One of this method is referred to in Nigeria as The Advance Fee Fraud.
These Fraud sters are gradually being caught up with by The Body called (EFCC).
those involved are referred to as Yahoo Boys because they stay on the Internet overnight to trap innocent biz men.
So another telltale sign is to check if the Nigerian time of their email is overnight.
Victory is ours

nice article, but I disagree with the payment by credit card aspect, our company pays by credit card and paypal to protect ourselves from those great sellers/scams who accept western union or T/T only and steal money
like anything else, you have bad people out there no matter what

Replying to [Admin]: I have personal knowlegde and experience of scammers. This has gone on for the past year and they don't give up. Promising large amounts of cash "if you help me get my money out of South Africa". Usage of "in the name of God" and "God bless" are indeed common. I advise everyone to by aware of these criminals.![[em5]](http://img.alibaba.com/images/eng/style/icon/emoticons_angry.gif)

Replying to [Admin]:I have a company located in the united states. I made an attempt to do business with the company Nakumarastore.com located in Indonesia. I made contact through inquiry with a person by the name of Antoni Silitonga. I made an order for 20 units playstation 3 at the price of 2060.00 USD. on the date of 10/23/2006. The transaction was done by wire transfer to the Benificiary Name:
Nelson Simbolon
Account # 0611957792 SWIFT CODE: CENAIDJA
Bank Central Asia (BCA)
Jl Iman Bonjol No. 90
Lubuk Baja, Indonesia
The email address is antoni.skyshop@gmail.com.
The telephone numbers used were +626177381271, and +626181533741838, and a fax number of +626177381277.
After sending the payment in full, the scammer then stopped corresponding to my emails, stopped taking my phone calls, and I never recieved my merchandise. Hopefully, by sending this information out to you, you can stop this scammer from doing this to anyone else. If you have heard about this particular scammer, feel free to contact me by email ididit30@breakthru.com .Thank you.

Replying to [Admin]:I beg to differ,
I recently, On Friday November 3, 2006 entered into an agreement with an " Alibaba Gold Member/TrustPass Member, Putian Lexiang Plastic Co., Ltd.
I utilized the strategy that you wrote about below:
Insist on receiving a Complete company profile from any new business clients that send you an Inquiry/Email...When you have this information, you can contact your local government embassy or Chamber of Commerce in that buyers country and verify the information to be correct. The safest way to ensure you are getting the best in buyers, is when the buyer or supplier is TrustPass certified...You can always trust in Alibaba.com for ensuring great trade leads this way!
But ive still been scammed, He is blocking the account that i negotiated with him on and he makes no response. Im glad I only sent him a nominal fe for a sample of several of his goods. He has not sent any packages or anything.
This is the main reason that I ignore Alibaba (Sarah's ) repeated attempts to emcourage me to join and pay a fee. Why would i want to join a group that wont even listen to its paid or non paid members and drop, suspend or remove violators. They wont even truly examine the scammers thoroughly. I keep running ito another scammer that I flushed out over three months ago on Alibaba. Winsor Newton, Still on every day running this scam. They arent even clever enough to change the name or company that they use significantly enough to avoid detection. But an even more tragic thing is that Alibaba doesnt catch it and thwart this group. Who is subjecting us to more danger the scammers or Alibaba?
Think about it. Remember that Alibaba corporate is in the same business any of us are. (money making) and to that end they will take money from any one.
