Please Read______

I assure you I've never used that email address to login from different places as stated above. I cannot even move from my recent location, so apparently there's somebody who are using my email address to do this purposely. This is a dirty plot.

Please be assured that I have nothing to do with this and in fact I am getting the same well designed html messages from those eBay artist spammers and I have posted one of them at: no-way-to-spam.blogspot.com

Kind regards

From Nigeria to Tanzania - The Scam Wind Blows!

I have some good free autoresponders there. There're more than 50 autoresponders. Heck, what's important on this issue?

Well, 10% of those autoresponders are capturing this kind of spam and other hacking attempts. When those prospects/spammers used the forms, they knew very well that I'll receive their message.

They know how forms work. So, the fact is that, if you take this email example below, the fact is that it was not sent from those names which appear on the lines below. It's not necessary that those names reflect the truth about the sender, and that's simply because anyone who knows something about those African issues could plot a kind of scam like this one.

This is a direct potential prospect, which is deep in this business online and he did request my auto responder manually. It's very important to mention that he also knows my African engagement in politics. But I'll never agree with him that - as this is the way it's supposed to be - I am so immature in this business online, so I'll believe him and send him all my bank account and other full personal information to grasp those millions of dollars.

Dear reader take much much care of this kind of online scam that is moving from Nigeria to Iraq to Tanzania, although it's absolutely a western new industry.

Here the scam goes

From: DR OMAR ALI JUMA drranialijuma @ latinmail . com
Date: Thu, 27 Dec 2029 10:11:01 +0100
Subject: DR OMAR ALI JUMA

Goodday,'

You may be surprised to receive this letter from me since you don't know me personally, I am DR RANI ALI JUMA, the first son of DR. OMAR ALI JUMA, and he was the VICE PRESIDENTof the REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA.

Before he died, my father died at the age of 63 in the year 2001 afteraddressing fellow TANZANIANS during the visit of PRESIDENT JOSEPH KABILA of DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO and YUERI MUSEVENI of UGANDA.

I got your contact through the Ghana information Exchange (G.I.E) in my search for a reliable and reputable person to handle a very confidential transaction which involves the transfer of fund to aforeign account and I decided to write you.

My late father was among the ruling party (CCM) which the opposition party was dominated by his Muslim brothers led byPROF. IBRAHIM LIPUMBA. Before his death he had taken to Europeto deposit the sum of US$40 million (FORTY MILLION UNITED STATESDOLLARS) with a security and finance company as if he foresaw the looming danger coming.

The money was deposited in two sealed boxes as valuables to avoidmuch demurrage from the security company. I most say that the death of my father has warned me and my whole family not to go back to politics. For the fact that PRESIDENT BENJAMIN MKAPA never showed any concern since the death of my father and after I discovered that my life was no longer safe I decided to leave to Ghana ,West Africa where I am residing now with my own family.

Meanwhile here in Ghana West Africa I don?t think of going back and for this I and my family have decided to transfer my father's money into a foreign account. As the eldest son of myfather, I am saddled with the responsibility of seeking a genuine foreign account where this money could be transferred without the knowledge of my government who have tacticall frozen our family wealth as I may not trust the system of African government.

Furthermore, the new Ghana government does not allow such investment hence i am seeking for a business person whom I must entrust my future and that of my family into his hands, I must let you know that this transaction is 100% RISK FREE and the nature of your business does not necessarily matter.

Therefore, if you accept to assist me and my family, we are willing to offer you 20% of the total sum for your assistance, 75% for me and my family, while 5% will be mapped out for any expenses that may be incurred in the process of this transaction.

We wish to invest our money on commercial property based on your advice and Iwill also wish assurance that you would not sit on this money when it is finally transferred into your personal or company's account.

If this transaction is acceptable by you, please confirm your interest through the above E-mail: drranialijuma @ latinmail . com , with your telephon and fax number for quick communication , as well as your full names and current address.

BEST REGARDS,
DR RANI ALI JUMA.

Scam from Banks! Incredible!

It doesn't matter if you receive posts from a bank, in your daily or weekly public announcement services as an announcement. But it does matter of course, if the announcement is addressed to you personally with your full name and postal address!

People accept only personal-sent announcements from those who know and after having them requested this service from those advertisers, by replying to a coupon, or any form else.

To receive an email from a bank that you don't have anything to do with it, is "worst scam"!

The following email I've received from a bank that I don't know and I've no any account in it, will give you the picture about how this scam is working, why and from where it has been arrived.

Before getting to the email here's a button logo from that email

Using OPEC Membership To Spam....!

I've no doubt this has nothing to do with OPEC. But you should take care of such claims. The following spam has arrived to my mail box with these details:

Return-Path: omriomri @ firstisrael. org .il

The sender used one of my domain addresses before I've changed them, or he might have some in-direct relations with one of my hosts, through which he has an access to know some details about those email addresses before I've changed them.

