Internet Scams.
The authors performed a mass emails sent to addresses obtained from the Internet, which use both multilateral logos fraudulently: national lottery ("Loteria Primitiva," "El Gordo de la Primitiva," "National Lottery," etc.). As invented ("National Lotto" and the like), which state that the receiver has been graced with the first prize (he's a millionaire), although the alleged victim has not participated in any kind of drawing (which is told been selected randomly through your email address, or between those who have visited certain Web pages or similar explanations).
The only requirement is needed to collect the hefty reward is the pack of a sum of money in payment of taxes, duties, fees, or similar, making it easy for a bank account or applying for a transfer through Western Union . It also often authors use the logos of insurance companies or bank of prestige or even a ministry to "ensure" the authenticity of messages and therefore the collection of the prize. Also contact telephone and fax numbers correspond to mobile phones with prepaid card.
Once the victim has entered the amount of money requested, the scam is consumed, and becomes no longer heard from the authors.
Trileros.
The scam is to encourage public participation by betting money on games of skill that apparently allows great potential for participating, and which are offered on a public street, on a small table. The game used is to find out where lies a ball that is covered by a metal or glass. To make the game seem easier, about the person who moves the plates or vessels (which runs the game), one or several "fake players" (hooks), which make money easily agree with the person that moves the plates. At first, allow the person to win the game starts, so that, encouraged by the success, play a significant amount. The hand is quicker than the eye, so that when the amount is significant, the victim loses irretrievably his money. It is common at fairs and markets.
The Tocomocho.
The scam usually develops transit sites (stations, ATMs, etc.). By a person approaching the victim states have a winning lottery ticket and that the rush can not collect. Desperately asks the victim pay him the prize amount or even less, since due to travel to do can not collect. To give more credibility interrupts another apparent bystander (hook) often assert the authenticity of displaying a list of prize winning tickets in a newspaper. The victim agrees to provide the amount of prize money and when he goes to retrieve the window of the ticket lottery check is fake.
The prayer cards.
The victim (the citizen) is approached by a person who appears to have some intellectual disability (con 1). It teaches you a bag full of money seems, may even be some. 1 The scammer does not give any importance to what has been telling the victim that the bag has "holy pictures" or "stickers" and that house has many more. At this point interrupts another apparent citizen [swindler who makes hook (crook 2)], which gives the victim the ability to fool the scammer 1 buying a bag of money. However, the hook, says he has no money to participate in the "purchase" of the bag. However encourages the victim to make the purchase because of the large benefits it will report "misleading" the scammer 1. Even the hook is provided to accompany the victim to seek money, so that has no hitch. Once the victim embodies the "buy" money by giving away the two swindlers bag. When the victim opened the bag containing checks that no tickets but scraps of paper pads.
The Nazarene.
Victims of the scam are companies that supply goods. The scammers are installed in a rented warehouse on behalf of a company. They begin to make small orders, which are stored in the warehouse and are paid in the event supply companies. In this way the scammers gain the trust of the victims. Then make large orders for goods, telling suppliers that are going to make payments in installments. You can even get to meet the first of such payments. Suddenly, instead the company disappears, taking merchandise and leaving pay outstanding debts. When utility companies ripped off want to make arrangements to run the check collection company that made them no orders.
Installer.
Scammers are people in the home of the victim. They wear overalls. We present saying that they are employees of the gas installation company and coming to a review of the facility. They appear to make several technical papers, normally limited to change a piece of gas hose. Extend work completed invoice. When the victim says the case with other people found to have been defrauded by false installers.
The incurable.
Typically carried out by visiting the home of the victim. The scammer poses as a person who is in dire economic straits, with serious family problems tell if a woman has been abandoned, which has many children and so on. In any case trying to affect the sensitivity of the victim. Eventually, the scammer explains that in order to survive is proceeding to liquidate their most treasured possessions. At this time displays a personal item (wristwatch expensive brand, necklace, ring, etc.). Saying it is a precious jewel, very valuable. Give the object to change in a very low price compared to what he says is worth. When the victim agrees to purchase the object proves to be a bargain.
Internet Scams.
New Modus Operandi-scam in the purchase of vehicles by INTERNET.
It has been observed in several web pages dedicated to the sale of vehicles between two new systems particular scam:
The first is that one person from another country is interested in an advertised car, but not for himself but for an acquaintance. The fact is that the third party would be willing to pay a much higher amount of money requested by the seller, so the alleged con man writing a check to the vehicle owner for the amount of money offered by your name and you have to welcome to the seller is to make a transfer, money order, or via Western Union, by the amount of money from the difference (except maybe a possible compensation for the trouble). The seller of the vehicle receives the check and take it to your bank, it picks it up (it's a real check, there is no reason to suspect), so who then makes the transfer of the agreed amount. After a short space of time is warned by the bank that the account entered in the check bounces or does not exist, so one hand does not have the money and otherwise bespoken already lost the amount transferred. The vehicle does not change hands at any time.
In the second method is the buyer who is cheated. The alleged dealer says he does not mind sending the vehicle to the residence of the buyer, but that change will only want to know if it actually has the money and is not a hoax, so I asked to make a transfer by Western Union but putting a fictitious name as beneficiary, and the scammer might see on the website of this company actually made the payment, but can not access the money. Once seen it will send the vehicle within 2 or 3 days. The scam is that the buyer by an appropriate document counterfeiters have made-up several days to charge the money without sending any vehicle.
