I have one idea, how to catch the Scammers!
Hello to all,
I have one idea, how to catch some Scammers in UK. We don't have to go to Nigeria. I get more Scam mails from UK, than from all other countries together. Maybe Crime police can find something new between them. Who needs money today? We all know who they are! Now, my idea: they are asking first for your details. You send them. After that, they are asking for the money (Fee, Transaction of Transfer). Somebody sends the money over Western Union Money Transfer to certain place: f.e. to London, some street. Other person goes there and looks, who is taking that money. Then he acts! That must be somebody from Crime Police, but without uniform. Incognito! Must have gun! I think it is much easier, than to go Nigeria. 1/2 of Nigerian Scam comes from Europe. What do you think about that? Ms.Bobbie

To catch a scam is police matter and individuals must let law enforcemment people to do their job. Be sure they know what to do.

Hello,
I think that Police doesn't do very much, until they are betrayed from somebody. As I know, most of the money they ask is to send to somebody in London (over Western Union Money Transfer). When I was in London, December 2004 I have called Police in Newcastle upon Tyne. There was one woman. From that city I have got more Scam mails, that I have won some money. Once I have to pay so much, other time other amount. Believe me, I had big phone bill after came back here. What was good, that man has never more sent me any Mail! You see, what can do one woman? Much more than men! Sorry, but I have the same experience with woman working by Crime Police in other country. Wish you nice day, Bobbie p.s. I want to know, who is going to catch Charles Soludo?

Catching the UK Scammers
I wonder if western Union could set an alarm, to alert the police when someone try to get money from a scam? If nothing else, maybe get fingerprints or picture of the person.
I will call and find out, I`ll let yall know. If it is not the case, it needs to be done. I think it would dramatically reduce the amount of fraud. Unless western union finds it to profitable to keep accepting fraud money. In that case they would be as guilty as the scammers. Something to think about.

I did not imply in any way to try to apprehend them yourself. As I mentioned "Western Union" needs to do something, And call the authorities in case of fraud.
I called them "Western Union", and as I suspected, they will do nothing. they will only comply with the authorities after the you have been ripped off. They will not take finger prints, or take any pictures of the collectors. Even if you was to request it. And they will not in any circumstance call the authorities unless "they" are getting ripped off. They have no intension in changing their policies. I believe the reason is that it is too profitable of a business for them "the wired money fraud that is". I do not imply that they would commit fraud. They just process the transactions, And they get their share "fraud or not". As Mercenary mentioned, no one should ever attempt to apprehend them themselves. You should call the police and give them as much info as possible. I am sure lots of the scammers carry weapons and in a bad situation, they would most likely use them to get out of it. Conclusion, The wire transfer companies need to tighten up on there transaction procedures. If they will not do it on their own will, they should be forced to. For the sake of the people. Be cool, be safe, don`t get scammed.

I've talked to people at both Western Union and Moneygram... of the two, Moneygram "seemed" the most interested in stopping fraud when a specific incidence was brought to their attention... Admittedly, they could just be training their reps to SOUND more concerned... I detest the "Not our problem, we got our cut" attitude...
While instituting more safeguards to prevent fraud is not going to be cheap, they could make it cost effective... a good PR spin perhaps... but it's business as usual, I'm afraid...

To close this post our job is to report every scam and to catch them is police job. It would be good to stop bring this post on top because some are trying to encourage people play "policeman" role and this may be dangerous for individuals.
