Hello,

Compliment Of The Day.

I am seeking your assistance to evacuate the sum of (£12.5,000,000.00 GB Pounds) to the States or any safe country, as far as I can be assured that it will be safe in your care pending my arrival in your country for sharing and further investment in your Country.
Your cooperation is highly needed.

Yours Faithfully,
phil Mark.

Yeah I found that out once when getting a wire, my father who worked in banking told me be careful that there is no security if they have your account info for the wire it can go both ways. Scary shit.

You can't clear out my bank account with my wire information. If you could, it'd be covered up to the insurance limit anyway.

They ask you to transfer a few k to cover expenses and send you a draft which your bank accepts only to bounce a few days later.you are held accountable for everything.don't even think about those schemes.sadly many people fall for this crap

no, no, no, no and no. There's no more private information on your wire information than there is availabe on a personal check. Don't be ridiculous. Use your head, please.

Ya, I'm calling bullshit on that "they can pull it out with your wire info" thing.

ACH/Direct deposit...yes. That's the bitch about getting that set up with an employer, if they overpay you or decide they canned you earlier than they paid you commissions or whatever, it comes right back out. But wire info? Naaah...

This is what you need to wire someone:

Their Name.
Their Account Number
Their Address

Their Bank Name
Their Bank Address
Bank ABA
Bank Swift Code

The first three items are all on your personal checks.
The last 4 items you can get by calling the bank.

Once you bite to the spam, they'll start asking you for advances for fees they'll incur and that's where they make their money.

My buddy gave them his EX wife's info and they sent her a check of $6,000 to cover some fees and ask her to cash the check and send half back. She cashed the check, said fuck it and didn't send them anything, and spent the money. Two weeks later the check bounced.

Bullshit, they can't take anything from your account without your approval, if they can you are banking with the wrong bank


On a side note just ask for a western union transfer as you don't trust the banking sector when you hear something like that

haha... someone having your wire info ... can clean out your account? In many countries, account info is on company letterhead.

You people seriously make me want to join the Taliban. I am starting to see their side of things.
