23rd March 2019 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 23rd March 2019, telephone number +971588041841 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be Khalid Gaffar working for Emirates Savings Bank using email address khalid.gaffar@emsbonline.com and fake website 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.
Dear XXX

I have to thank you very much indeed for showing some great responsibility and trust, your interest has proved to be genuine and I must also let you know that having confirmed your genuine commitment. No, you do not have to go to UAE for this transaction, everything will be done online if that is what you wish.

I feel much more comfortable doing this business with you, even though we have not had a verbal conversation. Please my friend; do not let me down in this important transaction and all the trust I am giving you as a foreign partner, a friend, and someone I may now consider to be a brother. I would indeed be overwhelmed meeting you in person, perhaps there are lots of other transactions we could have together apart from this. I have been in the financial sector for many years though I try as much as possible to diversify my interests by exploring new frontiers.

After I saw your information, I immediately sent a copy to the attorney /advocate who will put together the perfected paperwork to be sent to my bank for the immediate release and transfer of the funds to you. This should take some days depending on how fast you can open the new account.

I am now sending you the foreign bank detail in the United Arab Emirates so you can contact them and make inquiries. 0nce the funds are released, they will be transferred straight into your new account and the transfer will not attract international monetary bodies, as the transfer will be regarded as an in-house (same telex type with my bank.) If you also remember I told you in my previous email that when the funds have been transferred into the new online account which you shall open, and after you have confirmed that the funds are credited in your account, you shall then begin disbursement of the funds into your personal accounts.

I have already made some inquiries on who to contact directly to open an account as an international customer, please contact the bank with the information below to speed up your account opening. Let them know you want an account that you can operate online and you do not have time to travel over to open the new account so we want everything done via email and telephone. Tell them that a bank in Hong Kong gave you this contact information.

I have to let you know that Emirates Savings Bank is a Credit Intermediary Bank which operates an online banking system in a small scale and renders banking services to individuals and companies involved in international operations, they also work in affiliate with other banks in Europe, Asia, and America. One of the major reasons we are using Emirates Savings Bank is because this bank happens to be of the same telex type with the bank I work, which means that any transfer between them and my bank would always be seen as an in-house transfer. This definitely avoids the attention of certain international financial bodies that have strict monetary policies. The authorities would simply regard such transfer to be a Bank to Bank affair and it would not raise eyebrows or trigger any red flags. It was absolutely necessary to take certain precautions on transactions like this, I have to assure you that our interests are protected in this transaction. Being a professional banker for many years I expect you to heed my advice for the success of this transaction and the subsequent disbursement of the funds.

I shall await an update from you shortly about the opening of your new online account, please make contact with Emirates Savings Bank and apply for the account because I would like the account opening to be fast; you can contact the bank via Mr. Khalid Gaffar on this email address ( khalid.gaffar@emsbonline.com)

I know that the benefit of this transaction is a lifetime fortune for both of us and our families so I expect you to handle this transaction as a major priority, please always remember to keep this transaction in a very low profile. May God bless you for your positive resolve to affect our lives.
