12th November 2020 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 12th November 2020, telephone number +2348087977937 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be Muhammadu Buhari using email address buharimohammedu77@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 Approved/Authentic Beneficiary,

I hope you had a good weekend.

I am not supposed to communicate with you personally but due to my
commitment and consideration of the appeals of the beneficiaries for
me to take it upon myself and settle their payment.

I personally write to let you know that I have approved that your
inheritance funds will be paid to you directly from our Central Bank
under my personal supervision.

My approval is as a result of petitions/appeals from some of the
unpaid beneficiaries and important World Leaders(International
Community) that I should intervene on the payment of the
beneficiaries and see that they receive their payment and end their
frustration/misery.

I have now taken it upon myself to pay all beneficiaries including your payment.

My intervention has led to the payment of most of the beneficiaries
because I am personally handling their payment directly from the
Central Bank of Nigeria.

Your inheritance funds originated from here and you will be paid
directly from our Central Bank which is our apex bank.

I have instructed the Governor Central Central Bank of Nigeria to
without delay process your payment and duly make the remittance of
your funds valued US$15,000.000(Fifteen Million United States Dollars)
into your account.

Your transaction has been entered in the Central Bank of Nigeria Funds
Remittance System.

This means your funds transfer has been processed and remittance ready.

The only thing that is required for your funds transfer is to obtain
an International Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate.

The International Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate that will be
issued on your behalf allows/authorizes your funds to be transferred
to you and as well serves as anti money laundering and also made you
the authentic beneficiary of the US$15 Million and no Authority in the
World or your Country will question your funds once it is transferred
into your account and you start making use of your funds.

The issuance fee for the International Funds Transfer Clearance
Certificate is US$500.

You are advised to pay the US$500 and the International Funds Transfer
Clearance Certificate will be issued on your behalf and your funds
valued US$15 Million will immediately be transferred into your
account.

The US$500 can not be deducted from your principal sum of US$15
Million because of the existing law which states that the full amount
of the beneficiary's funds is what will be transferred to him

You are therefore advised to pay the US$500 for the International
Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate for it to be issued on your
behalf and for your funds valued US$15 to be transferred into your
account.

You should send the US$500 through Western Union or Money Gram with
the below information of our Revenue officer:

FIRST NAME: RICHARD
MIDDLE NAME: UBONG
LAST NAME: UMANA
LOCATION: LAGOS NIGERIA

You should use exactly the names as stated above to send the money
through Money Gram or Western Union

You should send me the copy of the Money Gram or Western Union
transfer slip once you send it so that the Revenue officer will pick
it up and the International Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate will
be obtained on your behalf and our Central Bank will immediately
transfer your US$15 Million into your account.

The copy of the International Funds Transfer Clearance Certificate
will be sent to you once it is obtained as well as the copy of the
wire slip upon your funds remittance.

You are also required to re-confirm your banking information for the remittance.

YOU CAN AS WELL RECEIVE YOUR FUNDS IN THE MEANS OF ATM OR CASHIER'S
CHECK upon the payment of the US$500 for the International Funds
Transfer Clearance Certificate

I await your prompt compliance.

Regards,

His Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari, GCON GCFR, President,
Federal Republic of Nigeria
