E-Mail Scammers Ask Your Friends for Money
By David F. Gallagher

Tags: crime, phishing, spam

Nigeria continues to develop and export the world’s most innovative Internet scams. In one bizarre variation that seems to have ramped up in recent months, the scammers are taking a page from Facebook and leveraging the power of social connections.

Here’s how it works: The scammer somehow breaks into a victim’s Web-based e-mail account. He then impersonates the victim and sends an emergency plea for help to everyone in the account’s address book, asking them to wire money to Nigeria. The e-mail includes some variation on a story about getting mugged or losing a wallet while on a trip to Nigeria.

This happened recently to Drew Biondo of Port Jefferson, N.Y. He said he was at home early one morning when his wife alerted him to an e-mail she had received from his Yahoo address about his Nigerian money troubles. He scrambled to try to regain control over his account, but trying to find a phone number for an actual human at Yahoo was “ridiculously difficult,” he said.

Mr. Biondo, a public relations executive, used the Yahoo account for work e-mail and had about 600 people in his contact list, many of them journalists. He said he soon experienced “an influx of phone calls from every reporter I’ve ever spoken to,” including some he had not heard from in years. “I credit this Nigerian scammer with one thing: he made me feel good inside because these people cared enough to drop me a phone call.”

Yahoo asked Mr. Biondo for various proofs of his identity, including the long-forgotten answer to a security question he had set up ten years earlier. Two and a half days after it all began, he successfully logged into his account and sent out a mass mailing: “The long Nigerian nightmare is over.”

Other people who have been victims of this scam admit that they gave up their e-mail password in response to one of those bogus phishing messages that ask recipients to “verify your information.” But Mr. Biondo said he didn’t fall for one of those ploys, and he still has no idea how his account was compromised. No viruses turned up on his computer.

The brilliance of the scheme is that while the story in the e-mail might strain credulity, people are obviously far more willing to trust a friend than the supposed widow of a former dictator. While none of Mr. Biondo’s contacts fell for the ruse, some people somewhere must be sending money, because the scam is spreading. A Web search indicates that plenty of people have had their accounts hijacked, including:

A monsignor in the Falkland Islands ( “…the person who would benefit from this scam needs to be stopped before Monsignor loses his good reputation.”) A journalist in Saudi Arabia ( “Telephone calls to the Nigerian Consulate in Jeddah to report the crime were met with disinterest…”) The former editor in chief of the Malaysian National News Agency ( “I fear my name will be tarnished as though I’m seeking assistance and so on whereas I had never done so and it is a lie.”) A Connecticut woman who actually does work in Africa ( “I hope nobody did send her money. I was close.”) A doctor in India whose contacts need some cybersavvy ( “My friend tells me of a mail like that he received and many of them even sent in money that has been pocketed by the fraudster.”) A woman in Milwaukee who doesn’t know where Nigeria is ( “Szymborski said she e-mailed Yahoo about a dozen times but didn’t hear back.”) And even a fellow Nigerian ( “Na wao. Since it’s becoming increasingly difficult daily to achieve international scams from Nigeria, these bad boys now target their own brothers.”) Mr. Biondo’s experience in particular demonstrates one of the problems with moving more computing tasks from the desktop to the Web, as Google and others would like us to do. In many cases, just one little password is keeping bad people away from your precious data. And if you are relying on free services from a company like Google or Yahoo, your chances of getting prompt and personalized customer service in a time of crisis are low.
Mr. Biondo’s new solution to this problem is to spread the risk: “I have a Gmail account which forwards to my Yahoo account, so if one goes I have a backup.”

Here is the full text of the e-mail sent from Mr. Biondo’s account:

IMMEDIATE CONTRACT PAYMENT ON CONTRACT # :MAV/NNPC/FGN/MIN/009

Based on our investigation department, that is why we wish to warn you against some Miscreants, Hoodlums and Touts who go about scamming innocent people by claiming to be who they are not and thereby tarnishing the image of this wonderful country Nigeria.

As a matter of fact, the Federal Government of Nigeria have stopped further payment through bank to bank transfer due to contractors numerous petitions to United Nations against Nigeria on wrong payment and diversion of contract funds to different accounts. AGAIN, ANY MAIL OR CALL WITHOUT THE CODE ABOVE, DO NOT RESPOND FOR SECURITY REASNS.

Therefore, We have this 7th Day of July, 2008 received a payment credit instruction from the federal Government of Nigeria to credit your account with your full contract funds from the Nigerian reserve account with our bank.

