"Scammers often rely on the greed and dishonesty of the mark, who may attempt to out-cheat the con artist, only to discover that he or she has been manipulated into losing from the very beginning. This is such a general principle in confidence tricks that there is a saying among con men that "you can't cheat an honest man." - Scams

This book is about dishonesty - from street level to Cyberworld . It describes the common scams in circulation today and their origins. It shows how each fraud is perpetrated and how the informed reader can avoid or at least minimise their losses when faced with the scenario. If after reading this book you still manage to get scammed, you deserve to be put facing a corner with a dunce cap on your head and whipped with your empty wallet !

Dear Partner

I received encouraging information about you and how trusts worthy you are. I am delighted with such useful information. My name is Mr Ahmed Kabore I am the manager of auditing and accounting department of BANQUE SAHELO SAHARIENNER POUR L'INVESTISSEMENT ET COMMERCE   BURKINA FASO     AFRICA   ( B.S.I.C) here in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.

In my department i discovered an abandoned sum US$10.5 million us dollars) in an account that belongs to a Gold Mining foreign customer who died along with his entire family on July 2003 in a plane crash. Since we got information about his death, we have been expecting his next of kin to come over and claim his money because we can not release it unless some body applies for it as next of kin or relation to the deceased.

Unfortunately we learnt that all his supposed next of kin or relation died alongside with him at the plane crash leaving nobody behind for the claim. It is therefore upon this discovery that I now decided to make this business proposal to you, so that the money can be release to your account as the next of kin. And I agreed to offer you 50% of this money as my foreign partner after confirmation of the fund in your bank account.You should contact me immediately as soon as you receive this letter.

Trusting to hear from you immediately.

Yours Sincerely,
Mr Ahmed Kabore
