Dream to be millionaire got shattered

Synopsys: Dear Friend, Its not story, Its real thing happened with me right now. It was part of big web
spam targeting entrepreneur / businessman. I did tried to find some trace in google when I was getting
pulled, but not able to find any thing that can explain whole operation. So I though to narrate you all
events and details. That might help you to save your time and effort from getting trapped by these
spammers.

1st of all let me quickly introduce all the characters involved so it will be easy to understand whole story. All
the characters are true as introduced to me by email and calls.

Characters are

Mr Kumar : Its myself, a technocrat turned entrepreneur. Left job for entrepreneurship. Even after 5
years struggling for survival. Still high in moral and energy.

Frank : So called guy who started whole spam. He was intended to be my business partner for the deal.
He is suppose to be staying at UK.

Rudd: Purchase Manager of So called Watch making company chrome at Belgium.

Praveen Gopal : So called dealer of Quartz Stones based at Mumbai.

Deal : Purchase of precious and natural Quartz Stones of 98.8% clearity



3 Months Back: I got one email through one of reputed business directory portal probably
TradeIndia.com . One gentle man named Frank had a email stating he is looking to source some material
from india. He need help ( I deleted actual email so cant put actual transcript of email).

Being an entrepreneur and struggling for money thought not bad to give a try.

3 Week Back : Got another email from gentle man stating there is one watch making coming in Belgium,
2 year back he did purchased some precious natural quartz stone of 99.8% from some indian trader
through one of his Indian Partner say Late Mr Chadra. Profit margin is around 50%. Due to his poor
health he need a partner in executing this project.

I did send him reply, if its all legal then only I can help.

Thought I was suspicious from day one but thought to keep his entertaining until find modulus operandi
for the spam.

15 Days Back : Got the email with detailed business proposal

DEAR MR.KUMAR,

I THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SENDING ME THE QUOTATION WHICH THE LOCAL DEALER IN INDIA HAS
GIVEN TO YOU. THOUGH WE HAVE WASTED TIME TO GET THE QUOTATION SO WE HAVE TO FOLLOW
THINGS UP WITH THE COMPANY AS THEY ARE WORRIED BECAUSE OF THE DELAY. I HAVE ALSO
DELAYED IN RESPONDING TO YOU BECAUSE I WAS OUT OF MY HOUSE TO THE CLINIC WHERE I AM
TAKING TREATMENT. GOD IS IN CONTROL AS I AM GETTING RELIEVED AS THE DAY GOES BYE.


AS YOU CAN SEE,THERE IS NO MUCH DIFFERENCE FROM THE PRICE WE BOUGHT IT LAST IN LATE 2009
CHECKING FROM THE LAST ORDER WHICH I SENT TO YOU .

THIS MEANS THAT WE ARE IN FOR A GOOD BARGAIN. THEREFORE,I WOULD LIKE YOU TO COPY THE
PRICE QUOTATION WHICH I HAVE CLEARLY STATED ABOVE AND SEND IT TO THE BELGIUM COMPANY .
AFTER SENDING ,WE WILL WAIT FOR THEM TO ACCEPT / APPROVE YOUR QUOTATION AND ISSUE THEIR
OFFICIAL PURCHASE ORDER IN YOUR NAME AND ALSO CONFIRM THEIR DATE OF ARRIVAL.

THEN,YOU AND I WILL AGREE ON HOW TO SECURE THE MATERIALS AND WHEN I AM GOING TO ARRIVE
WHICH MUST BE FEW DAYS BEFORE THE ARRIVAL OF THE BELGIUM COMPANY. PLEASE TAKE CONTROL
OF YOUR SIDE AND NOT TO ALLOW OTHER PEOPLE TO HAVE IDEA OF THIS BUSINESS IN ORDER NOT TO
HIJACK IT FROM US. MY LATE PARTNER HAS TOLD ME THIS IN THE PAST THAT IT IS POSSIBLE TO
HIJACK THE BUSINESS FROM US IF WE DID NOT KEEP IT BETWEEN US ONLY. HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND
WHAT I AM TALKING.

