Hmm, according to the poorly worded e-mail I received from an Nigerian IP address, my Western Union account has been compromised and I need to restate my Password and Login! Hmm. That would be a problem if.. I HAD AN ACCOUNT Ah silly scammers, so amusing. WHO KNEW that Western Union HAD a branch in Nigeria! Well, I'm off to provide the requested info, social security number "verification" and my banks infos. I'm SO GLAD that Western Union Nigeria is so vigilant for my safety! :dance:
Do currency transfer companies have to return the fees collected on fraudulent transfers? If not, then I'm sure Western Union is seriously considering opening a branch in Nigeria to handle all the recent business there. :-D
Hey, that is exceptional customer service. I think I can top that however as all last week a plethora of overseas business institutions asked me for almost exactly the same information. I sat until the wee small hours replying with said password information, VISA details, bank numbers, insurance information, plus a fantastic offer from one Mr. David Um-Bongo Smith (The CEO of a large company trying to escape the clutches of some nasty regime) actually offering me a suitcase full of money. Imagine my surprise when on Wednesday I was declared bankrupt, had my house repossessed and Fraud Squad dragged me into their offices. Not sure how any of this has happened to me? Do you think one of your Nigerian friends might offer me a loan if I send a nice letter? P.S. Just in case there is some confusion, I am actually just joking!!
i probably get around 30-40 phishing emails per DAY from various creditcards, banks that i do not have an account with, ebay, paypal etc, the list goes on! Not to mention another 80-100 offers of certain drugs that make you manbits more 'manly' as apparently i am incapable of satisfying my wifey due to my minuscule size (how these people find out about my downstairs inadequacies ill never know!) painkillers that could knock out a elephant and the least we forget the obligatory pensioner pointy penis pills! On saying this, it may be down tot the fact i've had the same email address for over 10years that probably doesn't help the matter!