This is to notify you that your funds have been programmed for immediate release into your nominated bank account but we can not transfer this fund direct to your nominated bank account, because we are having a little problem with International Monetary Fund (IMF) so our method of payment is by Diplomatic Courier Service. Be informed that every arrangement regarding your cash payment through diplomatic services has been made, note that your funds have been packaged like a consignment.Note that the Diplomatic Agency has to move down to your Country in order to deliver the Consignment to your doorstep.

You have to help the diplomats to get (yellow Tag Paper) so that the customs and immigration will not stop them at the Airport, for security reason you are advised to follow the rules and regulation of the diplomats for easy collection of the consignment, you have to welcome the diplomatic agents, to enable them deliver the Consignment to you immediately.

Be also informed that as soon as the diplomats obtain the above name
certificate they will deliver the Consignment to your door step.

This consignment have been registered with FBI and there is no course for alarm because this is the best way that you can get your fund without any problem due to the numerous scam activities on the internet, it is not safe to send one's bank information anymore, so that is why we choose this method to effect your contract payment through a consignment and you are advised to provide all information so that there will not be any further delay in your payment.

We are very sorry for the delays in your contract payment, please bear with us.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I hope you give due consideration to this letter before you discard it as a hoax.
My name is Mr OK ABRAHAM, Account Officer/Personal Banker with one of the banks in United Kingdom On 8 November 2001, a diplomat from Africa made a numbered
time (Fixed) Deposit, valued at for twelve calendar months in my Bank branch. Upon maturity, routine notifications were sent to his forwarding address with
no reply. This was repeated a month later as a reminder, finally I discovered that the diplomat was General Robert Guei, and was killed together with all his
family members in a political uprising in his country on September 19th 2002, http://www.guardian.co.uk/obituaries/story/0,3604,796127,00.html
On further investigation, I discovered that the General did not declare any next of kin or relation in all his official documents at time the deposit was
made at the bank. The total sum is Ј8.7M British Pounds, and to this day no one has ever come forward to claim it.

Recently, we received a circular from The Commission for Unclaimed Assets requesting the return of all unclaimed funds to them. This is in accordance with
the Federal banking Laws and constitution, and the money will be reverted to the ownership of the Government if nobody applies as the next of Kin to claim
the funds (http://observer.guardian.co.uk/business/story/0,,2030931,00.html).

Consequently, I shall present you as a foreigner to stand in as the business partner to late General nominated by him as his next of kin, upon acceptance of
this proposal; I shall give you detailed information on how this deal would be carried out. We shall employ the services of a solicitor for the drafting of
the letter of probate in your favour, and to obtain all other relevant papers in your name for the necessary documentation for payment approval in my bank.
The money will be shared in the ratio of: sixty-five percent for me, thirty percent for you and five percent for any arising contingencies during the course
of this transaction.I guarantee that this will be executed under legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of the law, as I will use my
position in the bank to facilitate the approvals and guarantee the successful execution of this transaction. Please be informed that your utmost
confidentiality is required. If this interests you, please reply me immediately, and please include your private telephone number for voice contact and fax
number and e-mail address so I can provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction.

Your urgent reply will be appreciated.
Yours truly,
OK. ABRAHAM.

Guangzhou Branch
China,

I am Dr David K M Fung I work with Wing Hang Bank Guangzhou Branch China.I have an obscured business proposal for you Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client political party official A Middle East Oil merchant Mr Kunji Moidu made a numbered fixed deposit value at Eighteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United State dollars in my branch. Upon maturity several notices where sent to him, even during the war, which began in 2003. Again, after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later found out that Mr Kunji Moidu, his wife and only daughter had been killed during the war in a gun fire that hit there home were his personal oil well his



After further investigation it was also discovered that Mr Kunji Moidu did not declare any next of kin in his official papers, including the paper work of his bank deposit. He also confided in me, the last time he was at my office, that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Eighteen Million Five Hundred Thousand United State dollars is still lying in my bank, and no one will know of it. What bothers me most is that according to the laws of my country, at the expiration of 6 years and 6 months the funds will revert to the ownership of the China Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to Mr Kunji Moidu so that you will be able to receive his funds.

I want you to know that I have everything carefully planned. I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary documents that will back you up as the next of kin to Mr Kunji Moidu. All that is required from you at this stage is to provide me with your Full Names and Address so that the attorney can commence his job. I will use my position to influence the move of the funds. After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will file for claims on your behalf, and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favor, for the move of the funds to an account that will be provided by you.

There is no risk involved at all in this matter, as we are going to adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents. Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. Should you be interested please send me your full names, private phone/fax and current residential address and finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this operation. I prefer you to reach me with the below.
