Vandaag ontving is een  "Vriendverzoek' van 'Stamboomlid' Raymond Oliver met dit verzoek: < I need to have an important discussion with you regarding your surname. Could you please reach out to me at R_oliver34@outlook.com for more details.> Ik heb hem gemaild en kreeg dit antwoord: < My Name is Raymond Oliver, I am a British citizen working with NatWest Bank UK. I have been working here for more than 17 years and I have a good working record with my bank.

I am also the personal accountant to Engineer Eric Bik, a foreign contractor who has an investment account with my bank with a huge sum of money in it. My late client was a chemical consultant contractor with Royal Dutch until he died in a fatal car accident while in France on sabbatical with his entire family. The accident unfortunately took the lives of the family members comprising of himself, his wife and two kids in the summer of 2019 may their soul rest in perfect peace. He banked with us here at NatWest Bank and had a very huge sum of Funds in his account which has still yet not been claimed by anybody as there was no living will in place when he died. The amount of money involved here is about 9,649,400 (Nine million, six hundred and forty-nine thousand Pounds.) in his account with indefinite interest. Since the death of my client; my bank and I have made several inquiries to his embassy to locate any of his extended family members or relatives but this has proven unsuccessful. I came to know about you in my search for a person who shares the same last name as my late client on FamilyTreeForum.

I feel it would not have been the last wish of my late client for his whole life work to be transferred to a government (Es cheat). He had always complained of their unfavorable public monetary policies, taxes and so on while he was alive. My bank has issued me several notices to provide the next of kin or the account risk been es cheat within the next 10 official working days. The last notice for the claim came to my desk last week. I am contacting you to assist me in repatriating the funds left behind before they are declared unserviceable by my bank. I am seeking your consent to present you as the next of kin of my late client since you share and bear the same last name. As such, the proceeds of the account can be paid to you as soon as you contact my bank and apply for the funds to be released to you as the next of kin. If we can be of one accord, I see no reason why we would not succeed. We both have to act swiftly on this matter in other to beat the deadline es cheat date. Please get back to me immediately for us to proceed.

I propose that upon successful completion of this deal, we will split the proceeds 50:50 ratio. I am after the success of this transaction with your full co-operation. All I require is your honesty and full co-operation to enable us to see this cool deal go through. I guarantee you that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that will protect you and me from breaching UK laws. I want to also inform you that I am a very religious person and I cannot tell a lie because of my strong believes; I would expect the same from you.  I will attach my international Passport ID in my next mail for authenticity and trust so we have equal ground to trust each other. If you are interested in my proposal, I will send you more information directing you on further procedure on how we can claim the Funds in the account successfully. If this proposal is alright by you then kindly get back to me by e-mail for confidential reasons. The content of this mail should be treated with utmost confidentiality and a quick response from you will be highly appreciated.>

In uw Stamboomforum ledenlijst komt Raymond Oliver niet voor en dit voorstel is een bekende poging tot oplichting, veelal vanuit de 'Nigerian scammachine' Opmerkelijk en Verontrustend is dat Raymond erin geslaagd is via uw 'Vriendverzoek' contact op te nemen.

Vriendelijke groeten, Henri Bik, France

Hartelijk dank. Dit is een identieke boodschap die ik ook ontving. Raymond Oliver was een chef (de cuisine) die in 1990 overleden is. De tekst is een schoolvoorbeeld van de advance fraud. Taalgebruik wijst naar West-Afrikaans, vroeger hadden we het over Nigeriaans. En de gewraakte persoon blijkt geen lid te zijn van dit forum, zo het vorige al niet genoeg indicatie was. Toch vervelend!

Is er ergens een optie om die vriendschapsverzoeken uit te vinken ? 

E-mail gelijk verwijderen, ik had de bevoegdheid nog om de persoon te verwijden
