Another Dubai Based Bank Scammer Offering AED 66 Million Has Been Exposed
The world is well versed with scammers lurking around every corner in the cyber world, waiting just waiting, to either hijack your browser or hack your personal data via your CONFIDENTIAL bank account details.
One’s gotta be on high alert ALL the time in today’s highly tech-dependent age. Thus, why you should be extremely cautious before putting out your bank account details so that the info doesn’t get accessed by lurking fraudsters.
A number of international celebs, as well as residents, often receive calls and emails from anonymous entities posing to be from banks or large scale organisations in Dubai and entice them with a bucket sum of money before pinning them down for their personal details.
Another scamming technique was exposed when, a tweep, David Benjamin, took to Twitter to expose a cyber scammer who offered the USA resident 18 million dollars (AED66 Million) and claimed to be calling from a bank based in Dubai.
The scammer claimed to be a bank manager from a Dubai based bank and offered to split AED66 million with Benjamin
On the grounds that a man with the same surname as Benjamin had passed away with a loaded bank balance. Benjamin then called out the fraudster on Twitter and exposed his antics online.
Just got a follow from a fake Bank Manager In Dubai. Claimed he has $18 million left in an account from a man that died, with my same surname. He says he wants to split it with me if I give him my bank account number. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Other users soon responded with similar anecdotes of their own
Hi David, I always get that kind of message, even from people who have money from their deceased parents and who need a person like me because I seem to be good and that money is for a venture in my country. They ask me if I can answer soon to process the data 😀😂😂 😂😂

Ask him for his account number and you’ll pull down half the balance…
