Hmm, I may find that the transfer can only be picked up at Oceanic Bank HQ:

Quote:

Please be informed that http://www.oceanicbanknigeria.com remains the only authentic and genuine website of Oceanic Bank International Plc whose registered Head office is at Herbert Macaulay Way, Wuse Zone 6 Abuja, FCT-Abuja, Nigeria

I'll see if I can get a phone number, HJF, you can be the bank disservice line and tell him his payment had to be pulled out of the system as they are no longer made to Nigerian branches other than Head Office, dur to those pesky scammers.

I'll email on Monday, when I'm back from the haggis shoot. Meanwhile, I think I'm going to be sick.....

I understand that there has been a problem with the above transfer,
representatives of our client, Lord N0rris of C0le have asked us to investigate.

Due to rampant fraud and corruption in Nigeria, all high value
payments received are suspended automatically rather than being distributed to outlying banks.
Therefore this transfer can ONLY be picked up from the bank HQ, which is as follows:

Oceanic Bank International Plc
Registered Head office: Herbert Macaulay Way, Wuse Zone 6 Abuja,
FCT-Abuja, Nigeria

If you would like me to call you over this matter, please supply a
telephone number.

Lad is in Lagos, a fair trek from Abuja.

Much whining about his unclothed children this week, but
Lord N0rris has been away haggis shooting, and so ignoring him.

He won't give me a phone number, so HJF can't ring him. What started as a very long term wind up has definitely evolved into a safari attempt.

GOOD DAY GAYE,

I AM HIGHLY ESTEEMED MEETING YOU THROUGH MY FRIEND N0RRIS,AS HIS ACCOUNT OFFICER I SUGGEST YOU TELL HIM THAT I LIVE FOR SOUTH IN LAGOS NIGERIA.

NOW DO THEY EXPECT ME TO TRAVEL DOWN FAR NORTH CENTRAL F.C.T ABUJA TO RECIEVE THE MONEY,THE NATURE OF MY JOB (what, scamming?) WILL NOT PERMIT ME TO TRAVEL NOT EVEN FOR A DAY TILL THERE IS HOLIDAY.

AS HIS ACCOUNT OFFICER I WOULD LOVE YOU TO GET ACROSS TO HIM,STATING THAT HE SHOULD CALL BACK THE MONEY.

I WILL ALSO BE FORWARDING THE MAIL I RECIEVED FROM YOU TO HIM SO THAT HE WILL BE REST ASSURED THAT THE MONEY HAS NOT BEEN EATEN-UP AS I PUT IT.

THANKS AND BEST REGARDS.

Dear Yusuf,

I have been discussing this case with the bank in Abuja. I gather that
Lord N0rris is away shooting until the Christmas break, when he goes
away to Scotlandshire.

I am sorry, but once the funds have reached Nigeria, there is nothing
I can do to call them back. I don't know anything about the geography
of your country, but I'm sure whatever your job, �10,000 will be more
than adequate reward for your journey.

Best Wishes,

G4ye B4rr,

At least I know someone was reading this......

Basically, G4ye B4rr got Yusuf to go to the Oceanic Bank HQ in Abuja, where of course they denied all knowledge of his money. The good thing is that he still believes it.s all real, so no reason why he can't be sent back there.

GOOD DAY GAYE,

I WAS FORCED TO HAVE TO LEAVE LAGOS FOR ABUJA jump_4_joy

AFTER SENDING YOU THE LAST EMAIL I SENT TO YOU YESTERDAY.

AS YOU ADVICED I HAD TO TRAVEL TO ABUJA BY FLIGHT TO THE OCEANIC BANK HEADQUARTERS WITH THE PAYMENT INFORMATION AND ALSO THE ADDRESS,BUT I WAS DISAPPOINTED THAT THE OPERATION MANAGER TOLD ME THAT HE CAN NOT DEAL WITH ME SINCE THE MONEY IS NO MORE ON LINE AND THAT I MUST HAVE TO PROVIDE A TRANSACTION CODE THAT WILL AUTHORISE THEM TO RELEASE THE FUNDS TO ME.

