Universal Assets Ltd.

There's nothing like a scammer telling us we've been chosen because of our honesty and reliability.  What I find interesting about these scammers is that they play on the  negative emotions Napoleon Hill writes about in his book, "Think and Grow Rich."

Those negative emotions  Hill writes about include: Fear, Jealousy, Hatred, Revenge, Greed, Superstition, Anger and Lack.  This email scam plays obviously on a person's fear, greed and lack.

Dear Friend,

I work in an executive capacity with the above company . I was recently drafted to our London office annex on a special assignment which borders on the verification, reconciliation and revalidation with our bankers on the true ownership/beneficiary of certain fund deposits long with them.

I chose to contact you because of my urgent search for a honest and reliable business partner that I can present as the beneficiary of some funds running into multi million dollars (i.e.which I will disclose later to you). My official position gives me the power to present anybody I chose as the real beneficiary of the fund for an immediate payment approval. 

Upon a successful claim of the fund in your names as beneficiary, I will embark on other arrangement on how to meet with you in your country concerning the sharing mode and any joint investment arrangements in properties or any other lucrative business venture in your country if you are interested.

As part of  the sharing arrangement, you will be entitled to 40% of the total sum while you shall reserve 60% of the fund for me pending my arrival in your country. You can ahead and send to me your details as shown below for the commencement of the business .

1. Your Full Name.
2. Your   Address.
3. Your Personal Phone and Fax nos.
4. Your Age and Occupation.

Thanking you in advance for your anticipated co-operation.

Yours Sincerely,
Paul Adim.

No person who is enthusiastic about his work has anything to fear from life.~ Samuel Goldwyn

GREAT ACHIEVEMENT IS BORN OF A STRUGGLE.

 

"Our strength grows out of our weakness," said Ralph Waldo Emerson. "Not until we are pricked and stung and sorely shot at, awakens the indignation which arms itself with secret forces." Strife and struggle can inspire you to overcome adversity and to propel yourself to real achievement. View every struggle as an opportunity for personal growth. It is the struggle itself, not the result that builds character. If you know you are right, stay the course even though the whole world seems to be against you and everyone you know questions your judgment. When you prevail-and you eventually will if you stick to the job-they will all tell you that they knew all along you could do it.

This positive message is brought to you by the Napoleon Hill Foundation. Visit us at http://www.naphill.org. We encourage you to forward this to friends and family. They can sign up for this free service at our web site.

Scammers know a good thing when they find it.  Take a legitimate business name and then change the pertinent information and redirect it to the scammer's email account.  I doubt there will ever be a way to stop these criminals, but posting the emails is a way to get the word out.

Why Would You Want to Do Business With a Thief?

That question kept rattling around in my head as I read the following email I received from yet another scammer.  He clearly states in his correspondence that he "moved some money", basically skimmed, embezzled  funds that were not HIS.  And then he has the audacity to desire to search out a "God fearing person" to help him perpetrate his crime?  So sad....

SNOWE Edwin Jr.,

Dear Sir ,

My name is SNOWE Edwin Jr., A member of the Liberian House of Representatives and the Managing Director  of the Liberian Petroleum and Refining Corporation (LPRC) under the leadership of Charles Taylor.    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4871584.stm

As you may be aware my former boss is undergoing trial in the  world court. And as a result we have been ban from Traveling out pending the end of the case. http://www.un.org/sc/committees/1521/1521_list.htm

During my tenure as the petroleum Director, I was able to move some money, the sum of  Five million Five Hundred Thousand United states dollars, out of Liberia.

Presently, I am contacting you because I want you to assist me in collecting the money and assist me in importation of goods.

I hope to trust you as a God fearing person who will not sit on this money when you claim it, rather assist me properly, I shall be ready to offer you 30%.

When I receive your positive response I will let you know where the country where the money is and to enable  make the claim

Be assured that this transaction is 100% risk free and your participation will not bring you into any  disrepute as confidentiality is assured.     Best Regards,    
SNOWE Edwin Jr.  <edsn@o2.pl>

Scammers Scam Yahoo Email Account Information

I received the following email from a friend the other day.  As soon as I received it, I called her - even though the email indicated my friend was without her phone.  It went to voicemail, so I left her a message to call me.   Here's the email (I've replaced my friend's name with xxxxxx so as to protect her true identity):

Hope this urgent message finds you in good health. I am away in Nigeria on a short business trip, unfortunately for me I was robbed overnight, I am so confused right now, I do not know what to do or where to go,I did not bring my phone here, I have access to only emails. Please can you send me $3,500(USD). As soon as I get back I would refund it immediately. Please all I need you to do is to go to any Western Union outlet and send me the money before the bank here closes. Below are my details for the western union transfer.

Receivers name: Ixxxxx Wxxxxx
 
Address/location:  25 Nepa street, Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria. 23401

Please use this Text Question and Answer below in sending the money;
Test Question : Who is the receiver ?
Test Answer: Ixxxxxx

As soon as its sent, send me a copy of the money transfer receipt or just write out the money transfer number and the senders name and address. Would be waiting.
 
Best Regards,

Several things in the email tipped me off to the fact that this was indeed a scam:  She had no business in Nigeria.  She always starts her emails with some sort of greeting  like "Hi Gang", etc.   I am always suspicious of ANYONE who suggests I use Western Union to send money.  The grammar and tone of the email is just NOT my friend's style.  She would never close an email with "Best Regards".

Several hours later my friend chatted me on Yahoo Messenger asking, begging and pleading for me to help her out.  I asked a few simple questions that only my friend would know.  The scammer did not pass the test of the simple questions.  So I knew my friend's email account had been phished.

Another hour or so later my friend called me to verify that her email account had been compromised and that she was on her way to the local Police Station to report it.   We do not know yet if any of her other friends or contacts actually fell for this and wired any money to this scammer, but beware, some will do ANYTHING to rob innocent people of their money including hi-jacking people's email accounts.

Another Scam Employment Email

The sole purpose of posting these emails is for those who might also receive one and think it is a real opportunity.  If you always keep in mind that Legitimate offerings do not sent out randomly to strangers, then you will not get caught up in what could end up being a money laundering or parcel shipping scheme.  Here’s the email and pertinent information.

Please note several things:

#1  I did not reformat the email.  Most ‘business’ or ‘professional’ companies use ‘business’ format and etiquette, they don’t just bunch everything in one paragraph.

#2 In this particular email, the scammer does not even give his/her name

#3  No legitimate company is going to be satisfied with your just providing a few personal details.  There is always an official application to be submitted for review, interviews, etc,  be it on line or off line

#4  The ‘position’ is the typical, red flags.

You COULD report something like this to the appropriate ISP, as in this case, it would be Gmail, but these scammers know it is not long before they will get shut down, so they send out the mail, hope to get a few victims and then go on to create a new email address and go again.  I’d recommend just deleting it.

Be safe.
