Amazon and CC scam

Boingboing points to two different frauds. One on and one offline.

The first one, involves a point of sale terminal that is hacked to record the card's number and pin while faking a succesful transaction.




The second one, involves social engineering and scaming Amazon. Personaly I do not mind much scamming Amazon, as long as its customers remain safe, due to cheap (and wasteful) marketing techniques used by Amazon ie lighting deals.

So using order numbers and other info, the scammer is able to request a resend of undelivered items to a different address than the original buyer's.

Scams on EBAY ddr2 laptop memory modules

Buyers must always be cautious when buying stuff on EBAY, but today I found a new kind of scam.

They are selling ddr2 laptop memory modules tested and working but of unknown capacity. So my guess is that they put them on a laptop, run memtest in order to find out if they are ok but did not know how to check the capacity...
God damn!

Scam In freecycle!

Απάτη στο freecycle

New type of scam from our Nigerian friends.
I do not have all details yet, but
the scam goes as follows:
They post a valuable item to give away on freecyle, for example an Iphone 4 or 4S so you contact them cause its an excellent bait. (I mean who in their right mind would give away an working ipad instead of selling it, no matter how old it is)
They tell you that the person who has it was send away as a missionary in Africa (usually Lagos Nigeria) and they ask you to provide your details, (eg Address) to send you the item.

As the communication with the scammer is ongoing, I will post details as I receive them.

ΑΠΑΤΕΣ ΣΤΟ aggeliopolis.gr

Προσοχή,
Στο http://aggeliopolis.gr/ καθώς και σε άλλες ελληνικές σελίδες με αγγελίες κυκλοφορούν απατεώνες που θέλουν να αγοράσουν πράγματα για να στείλουν στη Νιγηρία. ΕΙΝΑΙ ΑΠΑΤΕΩΝΕΣ. Αγνοείστε οτιδήποτε σχετικό με τη Νιγηρία. Ανεξάρτητα από τι σόι δικαιολογίες θα σας πουν, (ωκαιανογράφοι, ιεραπόστολοι, επιχειρηματίες σε ταξίδια) Μην μοιραστείτε τα στοιχεία σας μαζί τους και μην πέφτετε θύματα.
Οι απατεώνες επικοινωνούν μαζί σας στα αγγλικά και θέλουν να τους πείτε πόσο πουλάτε το αντικείμενο. Όταν τους πείτε την τιμή, θα σας πούνε να σας πληρώσουνε συνήθως με Paypal αλλά το email πληρωμής είναι ψεύτικο. Το θύμα όμως μπορεί να πεισθεί αφού δέχεται πιέσεις και απειλές ότι θα στείλουν το FBI ή την αστυνομία αν δεν αποστείλει το αντικείμενο. Ο απατεώνας όμως έχει και άλλον άσσο στο μανίκι. Με το ψεύτικο email στέλνει και καλά παραπάνω λεφτά από όσα ζητήσατε και ζητάει να του στείλετε το επιπλέον ποσό με western union.

Εναλλακτικά μπορεί να ζητήσει να πληρώσει με επιταγή. Η επιταγή κατατίθεται, το θύμα βλέπει το ποσό στον λογαριασμό του και ταχυδρομεί το προϊόν. Όμως η επιταγή είναι ακάλυπτη και όπως λένε στα αγγλικά παίρνει μερικές μέρες "to clear the payment" και όταν γίνει αυτό, τα χρήματα εξαφανίζονται από το λογαριασμό του θύματος. Το κόλπο με τα παραπάνω χρήματα ισχύει και εδώ.

Κανονικά επειδή αυτή η απάτη είναι τόσο διαδεδομένη τα ΕΛΤΑ αλλά και όλες οι άλλες ταχυδρομικές εταιρίες και εταιρίες κούριερ θα έπρεπε να έχουν εκπαιδεύσει τους υπαλλήλους να ενημερώνουν τυχών πελάτες που αποστέλουν αντικείμενα στη Νιγηρία για το ενδεχόμενο απάτης.

fake gold bars filled with tungsten! SCAM ALERT

NY1 Exclusive: Diamond District Businessman Tricked Into Paying $100K For Fake Gold Bars. So if you are in the market for gold beware! Fake gold bars are out there.