The message also is well written and the sender represents himself and his company membership in OPEC wisely in the first paragraph.

But you need to be more wise and never reply to such scam. Take any email like this into your spam folder. Block and report it.

I never had an account there. I am not still wondering any more about the relation between this company and Paypal, because I consider there's none, but this relation was designed to rob not only me but anybody else off.

PayPal itself has it own measures against frauds and scams and there're some useful guidelines on how to deal with emails claimed to be sent from PayPal.

How much it takes to take care?!

Subject: DEAR BELOVETH

From: Mad.. Fe..l..ia ....
Old Church Street,
Chelsea, ....
England.

Here writes ......, suffering from cancerous ailment. I am married to Eng.. S.. H... an Englishman who is dead. My husband was into private practice all his life before his death.

Our life together as man and wife lasted for three decades without child. My husband died after a protracted illness. My husband and I made a vow to uplift the
down-trodden and the less-privileged individuals as he had passion for persons who can not help themselves due to physical disability or financial predicament. I can adduce this to the fact that he needed a Child from this relationship, which never came.

When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of 3 Million (THREE Million Great Britain Pounds Sterling which were derived from his vast estates and investment in capital market with a Bank here in UK.

Presently,this money is still with the Bank. Recently, my Doctor told me that I havelimited days to live due to the cancerous problems I am suffering from.
Though what bothers me most is the stroke that I have in addition to the cancer. With this hard reality that has befallen my family, and me I have decided to donate this fund to you and want you to use this gift which comes from my husbands effort to fund the upkeep of widows, widowers, orphans, destitute, the down-trodden, physically challenged children, barren-women and persons who prove to be genuinely handicapped financially.

It is often said that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are bourgeois and very wealthy persons and I do not want my husband's hard earned money to be misused or invested into ill perceived ventures. I do not want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly manner, hence the reason for taking this bold decision.

I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be with the Almighty when I eventually pass on. The Almighty will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. I do not need any telephone communication in this regard due to my deteriorating health and because of the presence of my husband's relatives around me. I do not want them to know about this development. With God all things are possible.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank in UK. I will also issue you a Letter of Authority that will empower you as the original beneficiary of this fund. My happiness is that I lived a life worthy of emulation. Please always be prayerful all through your life.

Please assure me that you will act just as I have stated herein. Hope to hear from you soon and God bless you and members of your family.

Beware PayPal and eBay Scam Artists! (1)

These are two examples of email-scams you may receive from those scammers who are determined to empty your bank account. See them at the bottom of this post.

They follow your eBusiness progress and they catch any image to any eBank account on your store or any other simple website. They'll probably see an image to a PayPal account or any other credit cards there. They'll then follow these links and get manually more information.

It's completely correct that they'll not see any email address associated with your account details on your website, so they'll guess it from your business. Or they may just send like these emails to any email address they've captured from the net.

They also use the source codes of PayPal messages to clients to re-produce an alleged PayPal message and send it to you. They'll only redirect the links on this message to where they've prepared to rob you.

I'll give examples here to a PayPal main image to compare between the two and some details. In some emails I'd received even PayPal header and footer. This of course is designed to clarivy that there's no any doubt that these are PayPal's.



This is the same banner image on PayPal Home but the character(photo) on the left is not the same. The text link on the following banner has an additional word to that which is at PayPal Home, but it is not clickable because there's no link. Go and compare. You'll notice that I've recorded the IP address of this email too. The second email is at the coming post.

The very interesting thing about this email is that I don't have any PayPal account by such email or even by any of my domains. You should not operate a PayPal account using any of your normal free emails, your domain or other webmails you use for other purposes. You should have only one email for this purpose. For example this email address I am using and I am actually receiving like these spams through it, is operated exactly for only one purpose: to capture the wretched scam on the Internet and learn from it something positive.

This is the first email:

The Header details of the first email:

Return-Path: <daily120@nova.fast-servers.net> Received: from daily120 by nova.fast-servers.net with local (Exim 4.52) id 1E9LRf-0007pP-Bu for (then here was my email address)

Organized Scam!

Is it by coincidence that the following email from Mrs Rose Daniels is not different from that one sent by Mrs Susan Elliot Whales and posted bellow?

I don't think so, because the details in the two email-scams are the same.

The two ladies have a short time to live because they have cancer. They both are faithful and loyal to Christ. They both lost their husbands in two different circumstances 4, 5 years in sequence. They both have no children to inherit them.

But what about their family relations?
What about their circle of acquaintances?
Is there any meaning out of these two questions for the two ladies to request from any foreigner by mail his/her full information to drop all this wealth on his/her feet?

There's no answer more than that, they want to empty your bank account if you've received such email-scam.

----------------------------- The Scam --------------------------------
Dearest In Christ,
Calvary Greetings in the name of our lord Jesus Christ our saviour.