I WAS TOLD TO PROVIDE A TRANSACTION CODE BEFORE THE MONEY CAN BE RELEASED TO ME,SO WHAT AM I TO DO,GAYE?,COS IMMEDIATELY I BOARDED ANOTHER FLIGHT BACK FROM ABUJA WITH DISAPPOINTMENT It's like 'From Russia With Love',DO I HAVE TO SUFFER ALL THIS BEFORE I RECIEVE MONEY THAT WAS SENT TO ME BY MY VERY GOOD FRIEND LORD NORRIS.

BETTER STILL AS I HAVE STATED YOU CAN INFORM THE BANK TO TRANSFER THE FUNDS DOWN TO LAGOS TO ANY OF THEIR OCEANIC BANK BRANCHES HERE IN LAGOS,AS I CANT AFFORD TO TRAVEL ALL OVER AGAIN TO ABUJA. Tough, cos that's where you're going!

WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR EFFORT,CALL ME +234-703-xxxxxxxx.

REGARDS,
YUSUF

Rinse and repeat...

Quote:

Dear Mr Adams,

I am sorry that you are frustrated by the banks in Nigeria, but from
here in the USA there is little that I can do - the money was sent
from the client in the UK to Nigeria, from there our work is done. I
don't see how I can recall money once it has been sent.

The only transaction code is the MTCN, did you give this to the manager?

If not the only thing I can think of is I send you a copy of the
original transfer document to take to the bank. Maybe you can get arrested for fraud if I do

G4ye B4rr

Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 4:21 pm

You know how I feel about Abuja. What a pity.

The thing that he needs to understand is that, it cannot be picked up in Nigeria at all. The WU transfer system is currently suspending transfers to Nigeria. He must go to Togo or Benin.

As Yusuf is desperate for a phone call, I have pm'd his number to HomerJFong to ring him as G4ye B4rr.

Taking Jojo's idea on board, possibly his money could be stuck at a certain bank in Makola market, Accra? Twisted Evil

I shall see how and if the call goes before I do anything.

Someone around here has a WU transfer slip that can only be picked up at Makola. I can find it and PM you with a nice modality, if you like.

Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 5:49 pm

Nice one. Sender is Lord N0rris of C0le, receiver is Yusuf Adams, amount is �10,000 Sterling.

You might want to PM it to me again - I got nothing. Might want to wait on the call though to see if he's willing to safari somewhere else.

Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 5:53 pm

Roy-

PM sent.

Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 6:05 pm

OK, I pm'd HJF, and will use the link from Jojo to send him a Westy slip.

Noone knows how his payment got sent to Accra, but as it's illegal to send money from Ghana to Nigeria (true), Yusuf will have to go and pick it up.

What he doesn't know is, this particular branch have a sense of humour overload when lads come in with our silly emails, and tend to call the police.

I AWAIT THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS

GOOD DAY G4YE,

WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU SOME QUESTIONS AND WOULD WANT YOU TO THINK ALONG WITH ME.

1.... IF YOU TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THE PAYMENT DETAILS SENT TO ME.

THE LOCATION STATED LAGOS,NIGERIA BECAUSE MY VERY GOOD FRIEND L0RD N0RRIS KNOWS MY KIND OF PERSON AND THAT AM A VERY BUSYMAN.

HE KNOWS I RESIDE IN LAGOS THAT WAS WHY HE DIRECTED THE PAYMENT TO LAGOS,SO WHY WILL THE BANK WANT ME TO COME OVER TO ABUJA,WHEN THE FUNDS CAN BE SENT TO ALL THE BRANCHES HERE IN LAGOS WITH THE NUMEROUS BRANCHES OCEANIC BANK HAS IN LAGOS.

YOU CAN ON BEHALF OF MY FRIEND L0RD N0RRIS GET ACROSS TO THE OCEANIC BANK TELLING THEM THAT THEY SHOULD TRANSFER IT TO ALL THEIR LAGOS BRANCH,THAT MAKES IT EASIER.

I HAVE BEEN TALKING TO SOME OF MY FRIENDS AND THEY SAID THAT ITS VERY WRONG TO TRANSFER A MONEY TO LAGOS,THEN ALL FOR YOU TO BE TOLD TO TARVEL TO ANOTHER STATE TO PICK UP THE MONEY,ITS VERY WRONG DONT YOU SEE? . Of course, that why we do what we do, its very wrong to scam old ladies too, yusuf.

