27th March 2018 - Advance Fee Fraud Scam

On 27th March 2018, telephone number +27786836011 was reported as being used by scammers to pretend to be Benjamin Brown using email address bb-brown@consultant.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.
Good day,

I know that this will come to you as a surprise since we do not know each other before. For the purpose of introduction, I am Mr. Benjamin Brown, I served in the Libyan presidency on a bilateral defence commission and my status put me in a position of responsibility and authority liaising with the government of Libya and the ANC led government in South Africa.

I am interested in doing business with you as I am in possession of some Late Colonel Muammar Gaddafi funds in the amount of US$ 55, 000, 000 .00 (FIFTY FIVE MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS), which I wish to invest as a matter of urgency through you. http:/ /www.biznew s.com/undictated/2014/12/12/hunt-is-on-for-gad dafi-trillions-stashed-away-in-sa/

If you are conversant with public issues, Libya recently went through terrible strife/civil that was escalated by the death of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi in the NATO invasion of Libya. I was mandated as Head of Delegation to purchase arms/ ammunitions by the government of Libya (Gaddafi Government). http:/ /www.nat o.int/cps/en/nato live/topics_71652.htm

I had already finished negotiations and was in South Africa for the arms/ ammunitions negotiations when I learnt of the death of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi. On the death of Colonel Gaddafi, I stopped all negotiations and the funds were moved to a private security company here in South Africa where it is secured as I search for a foreign partner to help move and invest the funds.

Presently, the existence of this money is unknown to anybody, and is backed up by a Certificate of Clean fund issued as investment funds by the South African Government, absolving the money from drugs or money laundering activities. I find it necessary to invest this money offshore in viable business ventures through your company or your personal guidance and assistance. I have worked on the whole arrangement and only expect your favourable response to put the machinery into motion that will further our mutual personal and business relationship.

You may contact me on my private number or email address provided below so I can give you details of the whole arrangement I have made which are absolutely risk free, smooth and will ensure no delays once we work hand in hand with each other.

I await your esteemed response while counting on your sense of confidentiality, as it is my desire for this to be done as directly as possible. I will offer you 20% of the total money and the remaining 80% will be for my investment in your country.

This deal is strictly confidential and I would appreciate it if we keep it that way. If in any case you are not interested then do not bother responding, just ignore the conversation.

Thanks for your time.

Regards,
Mr. Benjamin Brown
