Scambusters, Preventing Internet Scams & Phishing Attempts

This blog is dedicated to help preventing internet fraud and internet scams. Scambusters was a radio show I started in Albany Oregon, but due to defaulted payment by the radio station we took the show offline. Regardless of this issue we still wish to help prevent internet fraud and save people from internet loss. I have been interviewed and featured in various publications such as the Wall Street Journal, New York Times & Daily News, The London Times & AARP Newsletters. Please watch this blog for latest tips and tricks and scams to avoid.

DR.SANUSI LAMIDO AMINU
EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR,
Central Bank Of Nigeria (CBN).
Plot 33, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Way,
Central Business District, Cadastral Zone, Abuja
ATTN:  BENEFICIARY
I am DR.SANUSI LAMIDO AMINU the new appointed Governor of Central Bank Of Nigeria (CBN). I was appointed because Pro. Charles Soludo the former Governor of Central Bank couldn't deliver all inheritance payment funds to the Foreigners.  I know that you might be surprise on this mail, but I am telling you the truth. I know that it is against my official duty to release confidential issue like this to an outsider. There is nothing I can do to help you beside this; I am taking this bold step because of my belief as a Christian. What I want to tell you is about your contract payment with the Federal Government of Nigeria, there are lot of forces working against you right from the last CBN Governor Prof Charles Soludo ,they have been frustrating you by demanding upfront payment from you constantly, If I tell you that they are using all these money you sent to them to work against you, you might not believe it. But it is reality. Meanwhile all the needed documents which will back up this consignment boxes have been well issued by the Federal Republic of Nigeria. You have nothing to fear even when depositing your fund into your bank account, and all those documents will accompany the diplomatic agent until he delivered your boxes to you and he will also present the documents to you immediately he get to your door-step.Have it in mind that your fund worth of $25million has been programmed for immediate payment and the fund will come to you through Diplomatic Cash Delivery to your door-step, and the reason we make this arrangement in order to pay you through Diplomatic Cash Delivery is because we are having little problem with the International Monitory Fund (IMF) so the method of our payment is by Diplomatic Cash Delivery to your door-step. I want to let you know that I have been able to finalize all necessary arrangements with the Management of the Courier service here. And your Funds have been packaged into two boxes .Meanwhile, I have done and paid up every necessary charges locally here, including the processing and cargo cost even the Airway-Bill Shipment and also the Air ticket of the Diplomatic agents that will be bringing the two consignments have been paid here to enable the Diplomats leave with the consignment and get it delivered to you right at your door step. Be informed that the Diplomats will leave this Country on Friday   this  week the 26th  Aug  2011 by 7:30am Nigeria standard Time and they have only 8hours to fly on air and they will be arriving in your Country by 9:00am US standard Time.The Name of the Diplomat is:- DIPLOMAT MISS JEAN HARRISON
1) Full Name:
2) Full Address;
3) Your contact telephone and fax number;
4) Copy of any valid form of your Identification;
FIRST DESTINATION INT'L AIRPORT IN UNITED STATE is: Sacramento California Air-Port , and this is where they will clear the two consignments boxes because there's no other flight destination from here to the US, then they will book a connect flight to the Airport closer to your City. Once they arrived at the Airport in your city after customs clearance at Sacramento CA Airport, they will proceed to your city for the final delivery of your consignment boxes. You can't meet them at the Airport for security purpose.
Note that once the diplomats arrived on  Friday  in your Country they will secure a mobile phone number which they will be using in communicating with you until they get your two consignment boxes delivered to you. Please my dear, I want you to do your best and make the needed fee available before the arrival of the diplomat in your Country on  Friday   morning because as soon as he arrived, he will call you from the Airport and instruct you on how to send the money to them down to the Airport to clear the consignments unexamined and immediately proceed down to your address for the final delivery of the boxes.
Please take note of this, the key codes to open the two boxes are (CBN890N for one and the other one is CBN676N), keep this to yourself and you will use it to open the boxes to calculate the money and make sure the money is complete before the Diplomat will leave your home ok. Once again, bear in mind that the diplomatic did not know the content of these boxes, what I told them that inside the consignment boxes are jewelries that belongs to you, so don't allow them to know the content of the boxes. Be informed that I don't really know the cost of clearing the boxes but it would be less than $750.00  because it's an official packaging and not commercial. As soon as the diplomatic agent arrives on  Friday they will notify you the exact cost.
PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THE DIPLOMAT TO GET STRANDED AT THE AIRPORT UPON THEIR ARRIVAL AND CONTACTING YOU. I will call you for oral discussion. Make sure you get back to me immediately before going to bed today.
Thanks
Dr. Sanusi Lamido Aminu
Executive Governor
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
NB: Try to keep this to yourself now that you are almost at the verge of receiving these funds from the Diplomtaic agent to avoid anything that will Jeopardize all your efforts at the end of the day.Attachment below is the official package of your funds and the Airway-Bill Shipment, please view it alone for security reasons.
