6th August 2018 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 6th August 2018, telephone number +16197326839 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be James Best using email address diplomatjamesbest@live.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.
Dear owner
I am Mr. James Best, Head Officer-in-Charge, Administrative Service
Inspection Agency Code: DFW – Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport
located in Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex area in the U.S. state of
Texas. During our investigation, I discovered an abandoned shipment
through a Diplomat from Africa Union , which was transferred from
London Heath-row international Airport to our facility in us America ,
and when scanned it revealed an undisclosed sum of money in 2 Metal
Trunk Boxes weighing approximately 110kg. The consignment was
abandoned because the Content was not properly declared by the
consignee as money rather it was declared as personal
effect/classified document to either avoid diversion by the Shipping
Agent or confiscation by the relevant authorities.
The diplomat’s inability to pay for Non Inspection fees $800 US
DOLLARS OR to present Non inspection Certificate Document to back up
the consignment are the reason why the consignment is delayed and
abandoned but the Non inspection Certificate can only be obtained from
metroplex area in the U.S. state of Texas. where the shipment was
tagged in a lower price .By my assessment,the boxes contains about
$2.5M They are still left in the airport storage facility till today.
The Consignments like I said are one metal trunk boxes weighing about
65kg each (Internal dimension: W61 x H156 x D73 (cm) effective
capacity: 680 L) Approximately.
It is now left for you to decide if you still need the consignment or
allow us repatriate it back to Africa (place of origin) as we were
instructed.
As I did say again, the shipper abandoned it and ran away, most
importantly because he gave a false declaration, he could not pay for
the yellow tag, he could not secure a valid non inspection
document(s), etc. I am ready to assist you in any way I can for you to
get back this packages provided you will also give me something out of
it (financial gratification). You can either come in person but their
most be an interrogation, or i will help you engage the services of a
secure shipping/delivery Company/agent that will provide the necessary
security that is required to deliver the package to your doorstep or
the destination of your choice. I need all the guarantee that I can
get from you before I can get involved in this project. i am rest
assured that these may or may not affect my job if care is not taking.