The shell peels off like foil on a chocolate bar.
Gold and tungsten have almost the exact same density, so a substitution of metals would be difficult to detect. Fadl bought four of the bars, exchanging them for smaller gold bars, because the customer would not take cash.
Fadl said a colleague tipped him off about the scam, prompting him to drill holes in the bars and test the contents.
"Buyers should be aware they should not buy gold bars from any private individual whom they don't know," said Nessim.

Facebook likes? Could be a scam

Yahoo has an interesting piece on why and how lots of liking in facebook can be simply a scam.
Long story short

"Once a page has collected thousands of likes and comments, it will appear higher in people's News Feeds on Facebook - 'Likes' are the 'currency' of the site, as it were. 
Pages with 100,000 likes can be sold for $200, according to adverts unearthed by Pearce. [...] 
Once the pages have collected huge numbers of 'Likes', they are then sold, for cash, to other businesses who use them to make their page appear popular. "

http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/africa/06/10/kenya.crash/index.html

After the burial of my father, my stepmother and uncle conspired and sold my father's property to an Italian Expert rate which the shared the money among themselves and live nothing for me. I am constrained to contact you because of the abuse I am receiving from my wicked stepmother and uncle. They planned to take away all my late father's treasury and properties from me since the unexpected death of my beloved Father. Meanwhile i wanted to escape to the USA but they hide away my international passport and other valuable travelling documents. Luckily they did not discover where i kept my fathers File which contains important documents. So I decided to run to the refugee camp where i am presently seeking asylum under the United Nations High Commission for the Refugee here in Ouagadougou, Republic of Burkina Faso.

One faithful morning, I opened my father's briefcase and found out the documents which he has deposited huge amount of money in bank in Burkina Faso with my name as the next of kin. I travelled to Burkina Faso to withdraw the money for a better life so that I can take care of myself and start a new life, on my arrival, the Bank Director whom I met in person told me that my father's instruction/will to the bank is that the money would only be release to me when I am married or present a trustee who will help me and invest the money overseas.

I have chosen to contact you after my prayers and I believe that you will not betray my trust. But rather take me as your own sister.

Although, you may wonder why I am so soon revealing myself to you without knowing you, well I will say that my mind convince Ed me that you may be the true person to help me. More so, my father of blessed memory deposited the sum of (US$11.500, 000) Dollars in Bank with my name as the next of kin. However, I shall forward you with the necessary documents on confirmation of your acceptance to assist me for the transfer and statement of the fund in your country. As you will help me in an investment, and i will like to complete my studies, as i was in my 1year in the university when my beloved father died. It is my intention to compensate you with 30% of the total money for your services and the balance shall be my capital in your establishment. As soon as I receive your positive response showing your interest I will put things into action immediately. In the light of the above. I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and willingness to handle this transaction sincerely.

AWAITING YOUR URGENT AND POSITIVE RESPONSE, Please do keep this only to your self for now un till the bank will transfer the fund. I beg you not to disclose it till i come over because I am afraid of my wicked stepmother who has threatened to kill me and have the money alone ,I thank God Today that am out from my country (KENYA) but now In (Burkina Faso) where my father deposited these money with my name as the next of Kin. I have the documents for the claims.

Unacceptable publishing feedback delay on Ahappydeal.com (review)

ahappydeal.com allows buyers to leave feedback on products they bought and share their userexperience with the products with other potential buyers. Customers who leave feedback also gain discount points for each feedback left. This should be reassuring for potential buyers, however ahappydeal.com takes a considerable amount of time to actually publish these reviews.
More importantly it seems that ahappydeal.com publishes only positive reviews!
The reason I know that is cause I left two not so positive reviews on two items I bought concerning both items and the after-sales customer service involved and none has been published over a month later...

