It seems like the pattern of experience I have relating to my yahoo email account.
these guys are indian origin from UK. they look for patterns of email sent and the time frame.
they hack the email account and ask you to put the name of (ur friend) in ur messenger.
then they IM you. poor u think it is ur long lost friend or ur current friend. they get all info
and get you to send money...they have all kinds of links including western union.
I got hacked 2 times. 6 months ago i got a mail from my girlfriend asking for money that she lost all
her belongings in the airport in UK, needs to go home, immediately send $970. I contacted the real friend told me that her email is hacked...so...BEWARE!!THEY R OUT THERE.....OFFSHORE SCAMS!!
UNFORTUNATELY NO ONE CAN HELP YOU.... YOU MUST BE VIGILANT AND A USER OF COMPUTERS KNOWS WHAT UR DOING!!!!!!!! HELP URSELF...sorry..Do Not Trust anybody online..PERIOD!!!!
I just got hit too. Found out that they were not a legitimate collector, and filed a dispute with my bank fraud department and they said I will have the money back in my account in 7-10 business days. Found out from the company that I owe money to that Binish is not working for them! The person I have been working with is Steve Hogan, and the guy in the payments department is Paul Pratt. They called me on a new number 508-683-0013. If you have already made payments, call them today! They asked that I not make a dispute with my bank, which I already did, and that I had contacted the local authorities that would be investigating. Good luck everyone!
