18th April 2019 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 18th April 2019, telephone number +2348162544587 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be Jerry Farnandes using email address jerryfanandez1@email.com as part of an Advance Fee Fraud Scam.

In Advance Fee Fraud Scams, the scammer will offer you something of high value (a large sum of money or gold for example) and all you have to do is pay a "small" fee. What the scammer is offering you does not actually exist and the scammer will come up with fee after fee that needs to be paid by the victims, until he either runs out of money or realises that he has been scammed. The scammer will often pretend to be real people or companies, use fake websites and introduce various characters, all with the aim of convincing the victim that what is being offered to him is real.

Here is the email that the scammer sent to his victims.
Attention,

My residential address is as follows.14852 Rock Landing Court Centreville Virginia 20121 United States and my telephone number is +1 (717) 535 2269 you can call me or send me a text message and i will respond back to you.I am one of those that fall victims to scammers in Africa two years ago. I have lost over US$100,000.00 for the past years while in the USA. I was trying to get my payment all to no avail. And they always stopped my funds with one reason or the order. So I decided to travel with my Son to WASHINGTON D.C with all documents, there the (FBI) was amazed and contacted the Nigeria embassy and Benin in the USA. After some hours in that office, I was asked by the FBI officer to come back the next week.

When I did the FBI officer gave me the contact of one Mr. Jerry Farnandes who is a representative of the (FBI) and a member of the compensation award committee, currently in Nigeria and Benin. And when I contacted him he explained everything to me. He said whoever is contacting us through emails are fake that I should fly down to Nigeria to see things for myself which I did and he took me to the paying bank for the claim of my compensation payment.

This was paid to me successfully. Right now I am the happiest man on earth because I have finally received my compensation funds of US$2,500,000.00.Moreover, Mr. Jerry Farnandes showed me the full Information of those that are yet to receive their compensation funds and this was how I came across only your email address and your full name.The only Money I paid after I meet with Mr.Jerry Farnandez was just $50.00 (Fifty Dollars) for the ownership paper works.

So I am advising you to contact Mr. Jerry Farnandez through his email address (jerryfanandez1@email.com) for your own money including the money you lost or you can as well call him on his direct telephone number (+234-81 625 44 587) please take it very serious so that he will tell you how you can send the $50 to him and you are advice to purchase iTunes card Or Google Play gift Card.of $50 only and send the pictures so that i will redeem it to cash

Please contact him and send your telephone number and your residential address to him so that he can release your own money to you.

Thank you & God bless you.

Mr. Ben Andrew.
