TO ALL OF THOSE OUT THERE WHO WORRY ABOUT THE SCAMMERS:
I am in contact with my local FBI office here in MD, I myself work for the state of MD, and am beginning to track and sort down all of the information on these scammers. Including commentary from these pages.All of the companies such as Wal-Mart and Wells Fargo are aware of these issues, and are very hush-hush so far.
PLEASE, IF YOU RECEIVE THESE EMAILS, DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE TRUST THEM! THEY SENT TO ME PERSONALLY MULTIPLE EMAILS, NOT KNOWING WHO I WAS AND ARE IN THE PROCESS OF MAILING THESE FRAUDULENT MONEY ORDERS. I STILL DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT THOSE WHO HAVE LOST THEIR MONEY. I AM SO SORRY.

Dear Friend,
My name is Susan Bryant, I am an artist with my husband James Harrison,We own SUS ART WORLD in London,Zealand(United Kingdom)I live in London United Kingdom, with my two kids, four cats, one dog and the love of my life my husband James Harrison. It is definitely a full house, I have been doing artwork since I was a small child That gives me about 23 years of experience I majored in art in high school and took a few college art courses Most of my work is done in either pencil or art brush mixed with color pencils.

I have recently added designing and creating artwork on the computer, I have been selling my art for the last 3 years and have had my work featured on trading cards, prints and in magazines, I have sold in galleries and to private collectors from all around the world. I am always facing serious difficulties when it comes to selling my art works to Americans, th ey are always offering to pay with money order or casher´s checque, which is difficult for me to
cash here in London United Kingdom.

I am looking for a representative in the United States of America who will be working for me as a par time worker and i will be willing to pay 10% for every transaction, which wouldn’t affect your present state of work, someone who would help me receive payments from my customers in the states, I mean someone that is responsible and reliable, because the cost of coming to the state and getting payments is very expensive, I am working on setting up a branch in the state, so for now i need a representative in the United States of America who will be handling the payment aspect for our company.

These payments are in money order or casher´s checque, and they wouldcome to you in your name if you are willing to assist as a representative, so all you need do is cash the money order deduct your percentage and western union Charges then wire the rest back.
But the problem i have is trust, i have made arrangement with the FBI in Washington,that if anybody gets away with my money they will definately get hold with the person,and the person will go to JAIL for LOOTING my funds , you are to receive the money order or casher´s checque payment which will be sent to you by the fedex or UPS from my business par tners, which would come in form of a money order or casher´s checque then you are to take it to your bank account to enable you cash it and send the money cashed for the money order or casher´s checque to me via westen union money transfer or money gram.

NOTE: All charges of the westen union money transfer will be deducted from the money, so you are rest assured that you wouldn’t spend a dime out of your personal money.If you are interested, please get back to me a s soon as possible via email.

Please send to me the listed information below:
#Your full name:
#Your full home address,
#Your age,#Occupation and as well your #marital status, and your,#direct contact telephone number,
So that my customer will send the casher´s checque to you via Fedex or overnight shipment.


Thanks for your assistant and God bless,

Susan Bryant.
Director of SUS ART WORLD INC,
London, United Kingdom.

Just got an email like this today, I work for the state of MD, as an officer and Investigator Intake Person. I will find them Suprise suprise to them! lol!

I received an e-mail from Susan Bryant (and her husband, Tom) in the UK regarding the same "scam" that Mr. Dibble mentions below.

I have no idea who or what they are, but cannot seem to find a bit of proof via the internet or anywhere else that they are real people, artists, etc.

How awful that they are allowed to even come into anyone's e-mail stream under the guise of cashing money orders. What a joke. Who looks into this? I'd love to forward the e-mail to them.


2006-01-17 15:01:12 -
I received the email below. Like others I was contacted because of a resume posted on a job board. Thank you for having this site. My thought was that it may be a way for terrorists to launder money through the US by using a person's name instead of a charitable organization that may be on the Government watch list. This may be a supposition, but I am glad that others reported so that I would not get too involved.

my

Government Chairman here in my country Nigeria, but now, I am into
private
local shipping.

Business is not moving to well and things are crumbling, the Economy
here is
bad and above all the government is too inquisitive.

I am 53 my wife 42, I have 4 children as well as most of my cousins
stay
with me and probably would come around with me. I have a sister that is
presently a doctor and also a brother that is a Teacher. I do hope all
now
you know a little about me, so also I want to know about your very
self.

My need to acquire these properties is urgent, as I am planning to move
out
of my country with my family down to your country. I want you to also
look
for a good home (mini estate) where my family and me will live in.

Please do write me back, so that we can proceed, I will need your phone

fax numbers to make contact with you if I am unable to access
My emails.

Best Regards,

Moritz lord.
