Scammer from Ghana & International Commercial Bank

Postby Coyote Cliffs » Wed Feb 20, 2008 7:24 pm

This email came to me, I researched the names and businesses and it smacks of scammers. There were no blacklisted emails or names from this, but, when I searched the name of Samson Asamoah, I came across a similar scam. The first email is as follows:

This message might meet you in utmost surprise however it's just my urgent need for a foreign partner that made me contact you for this transaction. I got your contact during my search for a reliable, trust worthy and honest person to introduce this transfer project with. My name is Mr. Ben Kwaku; I am the manager of the International Commercial Bank Ghana , First Light Branch Accra .

I seek your co-operation in transferring the left over funds US$20.5M of one of my bank deceased client DR. GEORGE BRUMLEY who died in the charter plane which crashed in the Kenyan city of Sumburu along with his family on 21st July, 2003. You can confirm the genuine of the deceased death by clicking on this website: http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/africa/07 ... index.html

I am inviting you for a business deal because as an officer of the bank, I cannot be directly connected to this money thus I am impelled to request for your assistance as a foreigner to receive this money into your bank account. I intend to part 30% of this fund to you while 70% shall be for me. I do need to stress that there are practically no risk involved in this.

It is going to be a bank-to-bank transfer to your nominated bank account anywhere you feel safer. All I need from you is to stand as the original depositor of this fund.

I will appreciate your timely response, thank you.

Sincerely,
Ben Kwaku.

I have subsequent emails if anyone is interested. People can contact me at neal@ziascapes.com I will make this information known to other authorities.

...of course its a scam.
Whats the scammer's email address?
The cops aren't apt to foam at the mouth over that one as it preys on people's stupidity.
An investigation is unlikely.
