Today once again a false email was sent in my name, asking members to transfer money. As I have already mentioned, I will never ask for money transfers.
After the last false email a few weeks ago I filed a complaint with the German police and they found out that the so-called “Nigeria Connection” is behind it.
Online fraud is a widespread problem in today’s digital world. Especially the so called Nigeria Connection is always stealing large sums of money through its criminal activities.
The term “Nigeria Connection” does not describe a direct organisation, but a loose network of gangs and individuals. These come from the West African country Nigeria.
They have developed a fraud system, which they use to cheat their victims out of large sums of money on the Internet.
Since they work from African internet cafes, the fraudsters remain anonymous and cannot be tracked down by the police.
Please forget and delete the wrong mail.
Kind regards.