I AWAIT YOUR URGENT RESPONSE AND CONTINUED UPDATES.

BEST REGARDS,

MAKIZU.

Subject : ABOUT COMPANY IMP AND PROCUREMENT OF MATERIALS IN INDIA
from Frank Umar umarconsultancy@gmail.com
date Sat, Jun 25, 2011 at 11:08 AM




DEAR MR.KUMAR,

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORTS SO FAR. YOU HAVE FOLLOWED THIS BUSINESS WELL ABOVE
MY EXPECTATION AS YOU ARE DOING IT WITH ME FOR THE FIRST TIME.

I AM ALSO HAPPY THAT THE COMPANY HAVE SENT THEIR IMP AND ORDER TERMS WHICH CONFIRMED
THAT THEY WANT TO COME TO INDIA SOON TO BUY 10KG MATERIALS AND 300 GRAMS SAMPLES. THEY
ALSO APPROVED THE SUPPLY AT THE RATE OF $40,000.00 USD PER KG WHICH IS VERY WELL IN OUR
ADVANTAGE AND TARGETED PROFITS.

THOUGH THIS QUANTITY THEY WANT NOW IS SMALL BUT THEY CONFIRMED THAT THEY WILL COME FOR
A BIGGER QUANTITY IN A SHORT POSSIBLE TIME. STILL,THE MONEY INVOLVED IS BIG AS I DO NOT HAVE
ENOUGH CASH AT THIS AS MY HEALTH HAVE NOT GIVEN ME THE SPACE TO SECURE FUNDS IN RECENT
TIME.BUT THAT IS NOT A PROBLE OR SOMETHING THAT WILL DERAIL OUR BUSINESS.

I DO NOT KNOW YOUR FINANCIAL BACK GROUND HENCE,I AM SUGGESTING THAT WE SUPPLY THE
MATERIALS IN BATCHES. BY THIS,I CAN EASILY RAISE CASH FOR 2KG MATERIALS . I WILL EXPECT YOU
TO RAISE CASH FOR 3KG MATERIALS AND 300 GRAMS SAMPLES. WITH THIS,WE WILL SUPPLY THEM
5KG MATERIALS IMMEDIATELY AFTER THEIR CONFIRMATION AND APPROVAL OF THE 300 GRAMS
SAMPLES. MODE OF PAYMENT MUST BE CASH ON DELIVERY. WHEN WE TAKE PAYMENT CASH ON
DELIVERY OF THE FIRST 5KG AND THE 300 GRAMS SAMPLES,WE WILL HAVE ENOUGH CASH WITH US
TO GET THE REMAINING 5KG MATERIALS AND WE CAN CONCLUDE THE SUPPLY WITHIN 1 DAY PENDING
THE TIME WE SUPPLY THE FIRST BATCH.

WE MUST AVOID ANYTHING THAT WILL MAKE THE LOCAL DEALER TO HAVE THE CONTACT OF THE
BELGIUM COMPANY AND THE BELGIUM COMPANY WILL NOT THE CONTACT OF THE LOCAL DEALER. AS I
HAVE TOLD YOU IN THE PAST,THE COMPANY WILL ALWAYS COME FOR THIS MATERIALS AND IF YOU
CONCLUDE THIS FIRST BUSINESS WELL WITH THEM WHEN THEY ARRIVE,THEY WILL BE ADVANCING
FUNDS TO YOU IN THE FUTURE TRANSACTIONS. THIS IS WHY WE MUST HOLD THIS BUSINESS TIGHT
FOR ME AND YOU ALONE.

THE COMPANY WILL COME TO CHECK,PAY AND TAKE THE MATERIALS AS DOMESTIC PURCHASE AND
WE WILL MAKE OUR PROFITS WITHOUT SHOUTING. I AM ALSO WORKING FOR A LONG BUSINESS AND
FAMILY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU HENCE,I EXPECT YOU TO HAVE AN OPEN MIND WITH ME NOW AND IN
THE FUTURE.

