20th January 2023 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 20th January 2023, telephone number +18056198172 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be John T. Maxwell using email address di.tmaxwell@outlook.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.
Attn:

I’m diplomat John T. Maxwell from DHL EXPRESS; I just to inform you
the sender of the package ATM CARD about my successful arrival at
International Airport with your package/fund worth $10.5,000,000.00
which I have been instructed by FBI to be delivered to your Address.

The Airport authority demanded for all the legal back up papers to
prove to them that the fund is no way related with drug nor fraud
money, I have presented the papers I handed to them and they are very
much pleased with the paper’s I presented, but the only thing that is
still keeping me here is the airport delivery (Yellow Tag) which is
not placed on the package, one of the Airport Authority has advise
that we get the delivery Yellow tag so that I can exit the airport
immediately and make my delivery successful to you.

I try to reason with them and they stated the delivery Yellow tag will
cost us just $110 Dollars only to get the TAG placed on the package as
that tag will enable me get to your house successfully without any
interference, they scanned the fund and found out that the fund is 100
% spend able and accepted by any bank in the whole world.

Please try and reach me as soon as you get this mail as I can not
afford to spend more time here due to other delivery I have to take
care of in Bangkok. I will provide you the papers backing the card I
have more vital paper with me but I can only present you the hard copy
when I reach your house as that it’s the diplomatic rules, such as
authorization to deliver.

Direct the tag fee to our Head Office DHL Or FBI OFFICE DEPARTMENT as
they will get it there for you and they are entitled to receive and
make any payment to foreign countries authority.I am sending you this
message through airport cyber cafe and try not delay my delivering to
another country.

Best Regards,

Diplomat John T.Maxwell
