Looking for anyone who may have been told to wire money within the US with regards to the 419 scam. PM me with the info and a brief story on how you were scammed and who exactly the money was wired to.

Website is legitimate. ;)

Sorry, ScamCop, but I tend to check just about any website to verify that they're remotely legitimate.

Part of my nature.

No problem. If you want to know anymore about me, check with Shawn. She can fill you in on who I am and how I became part of this group.

It is a pleasure to meet you and for me personally it is a great feeling to see an officer of the law part of the group trying to help people like me get sorted out and some justice for what happened.

Spawn, you could have just asked me...lol. Mike was very beneficial in my case and is an all-around great guy :wink: He's a very busy man, but he is a student of this scam and has continued to work on building the right relationships in the right places to help make difference.

Mike how can a person handle a police dept who cannot tell the difference between a victim and a perpetrator?

The victim should have a paper trail such as e-mail and any containers which the check was received. For example, many are coming by way of FedEx and alike. Most from Lagos are routed through Great Britan. The tracking information can be obtained from their web site.

You could also refer them to this group. One of the most important issues is that you should have an officer with an open mind. Without an open mind, he/she may pass judgement as soon as the report is filed. TXBELLE had a similar issue but I am sure that the paper trail and this group came to play in her favor.

Let me know if you have any other questions, I will be happy to assist.

Mike has been a part of ScamVictimsUnited.com from it's "birth". He was the first person in law enforcement to really listen to us victims, offer us help, and agree that something needs to be done about this scam.

Mike, it is good to hear from you again!
