    HMRC phishing scam exposed!

    October 23, 2014 by Neil Ford

    If you receive an email offering a tax rebate and think it’s too good to be true, it is. HM Revenue and Customs has reported a massive increase in phishing emails purporting to offer rebates to taxpayers. 74,743 scam emails were reported to HMRC between April and September this year, a 70% increase on the same six-month period last year.
    The emails offer a tax rebate and then ask for the recipient’s name, address, date of birth, bank and credit card details, and passwords. Credulous taxpayers who obligingly hand over their details will soon find their bank accounts cleared and their personal information sold on to other criminal gangs. HMRC never emails taxpayers about rebates.
    Steve Singh, deputy head of operations at HMRC Digital Security said:
    “HMRC never contacts customers who are due a tax refund by email – we always send a letter through the post. If you receive an email which claims to be from HMRC, and which offers you a tax refund, we recommend you send it to phishing@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk and then permanently delete it. We can, and do, close the websites down and we continue our efforts to work with law enforcement agencies around the world to bring down the criminals behind these scams.”
    In the same six-month period, HMRC worked with law enforcement agencies to close down more than 4,000 websites responsible for sending out phishing emails.

      FROM THE DESK OF MS ROSE MARTINS
      From Rose Martins Vital Letter Of Notice.
      Martins <mr1@rediffmail.com>

      I hope this mail will find you in good faith and not as I am writing with air of trepidation owning to the fact that I don’t know what could be your reaction to what I am disclosing here from my findings working with Bank Of America (BOA) T24 frame work database. Before proceeding, I would like to briefly introduce myself with utmost believe that all things said here in confidence will remain absolutely confidential so as not put my profession in jeopardy while trying to help you.

      I am, Ms Rose Martins, 29 years old, single, a computer Analyst by profession, citizen of BVI Caribbean, studied in United Kingdom. I was contracted by an IT firm who has this direct contract with Bank of America (BOA) to come and administer my expertise in their T24 infrastructure and upgrade financial support service Gateways as it has to do with my area of discipline and major. In line with this I discovered wholesome lots of discrepancies and misappropriation of funds in the accounting structural table and found your data among the lists and this formed the basis of my contacting you.

      In line as my work proceedings, I need to reset their Telex Electronic Transfer System Database which was already in RED and found out the intending criminality of the Bank’s Telex Operation Director not to complete some outstanding transfer to their respective owners and to divert those funds to another account for his own interest.

      In furtherance to this I confirmed $10.5m reviewed already by the Transfer Payment Machine, on this regard, I silently questioned myself on why your fund was not transferred; hence the TPM has already reviewed it. This was my prime motivation to make further research on their Telex Transfer Online Payment Application and got your details in the Electronic Hard Disk (EHD) because I cannot be a party to such development; hence my contacting you to expedite the transfer to you before my 3 Months contract with them expires. I have the full capacity to transfer your fund to you in less than 120 banking hours only if you will work with my directive to keep everything confidential and compensation to me on a successful transferred.

      To get this done successfully, I will install a Telex Electronic Computer Hard Disk Inline Transfer as your account details was wiped out of BOA Telex Electronic Computer Hard Disk Online Database for invocation and reset the Electronic Database Security Code to the online transfer system and login your details for transfer, and after the transfer is completed, I will wipe out the Telex Transfer Notice and destroy the Disk to avoid any trace and track.

      I look forward to hearing from you soon as time is not on our side, while promising to give you the best service in this regard on my profession count.

      Regards,

      Ms. Rose Martins

                  When are people going to stop offering me money? Can't they see I don't care too much for money, money can't buy me love? msl:

                  Hello!

                  Before I introduce myself, I know you must have been receiving thousands of similar proposal everyday in your inbox, please exercise patience and give this a trial with adequate attention. As a matter of fact, there are bogus scam proposal in the net, however there are still few genuine ones as well but only difficult to know it.

                  I am Sarah Kim, a Singaporean. I work with Semco Salvage & Marine Pte Ltd, Singapore as a Mate in the Ship. Due to the nature of the job I am always in the High Sea (Offshore) which makes it difficult for me to always be available in Singapore.