I HAVE TRIED TO CALL YOU BUT THE NUMBER IS NOT GOING THROUGH, BUT I WILL CONTINUE TO TRY
AS IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE TALK ABOUT THIS ISSUE. YOU CAN AS WELL CALL ME ON ANY OF MY
NUMBER TODAY.

FINALLY,I WANT YOU TO WRITE TO THE COMPANY AND ACCEPT THEIR IMP AND ORDER TERMS. TELL
THEM TO ISSUE THEIR OFFICIAL PURCHASE ORDER IN YOUR NAME AND CONFIRM THEIR DATE OF
ARRIVAL TO ENABLE YOU PACKAGE THE MATERIALS BASED ON THE QUANTITY THEY HAVE REQUIRED
AS YOU HAVE THE MATERIALS AT THIS TIME.

I AWAIT YOUR URGENT RESPONSE.

BEST REGARDS,

MAKIZU.

4 Days Back:

Was good active day : As soon as I got this order email, I got call from Mumbai guy (so far he was very
hostile) but now became proactive. He called saying going to rajasthan for a week. So in case need
sample have to pay for 300 gm sample (That’s around 2.5 Lakhs).

“So it was decision of 2.5 Lakh investment vs 60 Lakh profit in week time.”

4 Day back Continue…I did few follow-up with Praveen to get his office address..

Gopal messaged me
Gopal Enterprises……

4th floor 36, Next to Shabazkar Dental Clinic,

Maker tower, Colaba, Mumbai-400 005

I did check at google map as well as google. Was not able to find any trace but logicked myself, its quite
possible Mumbai is too big for crore deals. Maker tower Colaba is nice, close to sae, Very good location
for all these type of deals specially you can see in Hindi movie.



Then was a call from so called Rudd purchase manager from customer company stating he will be
visiting Mumbai on 30th. He is coming through Singapore to Mumbai……

He explained how deal will take place.

As bank is not cooperating in Foreign exchange, he is going to have cash deal. He tied up with Embassy.
He is going to bring $, and embassy has made arrangement with Indian bank to convert to Rupees. So for
us its just going to be a local domestic Deal.

3 Days Back : Call and email from dream partner

On 27th Night I got a call from my dream new partner that he sent by email again so thought to put the
email content,

Subject : ABOUT THE ARRIVAL OF THE BELGIUM COMPANY
From : Frank Umar umarconsultancy@gmail.com

date      Mon, Jun 27, 2011 at 9:12 PM



DEAR MR.AJEET,

THANK YOU FOR TAKING MY CALLS TODAY. THANK YOU ALSO FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND
CONTINUED TO DO IN OUR BUSINESS . YOU HAVE PERFOMED ABOVE MY EXPECTATION IN THIS
BUSINESS AS YOU ARE DOING THIS FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE CORDINATION WHICH YOU HAVE PUT
INTO THIS IS VERY LARVELOUS AND MUST BE CONSILIDATED NOW AND IN THE FUTURE.

THE COMPANY HAVE SENT THEIR OFFICIAL PURCHASE ORDER AND CONFIRM THEIR DATE OF ARRIVAL
WHICH WILL BE ON THE 30TH OF THIS MONTH. I AM EXTEEMNLY HAPPY ABOUT THIS DEVELOPMENT
WHICH WONT HAVE BEEN EASY WITHOUT YOUR SUPPORT.

I AM PRAYING THAT WE CONCLUDE THIS AS PLANED FOR YOU TO KNOW ALL ABOUT THE BUSINESS SO
AS TO KNOW HOW TO HANDLE THE FUTURE BUSINESS. AS I SAID OVER THE PHONE,I HAVE CONCLUDED
PLANS WITH ONE BEURAU DE CHANGE OFFICE HERE IN LIVERPOOL. I WILL GIVE THEM CASH HERE
WHICH THEY CAN EASILY PAY INTO THE ACCOUNT OF THE LOCAL DEALER IN MUMBAI IN LOCAL INDIA
CURRENCY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE COMPANY CONFIRM /APPROVE THE 300 GRAMS SAMPLES.

