Massive import related and credit card fraud from Africa

09/11/2004
It seems African criminals are focusing on international manufacturing and export companies in two ways. Firstly by pressuring exporters for free samples to be sent to various countries around Africa and secondly by trying to use stolen credit card numbers to pay for these goods. The criminals often use a billing or contact address in Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Spain or Denmark, all countries known to have large African immigrant communities.

Exporters are advised to exercise extreme caution when dealing with the African continent due to the fact that over 95% of fraud reports to ExportBureau are the result of transactions with African criminals.

One of them is my relative and he just spoke to me yesterday regarding LTTE activities in London, esp Wembley!


So you're telling us that this lawyer relative of yours is a total scum bag and should be disbarred? Since he seems to be having pillow talk with you on confidential matters that should be legally protected?

Dont worry. The UK police are not gonna act. You also dont panic like tamilselvam. Wut i knw is 100% true! You dont have to beleive it.

LTTE are heavily involved in this but the UK police are finding it extremely difficult to crack the network and have no solution planned. Ok i'll reveal this much, the main reason they cannot catch them is cos the ones involved have several identities! The UK police very well know this and who is behind it and 2 days ago there was a top level meeting in London and no Sri Lankan Embassy personel was present at the meeting. The news which hit the papers today may be as a result of the meeting and SL embassy is trying to create awareness.

My relative gave me details about wuts happening and not details about his clients which are confidential.

Maybe he is a scumbag cos he gets these LTTE losers out of prison.