                  The reason I am writing this message is to ask if you would be interested in a Deal concerning a claim of an Inheritance entitlement of US$45M from Development Bank of Singapore (DBS) which was deposited by late Mr. Nusret Mahmood Syed who committed suicide on 15th of March, 2006 as a result of his frustration life being an impotent since he could not produce a child of his own. Mr. Nusret Mahmood Syed was an uncle to my friend, Farooq whoI lost a few Months ago after a brief illness.

                  This information regarding the fund deposit came to me through the message received from the bank, DBS requesting for any of the family member of Mr. Nusret Mahmood Syed to come forward for the claim. In the message, they made it clear that the reason why the fund has not been appropriated in accordance to the laws of Singapore ever since the death of the depositor is because the account was sealed with Micro Chips. They explained further that there were some unscrupulous top executive staffs of the bank that were secretly trading with the fund over the years and making profits for themselves without the knowledge of the Management of the bank. According to them, the secret was unveiled when the bank was overhauling and auditing their general accounts for year 2014 third fiscal quarter through their new auditors employed for that purpose.

                  The bank stated that in their quest to locate any family relative to the decease to ensure they appropriate the fund deposit according to the laws, so they had to broacast email messages to the general public of Singapore. And I found the message in my late boy friend's inbox which I know the man in question was a member of his family. That was how I came about this information. In the email, they also said that due to the long period the fund has been in the bank unclaimed more than 5 years as against the Singapore Government Financial Regulatory Body, so they have just one Month mandate to appropriate the claim. Therefore anybody from the family is advised to come forward to apply for the claim and if nobody comes forward within this period of time, the fund will be confiscated and forfeited to the Government of Singapore treasury as the laws demand. According to my finding there is nobody in the family that is aware of the deposited fund.

                  But my problem is that I will not be available within this time frame. And considering Singapore Citizens Birth Record as documented in the Home Affairs Commission for the fact that I am a Singaporean there is no way I can claim a family member of the decease or front anybody who is also a Citizen as a family member to the decease genuinely without the awareness of the Authority knowing that it is a false/fake, and the attracted penalty of such offense is very high. But in your case, since you are a foreigner the Authority will not verify your family trace with the decease because it involves two different countries as it would possibly appear that you both related through your mother's family background, which can enable us claim his is your uncle.

                  I do not have a trusted person around as foreigner, a reliable business person in the right position to handle this issue on my behalf so I decided source around foreign partner to execute the business. That is how I came about you, if you could be trusted, sincere and capable enough to handle the business in my absence then claim the fund by using your bank account to receive the fund. If you are interested and can assure me that you will not disappoint/betray me at the end and you have the experience and capacity good enough to handle this high profiled business successfully in my absence therefore, I prepare to offer you 30% of the total amount for the job.

                  I will also like you to help me invest my share into Real Estate and Tourist business right there in your country or invest it in any lucrative business portfolio in anywhere abroad until I will be around to meet you. In order to enable you claim the fund on my behalf, we shall re-profile all the necessary documents which will position you as member of the family and beneficiary of the fund in a way that you will not entertain any hiccup (problem).This is because without preparing the legal and official documents in your favour as a family member of the decease the bank will not honour the application and release the fund to you.

                  Upon hearing from you I shall advise you on next step forward.

                  Best regards,

                  Sarah Kim

                    And yet again...

                    Hello,

                    I hope that this correspondence is received with the urgency and expediency required.

                    It has come to the notice of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Reserve Bank here in New York that your present inheritance claims application being handled by the Remitting Bank in Nigeria is experiencing some man made irregularities.To this effect,it has become necessary for the Board of Trustees to assign trained Fund Transfer Specialists from the United States to resolve and regularize your fund release with immediate effect.

                    We at Peter Simons & Consults have been duly consulted by the FRB Board of Trustees. We have been fully informed about how the staff of the remitting bank has been taking advantage of you by telling you to pay unnecessarily exorbitant charges which will only make your fund payment a long drawn out process.

