Fed up with these e-mails we posted a rumor that plain clothes policemen were going into Nigerian Internet Cafes to catch these scammers. You can imagine to our surprise several months later when television broadcast that this had actually happened. Had the Nigerian police seen our posting and acted on it?
We are pleased to see that the Spanish police have arrested a network operating in the Málaga area of Spain, detaining ten members of the gang who had defrauded their victims of 19.000 € in just 3 months.
The crooks had been connected to the internet via the unprotected WiFi connection of their neighbors, so operating from anonymity.
The 'Iran operation' named following the complaint of an Iranian citizen who alerted the police that he had been cheated. The victim received a letter in which he reported that he had been blessed with an award in Spain under an international promotion of the 'Lotteries and Gambling Spanish'. He sent two urgent transfers for a total of 5,000 euros to the so called “Collection Agent”. Once he had sent the money, he lost all contact with the scammer. The investigators tracked the computer connections used by the organization. To their surprise they saw that the vast majority originated from a chalet called Teatinos, occupied by a normal family. The officers searched the surrounding area and noted that in the attached cottage adjacent lived several men of Nigerian origin. Their high life style with no evidence of gainful employment gave them away.
During the past two weeks the police have arrested approximately 400 and 20 Romanians involved in credit card fraud. The Spanish police are pretty effective.
