That lady Edit, supposedly Budapest ex-mayor wife, contacted me following an ad that I put in For Sale by Owners in order to sell my property in Cancun, Mexico. to make her look very honest, she sent me an article about her husband (frauds), claiming they were honest. Living in Mexico, it is very possible that an innocent person be in jail and their accounts blocked. So I was willing to believe her. She called me, and gave me her phone number, also sent me copies of an expired passport and valid driver license from Ontario, Canada. She emailed me almost daily. At a moment, she told me her husband had a lot of money in cash in a safe box in Amsterdam and put me in touch with this man Paul Lang. He emailed me and called me several times. For "confidentiality purposes" he refused to give me any information about his company, and told me I had to go to Amsterdam and pay for my trip + USD32,000 to open the box. When I said I didn't have this money, he told me "his clients are wealthy enough to pay for that". Edit sent me a "certificate of deposit" without any amount nor my name. When I said it was out of the question, she said she had a friend who could retrieve the money for me. His name is Zeid Ahmad Sayaad. He also emailed me several times, stating that I needed to ""send a letter to the Fiduciary in his name saying he is now the new beneficiary, relinquishing the consignment in order to help the poor family. Of course I didn't accept to do that. Then she found out that her husband had an account in UK, and put me in touch with the "banker" Morgan Swank, from Allied Bank. He gave me his phone number and we talked several times. All phone numbers worked. He told me I had to open an account there and wanted me to send 5,000GPB through Western Union to his name. I really need to sell my property and with the crisis I didn't have any other client (still don't). I said NO WAY. He told me I could sent the maximum I can, so I accepted to send 10,000 pesos (+fees). IF it was real, I would sell my property. If not, well.... I lost so much money in this country with scams and corruption, that would be just a bit more. To open the account, they asked me to send a copy of my passport. But they asked me for more money. I said NO WAY again. the banker gave me 2 phones numbers I could call with a password to enter, I did and an answering machine told me an account in my name (my real name) was open and I had almost 1 million GPB in it (they gave me the exact amount but I don't remember). I called the bank Allied Bank, whose main office is in Pakistan, but they have a branch in London. I called them, they told me that Morgan Swank was unknown. Now I asked for precise information about the account, his position in the bank, what branch, and I have no answer (just outside of London). He told me yesterday that if I didn't trust him I had to "go down there" Oh yes, I am 7,000 miles away!!! Edit still emails me, claiming she broke her wrist and can type. So, it is obvious it is a ripoff. Since I sent a copy of my passport, they have all my information, so I needed to alerts all the authorities and I need to ask for a new passport (2 trips to mexico-City + the price of the passport)
