Di recente stanno pervenendo all'Associazione varie mail con le quali vengono proposte le più assurde e dubbie riichieste.
Questi tentativi di truffa si ripetono quotidianamente e sono caratterizzate da finalità diverse perseguite dagli autori, quali il furto di dati personali, l'utilizzo di rapporti bancari altrui, il furto nei conti corrente dei destinatari.
Di seguito vi proponiamo la mail scam con la quale tale James Gasso ha chiesto a noi, proprio a noi, di "prestare" il nostro nome e il nostro conto corrente per fare transitare una somma di "soli" 8.3 milioni di dollari americani attraverso la Barclays Bank di Londra.
Insomma siamo stati fortunati ad essere stati "scelti" dal famoso James Gasso, uno dei principali manager nel ramo assicurativo di Barclays, non credete?
E' evidente il fine truffaldino di questa mail, ma a volte conviene riaffermarlo ed evidenziarlo per avvertire coloro che possono trovarsi nella medesima situazione a fare estrema attenzione a questi tentativi di truffa.
"Attention,
I am James Gasso Principal Assurance manager for the Barclays
Bank London UK. I am getting in touch with you regarding the estate of Mr Alfred
Brown and an investment placed under our banks management for 7 years.
I
would respectfully request that you keep the contents of this mail confidential
and respect the integrity of the information you come by as a result of this
mail.
In 2000, the subject matter; came to our bank to engage in business
discussions with our private banking division. He informed us that he had a
financial portfolio of 8.3million United States dollars, which he wished to have
us invest on his behalf.
Based on my advice, we spun the money around various
opportunities and made attractive margins for our first months of operation, the
accrued profit and interest stood at this point at over 10 million United States
Dollars. In mid 2002, he instructed that the principal sum ($8.3M) be liquidated
because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Hong
Kong and China. We got in touch with a specialist bank in London, who agreed to
receive this money for a fee and make cash available to Alfred. However the
other got in touch with us last year that this money has not been claimed. On
further enquiries we found out that Alfred was involved in an accident in
Mainland China, which means he died intestate. He has no next of kin and this is
the reason I am writing you.
What I propose is that since I have exclusive
access to his file, you will be made the beneficiary of these funds. My bank
will contact you informing you that money has been willed to you. On
verification, which will be the details I make available to my bank, my bank
will instruct the other bank to make payments to you. You do not have to have
known him. I know this might be a bit heavy for you but please trust me on this.
For all your troubles I propose that we split the money in half. In the banking
this happens every time.
Nobody is getting hurt; this is a lifetime
opportunity for us. I hold the KEY to these funds, and as a British National we
see so much cash and funds being re-assigned daily. I would want us to keep
communication for now strictly by the above email address, I will give you my
mobile telephone number when i get your reply.
Please, again, note I am a
family man; I have a wife and children. I send you this mail not without a
measure of fear as to the consequences, but I know within me that nothing
ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a
platter of gold. This is the one truth I have learned from my private banking
clients. Do not betray my confidence. If we can be of one accord, we should act
swiftly on this. Please get back to me immediately via the email.
Yours faithfully,
James Gasso"