WHEN THEY CONFIRM THE RECEIPT OF THE FUND FROM MY SIDE IN THEIR ACCOUNT,YOU WILL THEN
MOVE TO THEM WITH YOUR CASH OF 3KG MATERIALS AND GET THE TOTAL FIRST 5KG AND SUPPLY TO
THE COMPANY AND TAKE YOUR INSTANT CASH ON DELIVERY. THIS IS VERY SIMPLE AND I AM SURE
THAT YOU ARE CAPABLE OF HANDLING THE BUSINESS THERE WITHOUT MY PRESENT AND I AM
TRUSTING AND BELEIVING GOD THAT YOU WILL NOT LET ME DOWN NOW AND IN THE FUTURE.

MY DOCTORS WANT TO MONITOR MY ILL HEALTH FOR 2 WEEKS BEFORE I CAN BE CLEARED TO TRAVEL
TO SUCH A LONG DISTANCE. BUT THAT IS NOT GOING TO DELAY OR STOP OUR BUSINESS. THIS IS
ALONG TERMS BUSINESS OF YOU HANDLE IT WELL WITHOUT ESPOSING IT TO THE OTHER PEOPLE
THERE. BUT THANK GOD YOU HAVE ASSURED ME THAT YOU WILL TAKE CONTROL OF THINGS THERE
WHEN THE COMPANY PURCHASING MANAGER ARRIVE. I WILL ALSO BE ON PHONE WITH YOU ON THAT
DAY TO ADVISE YOU FROM TIME TO TIME. THE COMPANY HAS ALL YOUR DETAILS AND WILL CONTACT
YOU WHEN THEY ARRIVE IN UMBAI SO ALL IS WELL.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE BUSINESS,I WILL SEND YOU A LETTER OF INVITATION WHICH YOU WILL USE
TO GET AN ENTRY VISA TO UK SO THAT YOU CAN COME TO MY HOME AND KNOW ME AND MY FAMILY
VERY WELL. MAYBE I WILL THEN FOLLOW YOU BACK TO YOUR CITY TO KNOW YOUR FAMILY WELL.

AS I SAID ON PHONE,THE COMPANY WILL BE ADVANCING FUNDS TO YOU IN THE NEXT TRANSACTIONS
IF YOU REALLY HANDLE THEM WELL WHEN THEY ARRIVE WHICH I AM NOT DOUBTING YOUR ABILITY TO
HANDLE THEM WELL.

FINALLY,IF YOU CALL ME AND I DID NOT PICK MY CALL OR MY CALL IS SWITCHED OFF,YOU KNOW THAT I
AM IN THE CLINIC AS THEY DO NOT ALLOW ME TO HAVE MY PHONE AROUND ME DURING MY
TREATMENT IN THE HOSPITAL.BUT I MUCT SURELY CALL YOU TO KNOW THE UPDATES FROM TIME TO
TIME.

I AWAIT YOUR URGENT RESPONSE.

BEST REGARDS,

MAKIZU,



3 days Back Continue …It was test time and there was pressure from all the 3, Praveen, Frank and
Rudd.

I did asked one of my friend at Mumbai to verify if office address provided by Praveen is valid

My friend sent his guy to search the office and found that this office was not existing. I sent a text email to
Praveen stating give me your right address. He called me next day stating… address is right but its
tough to reach unless you call me. I told my guy called you many times. He told he don’t pickup unknown
number call.

By now I was having good clarity about there strategy. Probably they were looking to get 2.5 Lakh from
me on the name of samples and disappear or might have bigger game for rest 3 KG material i.e around
21 Lakhs.

2 Days Back..Then I thought to change strategy and I asked Frank to deposit money to My account
rather sending to dealer. Probably he sensed, his game is over and then he stopped sending emails and
making called.

Just for followup I sent another couple of email to Frank but still waiting for there response.
Dear Mr Frank

One of my friend visited today to local dealer office. But office was not traceble.
I got another well reputed good dealer today. Just now my brother had meeting with them. They are much better than
old ones.
They are ready to be with samples on 30th.