My name is Mrs Rose Daniels, wife to the late Eric Daniels from Dublin Ireland, I am old i have no family no kids,i lost my husband and my only two kids in a motor accident five years ago it's so sad for me right now, i am very ill with cancer,doctors says i have short time to live,i have decided to give my wealth to an honest person that can use it to glorify the name of the lord.

After i received instruction from my God to use this funds to do GODS work and to give to charity, i prayed to God for direction and he has been directing me. I told God that i want a ministry, or an honest person who will spend the fund for things that will glorify His name.

This revelation came after my conversion from to a Born Again christian I received Christ and i found out that a sinner has no place in the kingdom of God. I never had rest of mind, i seeked God for forgiveness and he Revealed to me that i will only have rest of mind if i serve him with all my wealth and he will bless me mightily.

It was when i received Christ that i realized the meaning of going to heaven. I need to make heaven, i don't want to perish in hell fire.As my level of Christianity was increasing,i understood that the wealth of sinners are acquired for the just. God opened my eyes to the book of Ecclesiastes 6,verses 1 & 2. Read this scripture and you will understand that there are people in this world that God gave the grace to acquire wealth yet God did not give them the grace to enjoy the wealth. I happened to fall into the same category now it is the wish of God.

When God revealed to me to use my wealth to do his work, i understood that God was testing me like He tested Abraham and other men of God. Abraham needed a child and God asked him to use his only son for sacrifice, Abraham was faithful. He obeyed and God made him father of many nations.

After the death of my late husband and when i was told about my illness i have to sell all our properties which amounted to about $20 million which i deposited with a security company in a box for safety purpose if anything happen to me this funds will be impounded can you use this funds for the kingdoms work and for charity purpose?

You can reply me to my private mail box: rose_daniels@mail.md
I believe faith has brouhgt us together and the lord will see us through, my dear you just have faith in God and all will be well.
In His Service,
Mrs Rose Daniels.
----------------------------- End --------------------------------

Although there're some religious facts here but the Lord has nothing to do with this offer, because its not true. Islam also has some kinds of those who are created to deceive people by the name of Islam to exhaust them economically or to rob their lands.

When thieves exploit the religion to make wealth to themselves, we need never to say religion is bad.

In all the experiences in my homeland and somewhere else, it happens usually that even leaders are using the religion to deceive their people and dominate the leadership theatre to make wealth to themselves, while their people are very poor.

Oh, we're getting off the point of this space;-) This should be a comment on one of my other blogs.

Sincerely

Interesting E-Mail About $27,600,000US

This is one of those interesting email-scams I am usually receiving from somebody who knows me but I don't know him or her. But it seems to me that I am about to capture him or her.

This interesting person uses different names and a lot of email addresses. Of course those email addresses are free and they're Yahoo email addresses and MSN email addresses.

By publishing these email addresses here, I am sending a message to Yahoo, MSN and other Internet Services Providers, to block those email addresses. I intend also to help you if you're getting those crazy email-scams to get rid of them and report them here on this page.

This person has different ways to tell his story. In his/her following email-scam, you'll see clearly how well he/she describes his/her situation and emphasizes on God to get you in touch. His/her intension is to arise your sincere and sentimental emotions to get your credit cards details or your bank account details at the end.

----------------- Start E-Mail --------------------
I am a citizen of malaysia undergoing treatment in London. I am married to Dr.Davis Elliot Whales who worked with Malaysia embassy in South Africa . We were childless for 11 yrs now. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we were both born again Christians. Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.

When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of twenty-seven Million six hundred thousand U.S. Dollars with one faniance/security company in Europe. Presently, this money is still with the Security Company. Recently, my Doctor told me that i have a short time due to cancer problem.

Though what disturbs me most is my stroke. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better still a christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want a church or individual that will use this to fund churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the house of God is maintained.

The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the hand that giveth. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and my husband relatives are not ChristianS and I dont want my husbands hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers.

I want this funds to be used for God's Purpose, hence the reason for taking this bold decision. Exodus fourteen verse foruteen says that the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. Telephone communication is impossible due to my health,and due to the presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I want to keep it secret. With God all things are possible.

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Finance/Security Company Europe. I will also issue you a letter of authority that will empower you as the original- beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard.

My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing for a church or christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to hear from you via my private email box:s_elliotwhales@yahoo.com.cn
BEST REGARD.
Mrs.Susan Elliot
----------------- End E-Mail --------------------

As this person calls him/herself Susan so I'll call it Susan. Susan has the following email addresses too: susanelliot113@msn.com, susanelliot1@yahoo.com.cn, susanelliot_whales1960@yahoo.com.cn,

I've received those messages with these details:
- Received: from bay5-dav13.bay5.hotmail.com (HELO hotmail.com) (65.54.172.117)
- from bay5-f5.bay5.hotmail.com (HELO hotmail.com) (65.54.173.5)
There're no path-ways to Yahoo's servers except the email addresses.
