We have recently been inundated with emails and queries, seeking confirmation or validity of business propositions made to individuals by people claiming to work for, or affiliated to Shell Companies in Nigeria.
These propositions come in various forms.
People solicit the help of potential victims to transfer large sums of money in foreign currency. The people initiating these propositions claim the funds involved are entitlements due from Shell Companies in Nigeria for deceased relatives, or monies accruing from excess crude oil sales.in some cases, they claim the funds have been forgotten in some dormant account. Sometimes they also propose to award huge value contracts to the recipients of such mails.
She tried to get me to give her all of bank account information including account number so she could have the money from her father's pension transferred.