                    Due to this development, we have been assigned to step into the immediate processing of your fund transfer to enable your funds to be transferred to you within the shortest possible time. To implement this, you are to get back to us immediately without needing to pay all the huge sums of monies that are being demanded from you by the previous handlers at the remitting bank.

                    All processes to have your funds paid to you immediately through the CBN's Liaison Remittance Office in New York have been initiated to cut out unnecessary costs.You are advised to treat this communication with the urgency and seriousness required as the Board of Trustees of the Federal Reserve Bank has mandated us to resolve this fund payment within the next three working days independent of the office of the Remitting Bank in Africa.

                    Furthermore,you are hereby advised to pay no further fees or charges to the Remitting Bank in Nigeria as they shall no longer be handling your payment process.

                    We shall await your immediate correspondence with your direct telephone numbers for re-confirmation to my confidential email address at ( peter.simons@netzero.net ) so that we may conclude your payment immediately.

                    Yours Sincerely,

                      Hello,

                      I know that this letter will reach you as a surprise, for the simple fact that we have never met. Rest assured because these are good intentions.
                      I'm Jacob Morgan, Director of the Audit department of a bank in United States, During my research at the bank, we have a client, Mr Anthonio Donoloi, who happens to be a closed family friend. Mr Anthonio Donoloi has an account balance of more than $11,500,000.00 precisely in our bank Unfortunately, he died in a plane crash traveling on holidays with his family. His wife and children (two son and a daughter) also died in the crash. Thus, leaving no one as close relatives to recover the account. Regulation by our bank states that any account that is dormant for Eight (8) years of financial year will be confiscated by the bank and the money will be given to the government after which the account will be permanently Blocked. I made every possible effort to contact any of Mr Anthonio Donoloi relations to claim the money but all was in vain. Therefore, I will need a credible person who will act as relatives of the deceased Mr Anthonio Donoloi and claim this money.You will leave the area of transfer to me because I will be the person to make the transfer and i will take all the consequences that may arise.

                      But more importantly, I do not want my bank to realize that I am directly involved in this transaction as that could put my job on the line and my career in state complication. More details will be given to you upon confirmation of your interest. Please treat this matter very confidential and strictly private, I await your urgent response. I will give you full details if you are ready to work with me, I want to reassure you that there is no risk involve, your safety is guaranteed.

                      Please contact me on this Email for more details ( jmorgan15@outlook.com )

                      Sincerely,

                                Hello,

                                I hope that this correspondence is received with the urgency and expediency required.

                                It has come to the notice of the Board of Trustees of the Federal Reserve Bank here in Washington, D.C. that your present inheritance claims application being handled by the Remitting Bank in Nigeria is experiencing some man made irregularities.To this effect, it has become necessary for the Board of Trustees to assign trained Fund Transfer Specialists from the United States to resolve and regularize your fund release with immediate effect.

                                We at Peter Simons & Consults have been duly consulted by the FRB Board of Trustees. We have been fully informed about how the staff of the remitting bank has been taking advantage of you by telling you to pay unnecessarily exorbitant charges which will only make your fund payment a long drawn out process.

                                Due to this development, we have been assigned to step into the immediate processing of your fund transfer to enable your funds to be transferred to you within the shortest possible time. To implement this, you are to get back to us immediately without needing to pay all the huge sums of monies that are being demanded from you by the previous handlers at the remitting bank.

                                All processes to have your funds paid to you immediately through the CBN's Liaison Remittance Office in Los Angeles, California. have been initiated to cut out unnecessary costs.You are advised to treat this communication with the urgency and seriousness required as the Board of Trustees of the Federal Reserve Bank has mandated us to resolve this fund payment within the next three working days independent of the office of the Remitting Bank in Africa.

                                Furthermore,you are hereby advised to pay no further fees or charges to the Remitting Bank in Nigeria as they shall no longer be handling your payment process.

                                We shall await your immediate correspondence with your direct telephone numbers to my private email address at (peter.simons1@aol.com) for re-confirmation so that we may conclude your payment immediately.

                                Yours Sincerely,
                                Peter Simons.
                                Peter Simons & Consults.
