This type of scam seems to have resurfaced this past week. I wonder if the bottom feeders are sharing ideas? This is no more than the usual money gram scam, usually involving walmarts money grams. This type of scheme is well explained in the following post.

I just had to post this one! How Mr. Jason Clark got my private email address “undisclosed-recipients” is beyond me. Never the less, he really wants to lend me money. Ghee he must be a wealthy Nigerian with an office and maybe even a cellphone ( Ya know so us little people can reach him at anytime to get a loan). (more…)

The bottom feeders have presented us with a new lottery scam. They are hoping to sucker us into providing personal information and then proceed to ask for advanced fees to cover the odd costs required to claim your “winnings”.
Just another low life attempt to steal form the uninformed. Don’t fall for this one folks!
The following schemes are explained in the Identifying Scams section.

Well, well Mr. Omar; just what is your scheme this time. Perhaps you want me to deposit a few bogus checks in my account and forward you a few bucks so you can get out of Iraq? (more…)

Very legit loan operation? Head office at Hotmail.com? Give me a break! May all readers that have borrowed my “undisclosed-recipients” Email address please take notice, scam, yes scam it is. (more…)

It seems that Mrs. Juanita Bettger ( or so they say ) is still polluting our e-mail with garbage. Since this Blog has began, I have never received so many visits concerning any scam as I have for this one! Therefore; myself and others have decided to take up the offer. Perhaps, Mrs Bettger needs a few hundred reps in my area?
If they could get the e-mail address straight then all us “undisclosed-recipients” are going to bombard the mail box. Before you know it shares in Max Response Software will be going through the roof and hey we can all get our rear ends bronzed in Nigeria with our riches!
This is a win, win situation; Max Response gets the bucks and I get a sun tan. It just doesn’t get any better!
