5th August 2022 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 5th August 2022, telephone number +17274160022 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be Alex H Ferguson using email address mcminnonm@gmail.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 Unpaid Beneficiary,

This is to inform you that in the course of my investigation as
director of payment verification / implementation committee I came
across your name as unpaid fund beneficiary in the record of the
central bank of IMF, and other banks that are suppose to get your
funds released to you. My committee was set up by the payment
reconciliation committee to verify and scrutinize all outstanding
debts owed to our foreign beneficiaries in accordance to the
information received from the United States government and other
countries over unpaid huge debts owed to Foreigners.

Having seen your file and my further questioning to the officials of
the central BANK, and ministry of finance as to why your
payment is still pending reveals the rot and corruption in the
system.The bank officials told me that the reason why you haven't
received your payment is due to your inability to pay for the required
charges for transfer of funds to your account. When I asked them why
they didn't deduct the said charges from your principal sum, I was
given the flimsy excuse that you never authorized them to do so. When
I put the question across to them if they ever advised you that such
charges could be deducted from your principal fund,the answer I got
was no. Now, if you do not tell this beneficiary that such charges
could be deducted from his or her principal fund, how will he or she
know that such options are available for such beneficiaries.

From my investigation I discovered that these bank officials
deliberately refused to let the charges be deducted from your
principal fund because they want your fund to remain trapped in the
bank, while they continue to extort money from beneficiaries under
some flimsy excuse. You do not need to pay any money to any official,
all you are required to do is swear to an affidavit at the federal
high court of IMF, authorizing the bank to deduct all charges from
your principal fund and transfer the balance of funds after deduction
to your bank account. If you have spent any money in the past in your
quest for payment, kindly let me know so that I can follow this up.
You can reach me on my phone or email for directive on how you can get
the deduction done as soon as possible and get your payment also.

Regards,
Mr. Alex H Ferguson
Chief Auditor
