I’ve long since said that loan scammers are the thickest and most stupid of scammers. This person (or team of people) is no exception. He has left his scam loan offer 3 times as a comment on a post about (oooooh, let me stop and think about this. Oh yes, I know…) a scam loan […]

Your AT&T wireless bill is ready to view
It seems unlikely that many people would be expecting their AT&T bill to be so high, so this scammer is hoping you will panic and click on the link in this email. The website it takes you to is infected with malware, according to my antivirus software. If your computer allows you to access the […]
OUR DEAR CUSTOMER
If there was any truth in this do you think that: a) Western Union would send you an email headed “our dear customer” b) Western Union would start their email with “attn dear” Of course they wouldn’t. You know as well as I do that you aren’t expecting $2.5m. Ignore this scammer who just wants […]
Hello
This scammer hasn’t “sourced your profile from a human resource profile database”. He’s bought a list of millions of email addresses to send his scam email to. I’m sure I don’t really have to tell you that he doesn’t have $30m to share with me, or you, or anyone else. He’s hoping that he will […]
No Subject
This scammer has emailed me from Sri Lanka with a daft story about having won $800k. He hasn’t told me how I’m supposed to have won or why. Ignore this idiot – you haven’t won anything and he is just hoping you will be daft enough to send him money. Att;winner, We are please to […]
REPLY ME BACK
This scammer needs a brain scan, not cancer treatment. A scan to see if his brain is actually there! He tells me he has the “little sum” of $37m which is, apparently, “the only money” he has with the bank. Oh dear – I’d hate to take money from anyone that is reduced to their […]
Congratulations!! You've won $1m
I’m sure you don’t really need me to tell you that Facebook don’t run a random lottery programme. This scammer even has the cheek to ask you to send them $850 for fees. Apparently, if I don’t send it my claim will “AUTOMATICALLY BE FORTIFIED”. The scammer doesn’t tell me what it will be “fortified” […]
DIAMOND GLOBAL FINANCIAL SERVICES.
If you do as suggested and visit this scammer’s website, you will realise immediately that there is no such organisation as “Diamond Global Financial Services”. The website is blank and is just a freebie website. This scammer has no intention of loaning you anything – he or she is hoping that you will send him […]
hi
“Mrs. Maimouna Khalid” is the second person today to write and tell me that she is dying from cancer and has millions of dollars to share with me. She omitted the usual bit about being widowed, childless and having devoted her life to God/Allah. Don’t believe a word this scammer has written. His or her […]
RE: Notification: ******DESIGNS.COM Domain
“Your order #11111111” has NOT “been received” because, like me, you have never heard of this rogue company, domurlannual, and certainly haven’t placed an order with them. My regular registrar charges me approx $10 a year to register a domain, not the $75 that this company are trying to trick me into paying. Ignore these scammers […]
US Airways reservation confirmation.
This could be interesting. Apparently I am booked on two different flights, both due to leave Washington DC at 10am tomorrow. DON’T click on the link in these fake emails. The website it takes you to is infected with malware. If you clicked on the link and your antivirus software didn’t prevent you from accessing […]
GOOD DAY
“Mike Dave” has emailed me from Lagos in Nigeria to tell me that he represents a company in Yorkshire, UK. I think that’s a bit unlikely, don’t you? Although I live in the West Midlands of the UK, not Yorkshire, I don’t think that I would count as an “overseas” investment – it’s dry land […]
APPLY FOR A LOAN AT A LOW INTEREST RATE OF 2%
Reputable loan firms don’t send out random emails asking you for all your personal details. This scammer can’t even spell “Englanda” correctly! The registration number given in the email is fake – you can check it for yourself on the Financial Services Association website here http://www.fsa.gov.uk/register/firmSearchForm.do If you make the mistake of replying you will find […]