WHEN I WENT TO ONE OF THE OCEANIC BANK BRANCHES,THEY WERE TELLING ME THAT THEY DONT USE MTCN THAT MTCN IS FOR WESTERN UNION TRANSFER,CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT?

I AWAIT THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS SO THAT THIS WILL MAKE THE BANKERS SERIOUS AND ACT FAST.

WILL ALWAYS KEEP YOU POSTED.

THANKS FOR ALL YOU EFFORT,MAY GOD ALMIGHTY CROWN YOUR EFFORT,IN JESUS NAME,AMEN.

Err, that was 1, what happened to 2, and 3?

USA Bank Personal accounts to yusuf

Dear Yusuf,

From what I can find out, the money is sent by Western Union Secure
Service from their London hub, to their hub in Accra Ghana, then from
there to the Oceanic bank in Abuja, It is there that the problem lies,
due to the corruption that plagues Nigeria, they don't trust their own
staff to wire the money to Lagos and not steal it before you pick the
funds up.

Basically �10,000 payments are large enough for everyone in the west
African banking system to panic, which is why regular Western Union
will not even deal with a payment of this size.

My Supervisor, , thinks that someone tampered with the
transfer to make it look like it had been picked up, and pulled it from the system.
Luckily, your emails notified us of the situation,
and we have saved your money from being stolen, even if we have made
it harder to pick up - sorry about that.

At present, the transfer is listed as follows:

12-17-2007: Recalled to Delete edit

As a safety precaution, because there has been malpractice, the money
is recalled to the Western Union hub office at the Prudential bank, to
where it was wired in the first place.

Mrs Ch0vie has asked our data processing center to provide the
original Western Union Secure payslip. Whilst a secure payment CANNOT
be picked up at just any agent, I will send you the payment slip as
proof that the money is yours.

Please bear with us, because of the Christmas rush it may be a day or
two before we get a reply from the data center.

I will try and call you later, (Homer?)

He thinks G4ye is a bloke, btw.

Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 8:55 pm

G4ye B4rr just called and the idiot answered the phone and didn't talk. Whatta maroon. Whatta ignoranamus.

Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 9:09 pm

Got through. Good gawd, I think cavemen had a better phone system that this guy had. I punished him for his crap phone by giving some of Jillian Hall's lovely Christmas album.

Anyhow, I don't know if he knows anything happened or not. G@ye did make an executive decision to add $10.00 on to the transfer to make up for the inconvenience of his safari.

You have found it.. the worst Christmas album in existence! All lads deserve such Xmas Wishes!

Did anyone else understand anything this lad said? I got a couple of hellos, everything else was a garbled mess. I know he said his network is sh!t, but it is making Telstra look competent, and thats actually a frightening thought.

More anguish from Yusuf, more stalling from Gaye. I am hoping to send him his documents to take to the Pru in Accra, just before the bank closes for the holidays. That way he can only do as he has been told, and go on an Xmas safari, no arguing. Twisted Evil

Dear Yusuf,

I am sorry that your telephone system did not let us have a proper
conversation when I called. I have just spoken to Anne Ch0vie, my
supervisor, she has checked and the original Western Union transfer
slip, sending the money to their hub in Ghana, is being sent over by
courier. I am assured that I will get it first thing on Friday.

Until the money is released from Ghana, it cannot go anywhere, but at
least it is 100% safe and risky free there.

I have tried to contact the sender, Lord N0rris, sadly he is away for
the holiday in Scotlandshire, where he is staying with HM The Queen.

I will email again as soon as I know something,

I am away over Xmas, but will try & login when visiting my Brother In Law to check on his progress.

A delicious irony in sending him a fake WU transfer is that as a scammer, as well as his ridiculous 'something bad will happen in 40 days if you don't pay me' format, he also poses as a Western Union office manager trying to reunite his punters with their 'fund' (for a fee of course).

Quote:

Dear Yusuf,

I am expecting that the original documents will arrive tomorrow
morning, your time.
Before I leave for the bank Christmas party, I will scan the Western
Union Slip and send it to you as an attachment.

You need to print this out, with a color printer, and take it to the
bank, as proof of your transfer. You should ask to see the manager if
possible, as the counter staff may not have that sort of money handy.
You will be paid out in Pounds Sterling, but you will then be able to
convert it to a more convenient currency, if you wish.

I will write again tomorrow,
