Dont sale to NIGERIA

[anindya2004_in1]

The following scam targets eBay sellers, who may be tricked into shipping goods to Lagos, Nigeria without any payment. First the criminal contacts the seller (usually via a new eBay account, often registered in Singapore) and offers a high price for an item on sale. He or she will request that the item to be shipped to Nigeria via a parcel service (FEDEX, DHL, UPS, EMS) and explains that the buyer will pay via "Western Union Auction Payment (Bidpay)". This is a legitimate company, but that doesn't matter in this case, because it's not actually involved.

The way the scam works is that the seller is told the money will only be released by Western Union / Bidpay when the buyer supplies a tracking number, i.e. when he has already shipped the parcel. To get the seller to ship the parcel, the criminal himself poses as Western Union, sending an email from a free webmail service to the victim using an email address which mentions Western Union or BidPay, for example "westernunionmoneyorderpayment@banknotes.com", assuring the seller that Western Union has received payment from the buyer and will release it as soon as he submits the tracking number as proof of shipping. A seller believing this message to be sent from Western Union will lose his merchandise and the shipping costs.

If you receive a fake Western Union / BidPay message, look at the email address this was sent from (for example, westernunionmoneyorderpayment@banknotes.com or onlinebid-pay@accountant.com). If you take this address and replace the left part with the word abuse you get the email address to which to forward such scam emails (for example, abuse@banknotes.com or abuse@accountant.com). Ask the email service to suspend the email account used for this fraud.

See below for examples of such scams. If you have received any such offers, send us copies. Please mark the subject line:

I was a target for this scam yesterday, but instead of Bidpay, the potential buyer impersonated the United States Postal Office (USPS). I did not send the item as he requested because I found out it was a scam. Here is a copy of the faked USPS I received:

Dear [removed for privacy],
Congratulations! The order placed by the buyer of your item : Judit Mason to have a United States Postal Service branded Money OrderSM $350 .00 (USD) sent to you as payment for the item : [removed for privacy].

The order has been APPROVED, you CAN NOW ship the merchandise to the buyer's shipping address. You are expected to make the shipment within 24 hours of recieving this Payment Confirmation Notification and get to our Costumer/Technical Dept. with the tracking number for Shippment Verification.

This ensures speedy verification of shipment as well as prompt dispatch of Money OrderSM. Send shippment tracking details to : askquestion@post.com

Hold the money order up to the light and look for the following security features:
Ben Franklin images (watermarks) repeated on the left side (top to bottom).
A dark security thread running (top to bottom) to the right of the Franklin watermark, with the tiny letters “USPS” facing backward and forward

Also below is the sample of the money order that will be delivered to you after we have receive the shipment tracking number from you.

ATTENTION ALL THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN SCAMMED BY NIGERIANS:
I would greatly appreciate any information (e-mail's etc) that you have in connection with the criminal organization(s) in Lagos, Nigeria who have been using this Con of getting you to send goods before receiving legitimate payment. our loses seperately aren't serious crimes, but the lengths that these people have gone to suggests it is a huge operation; and that is a serious crime which would warrant a more serious investigation. Please send me any information you have as it could be useful. You may have lost some material goods(which you probably won't get back), but perhaps your help could lead to the people resonsible being brought to justice. thanks for your time.

[cammajamma77]

I was a victim of this scam....almost. The buyer offered me more than my asking price (on craigslist). this is a red flag of a scam. He sent the fake USPS emails and they all looked legit so i sent my package after they "approved" his payment. Then i sent "USPS" the tracking number. The ironic thing is... the same scammer tried to buy one of my other items on craigslist for more than i offered. I could tell it was the same guy because how he spoke. He used the word "kindly" alot. He also said he was buying it for a frend in Nigeria and wanted to purchase it immediatly and would pay for shipping with his FedEx account (this was the same for both items). so when i read the second email i knew it was the same guy and i looked up "USPS scam" and found out this kinda thing was happening, immediately called FedEx and had them stop the shipment and send it back to me. Hopefully he hasn't gotten it yet. Another thing that threw up a red flag was that the "official USPS" emails used the word "kindly". I figured it was used in other parts of the world more than where i live. Then i figured it was the same guy. I can understand how this can happen to people... and it sucks. Don't buy from people in NG. or maybe just Lagos. And if they offer you too much its probably too good to be true..

I got a scam attempt like this yesterday, through an ad listing via craigslist. My item was listed for $100.00, this person offered my $200.00 and wanted me to accept a US "money order" only after I shipped the item.

PLEASE, REPLY TO THIS EMAIL. IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS :








So, then I get another email from the buyer:







Hello,
Thanks for the reply,below is my daugthers address so i want you print it out and paste it on the package together with my fedex account number,so you won't be bill for the shippment and now in new york,so i registerd with fedex here in new york,so make sure the address and account number is well pasted on the package before dropping it off.
A shippment tracking number will be giving to you by the fedex agent incharge of the shippment,so send it to me once you receive it.
SHIPPING ADDRESS.
Aliu.Lisa.Shilly
No 8 foursquare street.
Amosun Vill.Ipaja.

FEDEX ACCOUNT NUMBER.

DECLARED VALUE.
$80
sO PRINT OUT THIS INFORMATION INCLUDING THE DELCARED VALUED PASTE IT ON THE PACKAGE BEFORE DROPPING IT OFF AT FEDEX LOCATION,AND MAKE SURE YOU ASK FOR THE SHIPPMENT TRACKING NUMBER FROM THE FEDEX AGENT.






So, two things with the last email. The seller indicates they are in New York, and previously indicated they were in Maryland. Also, they want the item shipped to Nigeria. Why did that not surprise me?





Anyway, beware of this stuff. They are semi-smart and could snag the unsuspecting seller.





Best,
p
