SCAMMER TEXT.

 My Queen, I feel so bad and empty right now because my world is about to crash down. this morning that I want to go to the seaport for verification and clearing of my equipment to enable me start up my project today accordingly as planned and agreed in the contract agreement with my company, getting to the seaport, I was told by the custom officer that the equipment and materials I bought from china that was shipped to Accra was contraband. I was not myself when they said it because I was screaming on top my voice, because these very same equipment happens to be the same equipment I have been using to work in other projects in other countries. I have never heard such a word (contraband) from any seaport I have used in other countries. I don’t know why that of Ghana is now a different story.

I have been battling with the customs and finding solutions and alternatives on how to clear my equipment from the seaport. Honey during the process of me arguing and quarreling with the custom officers in charges of clearance, the senior boss of the custom saw how I was talking and he invited me into his office so I went with him. Getting to his office, he made me understand that it’s mandatory in the constitution of Ghana that these kind of materials are not allowed into the country or allowed to be used. He quoted the sub-section from the customs Act which is not my concern. When he finished talking I told him all about myself and how I manage to get the money to purchase the equipment, that if I should lose this contract that my life is gone and all my entire investment will go down the drain. He was kind enough to understand and then said the only way he could order them to proceed with the clearing of the equipment is that I have to pay the sum of 20,000$

My heart almost exploded honey and I almost died from shock. I could not just believe my hears , am so confuse right now my love

INFORMER. I had all his details just waiting for his phone number and there he was gone.  But the name of the receiver of funds was Olaseni Sanni

ADMIN: So there you have it and we thought that would be the end of the scam.  All we have is some tale about Customs and  items being confiscated which require a large sum of money to release.  We know full well that the scammer is going to say something like  ” I only have  15000$ because the bank …(BLAH BLAH BLAH) and so can you lend me the X000$ until I meet you in your country”.  We are wrong because along comes scammer profile Number Two, Tom L Happiness. He is a fake US Marine and has been around since  April 2000.  Don’t worry,  he will come along with a third profile called “Tom William” which is new and immediately turns up on his friends list.
