SCAM presented on CGTrader
Discussion started by vitor-ecasquinha-costa
Hi there to all, like you i'm a CGTrader user, i use it to sell products and to also buy. I was contact by someone that supposedly named Kristle Gary. it's a scam! i'm leaving all information here to help everyone with this.
These are the facts and my analysis:
1. If the email is trustworthy, why she didn't sent it from the bank email account, since either the bank or the governament don't care about the money?
2. There are alot of holes in the information presented.
3. She says that sent the bank ID attached in the email, there is no ID attached.
4. After analyze the email headers, the email was sent from ireland and not france.
5. The "principal treasury officer" is not called Kristle Gary
6. The is no more information about this on media
7. Why the value is in dollars, if we are talking between portugal and france, and both countries use Euro?
This was the email:
Dear friend,
How are you and how is your family? I thank you for your response. I am Mrs Kristle Gary from United States of America, but i am presently working and living in France with my husband. I am principal treasury officer with BLOM BANK France. I have decided to contact you through this medium based on a business proposal, which will be of mutual benefit to both of us. I know this might sound strange to you, but I assure you that this will workout for us. I have attached my bank ID in this mail.
I am the account manager to one of our late customer, the deceased customer is from your country, he worked with an oil servicing company here in France, the late client made a numbered time (fixed) deposited for twelve calendar months, valued at $10,200,000.00 (Ten Million Two Hundred Thousand American Dollar) in my branch. Upon maturity, we sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply.
After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, VALLOUREC OIL and GAS company that my client died from an automobile accident. On further investigation, I found out that he did not leave a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless. I therefore made further investigation and discovered that the deceased person did not declare any next of kin in all his official documents, including his bank deposit paperwork.
This sum of ($10,200,000.00) is still sitting in the bank and the interest is rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one has come forward to claim it. According to the law of France, at the expiration of 10{TEN} years, the money will be reverted to France government if nobody claims it.
Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin to deceased person for the fact that you have same last name with him so that this money will not be reverted by the government. If this request matches with your inward intention for success and greatness, then you are urged to make a quick response indicating your interest and readiness to participate and work with me to make this successful.
Please observe utmost confidentiality and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country. In your return mail, please do forward your information as listed below if you are willing to complete this transaction with me, to enable me put the total fund in your name for claim as the next of kin to the deceased person. I have attached my passport in this mail so that you will know whom you are dealing with in this transfer, ensure that you send the below detail so that we can proceed:
Your complete names:
Your contact address:
Your phone number:
Occupation:
Your age:
I wait for your urgent reply.
Regards,
Mrs Kristle Gary
PS:
CGTrader, please, review the bullet list on editor, because i tried to use to enumerate, and didn't work.
best regards,

Why doesn't she use at least another name? She's not only on CGTrader, I had this email today from BlenderMarket inbox:
"Hello
I Mrs Kristle Gary and I wish to speak with you about a business which I desire to actualize with you. To further explore this possibility, I would like you to contact me via my email address to give you a brief description of my field of work and the project idea.

I responded to her email but then googled her name and this discussion popped up.

I got the same email
Greetings,
My sincere apology if the contents of this message do not meet your personal quirks. I was happy when i saw your profile. Please the reason I contacted you is because of our deceased customer who I presumed to be your relative because of the similarities in your last names and most importantly because he was also from your country. He happened to be one of the high profile personalities I have worked for while he was an investor with our bank.In 2003 he came to our bank here in France to engage in business discussions with a financial portfolio of €10.2 million which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf. I was the officer assigned to his case. We turned the money around various opportunities and made attractive margins for our first years of operation.
In mid-2005, he asked that the money be liquidated for onward transfer because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments. I undertook all the processes and have the fund liquidated, and that was the last time we heard from him. I did everything humanly possible to track him down all to no avail, and since he listed no next of kin in his bio-data form, I have no one to contact. It was few years after his surprise disappearance that I stumbled upon the Venezuela plane crash manifest where I discovered he actually died with his family in the aforementioned plane crash on Tuesday, 16th of August 2005.
There is €10.2 Million plus the accrued interest abandoned in our bank all these years and now my worst nightmare is about to happen as the bank want to revert the funds back into our treasury as unclaimed and abandoned monies inline with our bank policy. What need to be done now is for me to insert your name from our system into his file as the heir and successor to the portfolio, and once that is done the money automatically become yours, after-which I will guide you with information(s) and furnish you with documents to prove your right to the funds, and have the funds release to you as the rightful and legal heir.
Please understand that I am basically aware it is not easy to trust anyone these days, but when I saw your profile you seem like someone with some level of sensitivity, wisdom and intelligence as such I expect you to see beyond the above-listed elements and envisage a fortuitous prospect in this divine blessing. In fact, i do not really care if he is your relative or not, the most important thing is because of similarities in your names. I know there are millions of people with same surname, but grace found you. I was happy to see your profile and i want us to work like a family to achieve this goal. The deceased is from your country and it will be so painful if the fund of the deceased is confiscated.
I am a family woman and this is an opportunity to keep something aside for my family after retirement. It is my responsibility to present relative of the deceased. There is a reward for this project and it is a task well worth undertaking. I have evaluated the risks and the only risk I foresee here is from you, refusing to work with me and alerting my bank or mistake this proposal for something else or hoax, otherwise wealth is just around the corner for you and I to grab. I will inform you how to execute this transfer in your next e-mail.
Remain bless as I await your response.
Thank You
Mrs Gary Kristle