This is certainly a bad seller practice which for newcomers is not obvious. So here you go. Be careful when buying stuff from ahappydeal.com and everbuying.com as they are essentially the same e-shop and do not trust positive feedback on items they sell.

UPDATE:
Also something else that had not previously chekced. Every time you buy something from Ahappydeal.com you get a tracking code and a link to view where your item is. However this code is useless. The website supposedly checking the tacking code is in chinese, and returns giberish every time and no useful information even when using google translate. The ahappydeal.com tracking code system is USELESS

Credit card fraud

Uk.Finance.Yahoo news has an interesting article about a new type of credit card scam.


[...] The scam works by the victim being telephoned by the fraudster to renew their debit or credit card owing to a fraud on the account. The owner is told to key in their pin number on the phone and a courier is sent out to collect the card. The card is then sent direct to the criminal who also has the pin number.

The majority of victims are older adults and the scammers often give an alternative number for people to call back on to ensure the call is genuine. But instead of hanging up many people are tricked into thinking the call is from their bank and stay on the line.[...]

The UK Payments Council has urged people never to hand over their card to anyone who has come to the door, never to enter their pin number over the telephone and to always speak to their bank securely by making sure there is a dial tone when calling and only ever using the bank’s advertised number.[...]

telephone scammers

Ars Technica has a very interesting article about the scammers that operate via phone, persuading you to give them access of your computer under the pretense of viruses and other malware.

"This scam itself is a few years old now, but I had not personally received one of the calls until yesterday—[...] And here were the scammers on the other end of the line, in what could only be a cosmic coincidence.

I walked around my office with the phone against my ear, then settled into my desk chair and put the call on speakerphone. I wanted to know just what it felt like to be on the receiving end of such a call. I wanted to know how a group of scammers half a world away convinced random and often tech-illiterate people to do things like run the built-in Windows Event Viewer, then connect to a website, download software, and install it (together, no easy feat for many mainstream users). I wanted to know just how the scammers eventually convinced their marks to open up remote control of their PCs to strangers who had just called them on the telephone.

So I played along—which was difficult without a Windows PC in my office. To buy time, I told the scammer that I was waiting for my nonexistent computer to "boot up," then sent a furious blast of instant messages to Brodkin, asking him to do whatever the scammer told me to do and report back on the results. Luckily he was at his computer and immediately agreed—and we were off."

How cybercrime works and why gangs are drawn to this lucrative trade

Yahoo has an interesting article about how cybercrime works. Dig in for more details

Μετά τη θαυματουργή συσκευή που μείωνε την κατανάλωση ρεύματος, τις θαυματουργές μηχανές οζονίασης του νερού, την μαγική μπάλα καθαρισμού λεκέδων χωρίς σαπούνι νερό, ρούχα και λεκέδες, μετά τα βιονικά γιλέκα με τεχνολογία από τον Άρη, μετά την εξωγαλακτική τεχνολογία απομάκρυνσης εντόμων και πρωκτικών μέσω των καλωδίων ρεύματος, σήμερα είδα στο Σκάι ένα εκπληκτικό πιεσόμετρο μόνο προς 40 ευρώ το κομμάτι ή κάνουν και σκόντο αν πάρεις δύο στα 60 ευρώ.

Skype scammer requesting money

I should have a bit more patience with this skype scammer requesting money to visit me and be my woman!!! Had I been, I might had more information to share, but my patience has limits. "she" refused to accept and e-ticket (which would have been ok) and requested spending money on top of the ticket money she would prefer to receive via western union. And of course, receiving money via western union is every scammer's wet dream She also requested to know the f*cking exact time I was going to deposit the money to western union. I assume that was in order to be there to pick it up straight away.

