Letter Source Report: This letter appears to have originated in The Netherlands according to the VisualRoute results. In fact, it originated from a location of 0000 GMT which places the swindler's computer smack dab in the British Isles. One may perhaps assume that the alias Tina "Wales" might provide a clue as to the actual location :) In this instance, it's best to report the scam mail to abuse@rediffmail.com. From their investor info: "Founded in 1996, Rediff.com is headquartered in Mumbai, India with offices in New Delhi and New York, USA." NOTE: The swindler tried to misdirect this letter to make himself hard to find through the misuse of a private IP. eMailTrackerPro and VisualRoute were donated to Fraud-Aid.com by G2 - specialists in international financial asset recovery and due diligence. |
