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.

Courier Scam hwkbest@yahoo.it - CONTACT TNT COURIER DELIVERY IMMEDIATELY - tntcourier.delivery@rediffmail.com

I got about a dozen of these this morning, all the same... The courier scam
is done to death. Your money is stuck and you need to pay a courier fee to
get the money free, then more fees, then more fees, then yet another fee
until you stop and then the emails end.. Always a scam.

I,am,Rev.John Eze, the Driector of Credit Bank Benin Republic. This is to
bring to your notice that, I, have paid the fee of your ATM CARD, because
the ATM-card worth $2.2,M USD has less a month to expire and when it expires
the money will go into Government reserve. With that I decided to help you
pay the money so that the ATM CARD will not expire,because, I know when you
get your ATM CARD definitely you must compensate me.

Now, your ATM CARD has been deposited with TNT Courier for delivery direct
to your doorstep.therefore, I, want you to contact TNT Courier Company with
your Full Contact informations, so that they can deliver your ATM CARD to
your designated address without any delay. Like I stated earlier, The
delivery charges has been paid but i did not pay their official keeping
fees, I would have paid that but they said no because they don't know when
you will contact them and in case of demurrage.

As of now, I deposited it on 2nd of July 2011 therefore, try to contact
them immedaitly to aviod any increasement of the securitye keeping fee.
