Kuwait,custums.

[Mrs Daddy]

I know they`re very strick in kuwait but i have never experienced recieving packages.I think she has left with no choice but to pay the customs.Amazing how you abide their law but they themselves refuses to abide the law when they go abroad (well,some of them).

i'v just looked at my wifes emails, (naughty) but it seems like a very cleaver
scam, Googled his home Address and looked down his street, only small town houses and blocks of flats, so not very posh. sending iphones laptop,perfume,
gold neckless, 12 grand. lives in a flat,

then theres the customs email address. Malaysia she's working in Kuwait, wtf.

This is the area, he claims he's from.. Richmond, Surrey, but like I said before,
looks ordinary. small town house and flats. dont want to give his exact address over the net. seen the factory he claims to have, its massive. just don't add up. I've already sent email warning to wifes sis in Kuwait. shes waiting from him now.

Richmond is nice,the price of a small flat there will get you a detached three bed in the north,but forget this guy,its 100% a scam,no ones going to send all of those high value goods in a parcel,think about it,if somethings too good to be true it invariably is Also which businessman is stupid enough to stick £12,000 in a parcel?Doesnt add up.I phoned a number given to me a few years ago,lady was offered a job as a nanny in westminster,but she had to pay the guy 2 grand via western union?I phoned the number,it was a mobile,answered by a nigerian

Get his phone number from her and phone,under the pretext of saying "Hi"

my wife's just been chating to her, seems more and more like a scam.

he sent her pics of him and his daughter, that could be any one I told her.

shes crying on the phone to him, Ive no money to send the customs she says, he said i'am out of town, can't send any yet. you have two days to send the money.

oh what a scammer, two months he's been contacting her. she can't see through it, she emailed the document. iam going to download it.

I'm with u ... a scam

No-one sends that amount of cash in the post.
... and a gold necklace ? ... come on, get real !

One (possible) way to check ...
If it's true (which I doubt), he either sent by a courier company (DHL etc)
or by registered post.
Both provide a tracking number.
Ask him to provide it ..... and try & enter it into the relevant site.

In west africa,sometimes Ghana,sometimes Sierra Leone,but mostly Nigeria theres rooms filled with computers,guys "Work" there all day looking for lonely women,they always pretend to be caucasians,always pretend to be businessmen,and their objective is simply to extort money from ladies by fraudulent means,type Nigerian Scam into Google,your innundated with pages Even the church are in on it nowadays

I used to work with a guy,Nigerian,very smooth plausible sort of guy,I actually developed a decent rapport with him though he used to ruffle everyone elses feathers He dissapeared from the scene,I didnt see him for ages till one day there was a crime program on TV about a nigerian fraudster who had came here with nothing,and in 5 or 6 years had bought a palatial country mansion,I wasnt really watching the TV,it was just background noise till I heard the name of the guy being mentioned....................