Dear Mr Frank

Just missed another point. I don't think it is appropriate for you to transfer money to dealer account. If dealer will
know about you, quite possible we might loose bargain power with them.
Rather i will suggest you to deposit money to my account that too will be better if can do now. It will help us to get
good bargain. As far as quality is concerned, as per our agreement with supplier, we can return it with in 48 hrs
without any loos, if material is rejected due to quality issue.

Please be assured, your money is fully protected.
As its going to be big cash deal, one of senior most officer will be on duty for protection.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Dear Mr Frank,

So far i am yet to receive any communication from you. Please note, i will consider all this communication and
exercise as spam unless you deposit 2 KG material money in my account by today.

Its good to know that so called Gopal Traders neither have any permanent office nor have any office members.
Though i got another suppliers with samples material ready.

Either way, it was very good and interesting plot. If you think i have understood it wrong, please deposit $ 45000 in
my account immediately.




No response so far so you can see how my dream to be quick millionaire got shattered.

Any how you guys can understand how tough is to bear if your deam to be millionaire gets crushed like
this. But still I thought to share all of you, because its much better than loosing your hard earned money to
those cheat.



I believe though I lost opportunity to be millionaire in the deal but this article can help me to be popular
among millionaires.

He called saying going to rajasthan for a week. So in case need sample have to pay for 300 gm sample (That’s around 2.5 Lakhs). “So it was decision of 2.5 Lakh investment vs 60 Lakh profit in week time.” 4 Day back Continue…I did few follow-up with Praveen to get his office address.. Gopal messaged me
  • 11. Gopal Enterprises…… 4th floor 36, Next to Shabazkar Dental Clinic, Maker tower, Colaba, Mumbai-400 005 I did check at google map as well as google. Was not able to find any trace but logicked myself, its quite possible Mumbai is too big for crore deals. Maker tower Colaba is nice, close to sae, Very good location for all these type of deals specially you can see in Hindi movie. Then was a call from so called Rudd purchase manager from customer company stating he will be visiting Mumbai on 30th. He is coming through Singapore to Mumbai…… He explained how deal will take place. As bank is not cooperating in Foreign exchange, he is going to have cash deal. He tied up with Embassy. He is going to bring $, and embassy has made arrangement with Indian bank to convert to Rupees. So for us its just going to be a local domestic Deal. 3 Days Back : Call and email from dream partner On 27th Night I got a call from my dream new partner that he sent by email again so thought to put the email content, Subject : ABOUT THE ARRIVAL OF THE BELGIUM COMPANY From : Frank Umar umarconsultancy@gmail.com date Mon, Jun 27, 2011 at 9:12 PM DEAR MR.AJEET, THANK YOU FOR TAKING MY CALLS TODAY. THANK YOU ALSO FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE AND CONTINUED TO DO IN OUR BUSINESS . YOU HAVE PERFOMED ABOVE MY EXPECTATION IN THIS BUSINESS AS YOU ARE DOING THIS FOR THE FIRST TIME. THE CORDINATION WHICH YOU HAVE PUT INTO THIS IS VERY LARVELOUS AND MUST BE CONSILIDATED NOW AND IN THE FUTURE. THE COMPANY HAVE SENT THEIR OFFICIAL PURCHASE ORDER AND CONFIRM THEIR DATE OF ARRIVAL WHICH WILL BE ON THE 30TH OF THIS MONTH. I AM EXTEEMNLY HAPPY ABOUT THIS DEVELOPMENT WHICH WONT HAVE BEEN EASY WITHOUT YOUR SUPPORT. I AM PRAYING THAT WE CONCLUDE THIS AS PLANED FOR YOU TO KNOW ALL ABOUT THE BUSINESS SO AS TO KNOW HOW TO HANDLE THE FUTURE BUSINESS. AS I SAID OVER THE PHONE,I HAVE CONCLUDED PLANS WITH ONE BEURAU DE CHANGE OFFICE HERE IN LIVERPOOL. I WILL GIVE THEM CASH HERE WHICH THEY CAN EASILY PAY INTO THE ACCOUNT OF THE LOCAL DEALER IN MUMBAI IN LOCAL INDIA CURRENCY IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE COMPANY CONFIRM /APPROVE THE 300 GRAMS SAMPLES. WHEN THEY CONFIRM THE RECEIPT OF THE FUND FROM MY SIDE IN THEIR ACCOUNT,YOU WILL THEN MOVE TO THEM WITH YOUR CASH OF 3KG MATERIALS AND GET THE TOTAL FIRST 5KG AND SUPPLY TO THE COMPANY AND TAKE YOUR INSTANT CASH ON DELIVERY. THIS IS VERY SIMPLE AND I AM SURE THAT YOU ARE CAPABLE OF HANDLING THE BUSINESS THERE WITHOUT MY PRESENT AND I AM
  • 12. TRUSTING AND BELEIVING GOD THAT YOU WILL NOT LET ME DOWN NOW AND IN THE FUTURE. MY DOCTORS WANT TO MONITOR MY ILL HEALTH FOR 2 WEEKS BEFORE I CAN BE CLEARED TO TRAVEL TO SUCH A LONG DISTANCE. BUT THAT IS NOT GOING TO DELAY OR STOP OUR BUSINESS. THIS IS ALONG TERMS BUSINESS OF YOU HANDLE IT WELL WITHOUT ESPOSING IT TO THE OTHER PEOPLE THERE. BUT THANK GOD YOU HAVE ASSURED ME THAT YOU WILL TAKE CONTROL OF THINGS THERE WHEN THE COMPANY PURCHASING MANAGER ARRIVE. I WILL ALSO BE ON PHONE WITH YOU ON THAT DAY TO ADVISE YOU FROM TIME TO TIME.

