CrossoverProfiles

A social community that connects you to the world

Let's educate ourselves about scams.

“Advance Fee Fraud” letter where people promise to help you find a job or get you a job. When you respond the person will ask for a small fee.

In the social communities like crossoverprofiles the person will have picture of an attractive woman who claims to be the "hotel director, hotel manager".

These comments are meant to lure job seekers into parting with money or personal information to get the job.

Remember legitimate companies don’t use yahoo as their email they use the companies email address. Don’t reply or contact this people.

Here is a sample letter/comment:

ANOTHER E_MAILS SCAM...


YOUR ASSISTANCE IS NEEDED/CONFIDENTIAL
boateng essien
Attention Please,


Pardon me for not having the pleasure of knowing your mindset before making you this offer and it is utterly confidential and genuine by virtue of its nature.


I am Mr Boateng Essien, the branch manager of the international Commercial Bank, Kaneshie First Light Branch Accra Ghana. I got your address from the Internet through the consultancy directory during my search for a reliable and honest person to transact this business with.

I write to solicit your assistance in a funds transfer deal involving US$2,300.000.00.


This fund has been stashed out of the excess profit made last year by my branch office of the International Commercial Bank of Ghana which I am the manager.


I have already submitted an approved end-of-the-year report for the year 2008 to my head office here in Accra-Ghana and they will never know of this excess.


I have since then, placed this amount on a Non-Investment Account without a beneficiary. Upon your response,I will configure your name on our database as holder of the Non-Investment Account.


I will then guide you on how to apply to my head office for the Account Closure/ bank-to-bank remittance of the funds to your designated bank account. If you concur with this proposal,


I intend for you to retain 30% of the funds while 70% shall be for me. Your earliest response would be appreciated on the regards.


Looking forward to hearing from you soon.


Best Regards,


Mr. Boateng
