Nigerian, two others held over e-mail scam February 21, 2012 by Agency Reporter Leave a Comment A Lao woman was allegedly swindled out of 21 million THB (Thai currency) through an e-mail scam by a gang led by a Nigerian. The gang was later arrested in a Pattaya seaside condominium in Laos. Laos is a landlocked country in Southeast Asia. The gang consisting of Biodun Agbajeoba (Nigerian), Paul Michael (Mozambican) and Julia Maksomova (Russian) sent her an e-mail, claiming that $2m belonging to a retiring US navy admiral, McRavens Williams, who wanted to marry her was locked in UN account and that her help was needed. They had sent an e-mail to her claiming that it was from Williams. As part of the scam Williams will marry the Lao woman and move to Laos after his retirement and the money would be transferred to her account. The Lao woman believed them, transferred 21 million THB to their bank account and later realised that she had been tricked and reported the case to the police. Upon arresting the suspects, the police seized bank books, ATM cards, and 10 credit cards as evidence. But she did not receive the promised $2m and she realised that she had been fooled. The police investigation team tracked the money and the suspects. http://www.punchng.com/news/africa/nigerian-two-others-held-over-e-mail-scam/ ຢ່າເຊື່ອໃຈທາງ ຢ່າວາງໃຈຄົນເດີພີ່ນ້ອງ.
