Letter Source: This letter did not originate anywhere in Asia. It originated in the +0000 Time Zone, which covers several Nigerian scammer hotspots: the UK, Ghana, Togo, and Burkina Faso. The last 3 neighbor Nigeria. The phone numbers at the bottom of the email may or may not be valid. Fone Finder (http://www.fonefinder.net) seems to have a tummy ache today, so no information is available. The country code for Japan is 81, but the fax number listed belongs to Hong Kong. The email listed in the From/To section an Italian email server, whereas the one listed at the bottom of the letter is an email server located in India. The different phone numbers, emails addresses, and letter source is the absolute mark of a scammer. Please remember that the scammer may be located anywhere in the world with many tools at his fingertips: laptops, satellite communications for Internet hookup, cell phones, roaming, phone forwarding, and the ability to sign-up to just about any service online instead of in person. Remember: the only way one can process payments for a company is to open a bank account in that company's name and deposit the checks there. To open such an account, one must have the company's documents allowing such action, and the signature card must be signed by a company officer, NOT YOU. All the checks must be made out to the company, and ONLY to the company. To receive checks made out to you for the company's services or products is called Diversion of Funds, is a criminal act, and is also subject to charges of Money Laundering and Theft. ____________________________________________________ Find out where emails are REALLY coming from. |