 Skype name: carylon.gurl email: ella4carylon@yahoo.com Western Union details

RECEIVER'S NAMES: ELLA CARYLON TEST QUESTION: CITY ANSWER:LONDON

 The name Ella Carylon could be a mule's name to pick up the money and transfer them to the real scammer. As the use of mules seems to be common. one more scammer for the collection:

παράνομοι έρανοι

Όπως Είχα ξαναγράψει σε αυτό το μπλογκ, για παρόμοιο θέμα υπάρχουν διάφοροι επιτήδιοι που εκμεταλλεύονται τα φιλανθρωπικά αισθήματα του κόσμου. Διαστάσεις επιδημίας προσλαμβάνουν οι παράνομοι έρανοι που διενεργούν επιτήδειοι στην Κοζάνη και στην ευρύτερη περιοχή, κερδοσοπώντας σε βάρος αφελών πολιτών, οι οποίοι προσφέρουν τον οβολό τους για …φιλανθρωπικούς σκοπούς. Μία από τις πολλές που κυκλοφορούν στην περιοχή και διενεργούν εράνους, δήθεν για φιλανθρωπικά σωματεία, συνέλαβαν το απόγευμα της περασμένης Παρασκευής οι αστυνομικές αρχές στην Κοζάνη. Πρόκειται για μία 54χρονη ημεδαπή, η οποία πραγματοποιούσε έρανο χωρίς την απαραίτητη από το νόμο άδεια. Στην κατοχή της βρέθηκαν και κατασχέθηκαν: το χρηματικό ποσό των 35 ευρώ, διάφορα έγγραφα του συλλόγου «Η ΦΡΟΝΤΙΔΑ» και ένα μπλοκ αποδείξεων. Η συλληφθείσα οδηγήθηκε στον εισαγγελέα πλημμελειοδικών Κοζάνης.

Mules from Greece

An article published by Wired, digging into malware infecting personal computers and transferring money from online banking systems to mule accounts, refereed to Greece as one of the mule based countries among Portugal and UK. This sheds new light in the recent flood of emails asking for people in Greece to work online and earn considerable amounts of money. Of course, in such times only crime affords to pay people who have no job or other means to survive.

Extreme caution cheaprshopping.com

I was looking for a mobile phone, and http://cheaprshopping.com has what it seems the best deal on that phone. However browsing around its webpage, it seems they do not have any contact details, telephone and address and also lack any sort of UK shop number that is used by legitimate online shops. I don't want to accuse them falsely but this website does seem rather dangerous to do business with. I would suggest to stay away, unless there is some proof for the opposite (that they are operating legitimately) Also a simple whois request on the website shows that it is about one month old. http://whois.domaintools.com/cheaprshopping.com http://who.godaddy.com/whoischeck.aspx?domain=CHEAPRSHOPPING.COM Not very reassuring in my experience...

Ebay bizzare listing. Extreme caution advised.Item 270994686877, seller: cobnutwm

I got wind of a 7'' tablet on ebay from HOTUKDeals for under 10 quid. Now I am not against a good deal but, a few minutes after I saw the listing in HUKD the listing disappeared. And within less than 10 minutes from 120 buyers for that deal there were 160 buyers.
I am all in for it, but there are a few bizarre things.
This seller says he is from UK, but the item is shipped from Honk Kong.
He has more than 10 items available, and so far seems to have more than 170.
Has never sold any gadgets before. Only strings and books. And these 2 years ago in 2010...
He has only 116 feedback. Typicaly large volume items are sold by sellers with HUMONGOUS feedback.
No returns accepted. Although in the description says 7 days return accepted. Now why would that be?
Free postage. I mean ok, this must weight about 200-400 grams. How much does this cost to ship nationally and internationally? And is included in the tenner?
On the description itself there are a couple photos missing, as if he copied the listing from someone else.


