The SCARS Institute Encyclopedia of Scams

Twelve Years of Data
For more than twelve years, scam victims and volunteers reported the phone numbers, email addresses, names, and profiles that scammers used against them on AnyScam.com. That work now lives here, as the SCARS Institute AnyScam Database, rebuilt to make it easier to search, safer to use, and open to new reports.
Before you trust someone you met online, search for their phone number, email address, name, or profile link. You’ll see whether it has been reported to SCARS Institute, how often, and when. You can also read real messages that scammers have sent, with victims’ details removed, so you can learn to recognize their words before they reach you.
Help Protect Others
If a scammer contacted you, report their profile link, email address, or phone number. SCARS Institute staff review every report before it appears in the database.
Please keep in mind that a listing is a report, not proof. Scammers steal real people’s names and photos, and phone numbers pass from one owner to the next, so an innocent person can appear here. If something listed here belongs to you and is listed in error, use the removal request form at the bottom of this page, and we’ll review it. And if nothing turns up in your search, that doesn’t mean someone is safe: scammers change their numbers, addresses, and names constantly.

Em uma breve introdução sobre mim mesmo, meu nome verdadeiro é Frank Deck, nascido em 24 de abril de 1968 em Barbados Caribbean Island. Eu sou originalmente de Barbados, Meus pais se mudaram para Manchester, Inglaterra, quando eu tinha 17 anos de idade. Eu estudei engenharia química na Universidade de Cambridge ...

Eu sou consultor de profissão; Sou especialista em exploração e fornecimento de petróleo e gás e faço a maioria dos contratos de importação. Também estou envolvido no gerenciamento de derramamento de óleo. Eu perdi meu pai E minha esposa morreu de câncer do sangue no ano de 2013, e ela deixou um lindo filho que tem 14 anos, seu nome é Bob, juntos moramos agora em Manchester onde eu trabalho. Eu sou 6'8ft tall, olhos castanhos, cabelos castanho cinzento e eu pesar 72 kg de peso.
A única coisa que me manteve indo é o meu filho, ele é minha espinha dorsal. Desde a morte da minha esposa o mundo se desmoronou, por muito tempo após a sua morte eu mantive minha vida muito pequena - trabalho, casa, muito pouco socializar e definitivamente sem namoro, simplesmente não estava pronto. Levei muito tempo para passar por aqueles dias

(He) War is very bad. I don't know why people don't understand this. Going about inflicting pain on innocent people, when you try to stop them, it leads to war.

(He) They are not in the US, it's a little bit complicated, my wife died of cancer and the family thinks I didn't do enough to save her. Till today I find it hard understanding that, I did everything possible, stayed by her side, took her to all the chemotherapy she had, took care of the baby, went to church, begged God to Save her for me but maybe he didn't hear my prayers, she died in my arms, if I could give life, I would have done that.
(He) It doesn't matter, you have the right to know me, I guess you are my friend and not a stranger, friendship entails knowing each other better. You have to know if I'm an alien or a robot too😂😂😂😂😂.
All I want is for her to be safe and happy, I owe her and her late mom that. Right now I think my daughter is safer with me, I can't think of losing her or having someone maltreat her, I won't be friendly with whoever tampers with her happiness.

Your payment has been receive, but there is Problem, When our diplomat got to the Airport as he was about Checking in the Custom saw the Box and wanted to know what is in it. Our diplomat told them that the Box contains Family Valuables but they insisted that they must check what is inside the box and he told them that the instruction given to him by the sender of the Box is that no one should open the Box until it gets to the Receiver`s Hand which is you. Now they delayed him and said that before he could fly with the Box to your country, he must provide them with a NON INSPECTION CERTIFICATE, that shows that the Box can not be scanned both here in the UK and also in your country`s Airport korea. So when he asked them how he can get the CERTIFICATE,they said they can provide him with the Certificate but it will cost the sum of $15,489 usd.(1,688,194.42JPY)
Our diplomat told them that he will contact with the Owner/Receiver of the Box and he will get back to them. They did not give him back the Box and they keep in their Store Room. But he said he has pleaded with them that they must not Scan through the Box and that he will ask is company to get back to them after contacting you as the owner of the box to get the Certificate so that he can deliver the box to you as soon as the payment is made.
We are sorry for the Inconvenience this might have cost you but i promise you that as soon as you have sort the payment out we will deliver the box to your door step as soon as possible.
Am waiting for your mail to know what to do later in the day, because I have very late from the airport just to make sure your package is safe please let me know what to do next when I get to the airport, I want to make sure you get your package yesterday of not for the inspection challenge
Good day waiting to hear from you please get back to me, because the box is at the airport
The package has not let Turkey because of the lack of inspection I ask you yesterday should they go ahead with the inspection so that we can deliver the box as fast as I can, remember i have made up my mind to assist you, and mind you, you don't have any issue with any custom because we are already in the process of delivery
we are your intermediary in this and we have been working for more than 19 years with different personalities we are in the best position to handle this, the way you are speaking you are infringing on our right, we can handle any situation as far its comes to delivery you make your payment so we can finish on this thank you
the package is still in Turkey not Korea we are just letting you know the root we are going to be transiting from which is Korea, you talk about evidence, evidence are only given to clients as recipients after payment I expect you to request for this after you have made the payment, and mind you I have never meant you but I choose to sacrifice my time to deliver to you because we have plenty of staff, you just give us the go ahead to inspect the box and send to you, because the tag on the box says that the box should not be inspected that it is going to be delivered diplomatically I believe you are aware about this
It seems you are uncomfortable with our service should they go ahead to inspect the box on Monday delivered to you by Monday just like that so that you won't make the payment again ?
Good day you see have not write you for some days because I am not even sure you are the owner of the box if not you won't have stock me down in this place, you are asking us to go and use EMS another courier company for a job we are handling this is very amazing, please I want you to write a letter for your money for the airway to be refunded to you and given us order to confiscate the box since you are no longer interested in your box thank you
This is an embarrassment to my person and to out office we have told you before that if you are no longer interested, write a letter of withdrawal so that we can terminate the process and refund money back to you, while we take possession of the box
