[Scam]: Are You Dead or Alive?

8/2/2011

 
This is another one of those scams that claims that someone said you are dead, and that someone else will get your "fund" if you are. They don't go into any details about what this "fund" is or where it came from. That's because it doesn't exist. Of course, you are supposed to be outraged that someone thinks you are dead, that this someone is attempting to get money that is due to you, and you're supposed to prove that you're still alive to get it. Don't be fooled by this BS, it's just another scam. There is no "fund," it does not exist, and it never did. This entry is linked here in the upper right hand corner, but don't be frightened by the skeleton. He's just a Halloween costume. Pretty effective, isn't it? LOL.

[Scam]: Urgent Notification

5/29/2011

 
This is one in which you are the "current beneficiary" of a large sum of nonexistent money, and they want to know if you signed any "deed of assignment" to another person, supposedly allowing them access to your "money." They fear that you have passed away, you see, and the "new beneficiary" is now ready to pay the "release fee." What they hope, of course, is that you will come through for them, outraged, say that you are not dead, and that you will gladly pay the release fee for the money that doesn't exist. They give all sorts of details, including a bank name, and routing and account numbers. If you call the bank, you would quickly find that the account does not exist, or if it does, that it belongs to another person who knows nothing about this. To see more of these "dead or alive" scam samples, Click Here. Don't be alarmed at the "gruesome photo," it's just an effectively scary Halloween costume. I want y'all to be aware that it's there, though, so brace yourselves. Please follow me on Twitter @inscamerated. Thank You.

    My name is Gary, and I live in the Midwestern United States. This site is intended to expose the frauds and scams that are so pervasive on the internet, especially today. One hundred per- cent of the e-mails you get that promise you millions are never, ever real. They'll tell you they're "dying," trying to gain your sympathy. They're not dying, they're lying. Click Here for the "Dying" scams. Don't fall for it, and never send them any money, no matter what they tell you. Oh, and good luck hacking this website. It's got a nice strong password on it.