All in all I will not buy it. Let me know if you receive the items (Honk Kong dispatch 20-30 days) let me know and then I may consider it.


update: Today the listing disappeared even though it had another 5 days to run, which confirms to me that this was a scam. It could be that the person behind the account decided to make a run for the money. Or also quite likely is that this account was hijacked by someone who decided to do this scam, or does this scam for a living. Get someones ebay username and password, change the paypal email to your liking, upload a fradulent listing, reap the earnings straight away to a bank account abroad (nigeria comes to mind) (or perhaps in bitcoins) and instant profit! Its not like people will get very frustrated over loosing 10 quid to make a huge fuss about it. Though agregating 400 tenners makes a healthy 4000 quid (minus ebay and paypal expenses)  (unfortunately the last cached google page with this listing is showing only 75 buyers so cant really know the exact number of the victims). I am quite glad I restrained the urge to buy it.

scammer

joykipkalya30@gmail.com


My Dearest,


I know you will be surprise to receive this email, but Before I go further I will like you to understand that, I am writing this mail to you With due respect trust and humanity, I appeal to you to exercise a little patience and read through my letter I feel quite safe dealing with you in this important business, honestly i am writing this email to you with pains, tears and sorrow from my heart, i will really like to have a good relationship with you and i have a special reason why i decided to contact you, i decided to contact you due to the urgency of my present situation here in the refugee camp. My name is Miss. Joy Kipkalya Kones, 25yrs old female and I from Kenya here in Africa; my father was the former Kenyan road Minister. He and Assistant Minister of Home Affairs Lorna Laboso had been on board the Cessna 210, which was headed to Kericho and crashed in a remote area called Kajong'a, in western Kenya. The plane crashed on Tuesday 10th, June, 2008.

After the burial of my beloved father, my stepmother and uncle conspired and sold all my father's properties to an Italian Expertrate which they shared the money they sold from the properties among themselves and live nothing for me. Unfortunately to me I fined my father's briefcase and when I opened it I found a document which my Father used to deposited amount of money in one bank here in Burkina Faso, with my name as the next of kin. I travelled to Burkina Faso here I am, to withdraw the money for a better life
so that I can take care of myself and start up a new life and also further my education, when I arrival to the bank, the Bank foreign Operation Department Director whom I meet in person told me that my father instruction to their bank is that the fund would only be release to me when I am married or present a trustee/partner who will help me and invest the fund overseas after the transfer, and the bank ask me to go and look for a foreign partner, that was why am contacting you, which I believe that you are going to be honest and reliable person that will help me and stand as my trustee/partner, so that I can present you to the Bank for the release and transfer of the inherited fund into your bank account in your country.

I have chosen to contact you after my prayers and I believe that you will not betray my trust. But rather take me as your own sister. Though you may wonder why I am so soon revealing myself to you without knowing you, well I will say that my mind convinced me that you will be the true person to help me. Moreover, I will like to disclose much to you if you can help me to relocate to your country because my stepmothers have threatened to assinate me. The fund my Father deposited into the bank, is ($8.5 USD) Million United State Dollars, and I have confirmed from the bank here in Burkina Faso, on my arrival, You will also help me to place the fund in a good profitable business venture in your Country, However you will also help by recommending a nice University in your country so that I can further my education. It is my intention to compensate you with 40% of the total money for your services and the balance shall be my capital in your establishment. Now my dear as soon as I receive your positive response showing your interest and wiliness to help me, I will put things into action immediately. In the light of the above, I shall appreciate an urgent message indicating your ability and wilingness to help me and also handle this transaction sincerely. Awaiting your urgent and positive response. Please my dear I want you to keep this as a top secret only to your self for now until the bank will release and transfer my inherited fund to you as my appointed trustee/partner. I beg you once again not to disclose this to any body until i come over your country because I am afraid of my weeked stepmother who has threatened to kill me and have my inherited fund alone. I thank you very much and am expecting to hear from you soonest.

Yours Sincerely
Joy Kipkalya Kones.
