SCAM ALERT!!! A new method of Scamming discovered: THE HITMAN SCAM –A Must Read! by JoshuaKay(m): 8:46am On Jan 10, 2015 |
Scammers are known for a wide ranging number of Internet scams, some more farfetched than others. But perhaps one of the most audacious scams is the one known as the “hitman scam” and it's been active since at least 2006. And it’s not a particularly complex con, either. Certainly nothing you’d see in an episode of “The Hustle“. In fact the entire scam amounts to nothing more than extortion, but in one of the most audacious ways possible. It starts, like so many online scams do, via an email. In this email, the recipient is told that their life is in danger because some unknown entity has paid a hitman to kill them. The sender of the email (the scammer) claims to be the person hired to carry out the killing. However, after watching the recipient for some time, the scammer claims that they are willing to allow them to pay a higher price in order to save themselves.Basically, the victim is tricked into believing that they have to cough up a large sum of money in order to save their life. The emails assert that going to the police will result in the “contract”being carried out. An example can be seen below – SOMEONE YOU CALL YOUR FRIEND, WANTS YOU DEAD.I felt very sorry and bad for you, that your life is going to end like this if you don’t comply, i was paid to eliminateyou and I have to do it within 10 days.Someone you call your friend wants you dead by all means, and the person have spent a lot of money on this, the person also came to us and told us that he wants you deadand he provided us your names, photograph and other necessary information we needed about you. If you are indoubt with this I will send you your name and where you are residing in my next mail.Meanwhile, I have sent my boys to track you down and they have carried out the necessary investigation needed for the operation, but I ordered them to stop for a while and not to strike immediately because I just feltsomething good and sympathetic about you. I decided to contact you first and know why somebody will want you dead by all means. Right now my men are monitoring you, their eyes are on you, and even the place you think is safer for you to hide might not be. Now do you want to LIVE OR DIE? It is up to you. Get back to me now if you are ready to enter deal with me, I mean life trade, who knows, and I might just spear your life, $8,000 is all you need to spend. You willfirst of all pay $3,000 then I will send the tape of the person that want you dead to you and when the tape gets to you, you will pay the remaining$5,000. If you are not ready for my help, then I will have no choice but to carry on the assignment after all I have already being paid before now. Warning: do not think of contacting the police or even tell anyone because I will extend it to any member of your family since you are aware that somebody want you dead, and the person knows some members of your family as well.For your own good I will adviseyou not to go out once is 7pm until I make out time to see you and give you the tape of my discussion with the personwho want you dead then you can use it to take any legal action. Good luck as I await your reply to this e-mail contact: b.patbulle2240@gmail.com Source: http://www.thatsnonsense.com/blog/hitman-scam-audacious-internet-scam/ Have u received an email similar to this?

Only a daredevil will not take this kind pf scam seriously. But one thing about hit men is their unquestionable loyalty (except for those that are spies). No amount of money will make him go back on killing the victim. I know of this as a result of one of my teacher's husband's killing by hit men. The man and wife begged the killer promising to double whatever he was paid but he told then that his life has been bought No professional hitman will contact his contract. But still one has to be careful o 1 Like |

Buhahahahahahahahaha Na only white this one fit work for. Try it on 9ja babes and guys, this is what you get in reply. Dear Mr. Assassin, How are you? I hope you are fine. How are you spending the money my friend sent to you? Hope you are flexing it well because another one might not find its way into your palms. I've always wanted someone to talk to and I feel you're that person. Here are my worries: am broke right now, am out of job, I have a family to feed, my girlfriend is pregnant and I don't know how to tell my wife, I'm facing serious political challenge in my area because, right now, am in the north and am scared I might still die soon if someone looses election, I, my wife and kids moved out of our rented apartment into my fathers house because of lack of cash to pay rent, etc In short, Mr.Assassin, if I keep on listing my problems, you will start crying and you may even repent of your ways which I don't really want right now. Am tired of life and I don't want to meet February 14 because its either my wife finds out I'm about to have a baby mama and poisons me or I get killed in the post election violence, or I die of hunger, or I die of high blood pressure. So please make it snappy. I'd rather you reduce the 8 days ultimatum and come get me tomorrow because I must have repented by then. Thank you for your corporation. Kindest regards, Your Victim-to-be. 9 Likes 1 Share |
