First of all, the real FBI doesn't e-mail anyone, at least not us "peons," anyway. "John Will" wants you to believe very much that he's with the "FBI." They've been in a "series of meetings" with the "UN secretary general" and the "Nigerian President" for "seven months," and it's been "decided" that you're "owed" a "fund" of USD$850,000. Then "John" asks how would you like your "funds," by check or by ATM card? You can get either one, but if you hurry, you'll save $240, and pay "only" $135 instead! What a deal! LOL! Of course, if you send them any money at all, you'll never see anything. They even have a "24 hour guarantee." If you don't get your "funds" by then, you can call them for a refund, but of course there won't be any refund. It will be an "excuse" why you didn't get your "fund," and it will cost additional fees. This repeats over and over until you catch on, or until you're out of money. This is the classic Nigerian 419 advance fee fraud. It can be very expensive, and it's very dangerous. Don't fly over there looking for nonexistent cash, because people have been killed for this before. Click Here for more FBI scam stories. The "Robert Mueller" scams are very popular too. Click Here.

Scams

AuthorMy 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.