I AWAIT YOUR URGENT RESPONSE. BEST REGARDS, MAKIZU, 3 days Back Continue …It was test time and there was pressure from all the 3, Praveen, Frank and Rudd. I did asked one of my friend at Mumbai to verify if office address provided by Praveen is valid My friend sent his guy to search the office and found that this office was not existing. I sent a text email to Praveen stating give me your right address. He called me next day stating… address is right but its tough to reach unless you call me. I told my guy called you many times. He told he don’t pickup unknown number call. By now I was having good clarity about there strategy. Probably they were looking to get 2.5 Lakh from me on the name of samples and disappear or might have bigger game for rest 3 KG material i.e around 21 Lakhs. 2 Days Back..Then I thought to change strategy and I asked Frank to deposit money to My account rather sending to dealer. Probably he sensed, his game is over and then he stopped sending emails and making called. Just for followup I sent another couple of email to Frank but still waiting for there response.
  • 13. Dear Mr Frank One of my friend visited today to local dealer office. But office was not traceble. I got another well reputed good dealer today. Just now my brother had meeting with them. They are much better than old ones. They are ready to be with samples on 30th. Dear Mr Frank Just missed another point. I don't think it is appropriate for you to transfer money to dealer account. If dealer will know about you, quite possible we might loose bargain power with them. Rather i will suggest you to deposit money to my account that too will be better if can do now. It will help us to get good bargain. As far as quality is concerned, as per our agreement with supplier, we can return it with in 48 hrs without any loos, if material is rejected due to quality issue. Please be assured, your money is fully protected. As its going to be big cash deal, one of senior most officer will be on duty for protection. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dear Mr Frank, So far i am yet to receive any communication from you. Please note, i will consider all this communication and exercise as spam unless you deposit 2 KG material money in my account by today. Its good to know that so called Gopal Traders neither have any permanent office nor have any office members. Though i got another suppliers with samples material ready. Either way, it was very good and interesting plot. If you think i have understood it wrong, please deposit $ 45000 in my account immediately. No response so far so you can see how my dream to be quick millionaire got shattered. Any how you guys can understand how tough is to bear if your deam to be millionaire gets crushed like this. But still I thought to share all of you, because its much better than loosing your hard earned money to those cheat. I believe though I lost opportunity to be millionaire in the deal but this article can help me to be popular among millionaires.
