Having fun with scammers: Aisha Gaddafi (2012)

Example of scambaiting an “Advance fee SCAM” aka “419 Nigerian SCAM”. Been receiving over 100 such emails / month promising me million dollars, as lottery winning, inheritance, donation, etc.

I tried to have fun with one, a criminal who is pretending to be Aisha Gaddafi (daughter of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi killed on 20 October 2011), wants to relocate to “my country” without knowing where I am from, and will ship to me a box containing 16.5 million USD, allowing me to keep 30% of total sum for helping her escaping from Ghana. She is telling me to contact another person from criminal group pretending to be a lawyer, which I expected to ask me to pay few hundred dollars as shipping cost / insurance fee or whatever… but the fraud attempt had an unexpected turnout! Funniest parts in RED!

Note: between 2012 and 2015 been contacted by ~10 different scammers pretending to be Aisha Gaddafi or her lawyer. And based on messages received from people visiting my website, random criminals still use her name to scam people, making Ayesha Gaddafi one of the most impersonated celebrities in the world.

Dear friend,
Thanks for your prompt reply and readiness to help me achieve this transaction for the good of us all. I want you to know that I am presently on asylum in Ghana West Africa, living a low life because of the political instability in my country (Libya) which caused the death of my father and brothers.
This transaction is 100% real and risk free and will be carried out in a legal way just as I acquired the funds legally while serving my country during the days of my father as the president. The total amount is US$16.5M (sixteen million five hundred thousand United States Dollars) and I have packaged this money in one trunk box and shipped it out of Africa before the uprising in my country, the box containing the funds is presently in Dubai airport as transit cargo pending when I nominate my intended beneficiary, which am going to submit your info as the beneficiary as soon as we both agree.
For us to achieve this successfully, I will introduce you to the lawyer (Al Sharif Advocates) in Dubai who assisted me when the box arrive Dubai. He will guide you and procure the necessary formalities needed to see hitch free release and delivery of the funds to you in your nominated location in your country. I will discuss with the lawyer and advise him to contact you so you both can proceed and retrieve the deposit because any attempt to do it myself will alert the current opposition ruling government of my country, which have been searching everywhere freezing our family assets and I don’t want to mislay this very one that belong to me because it’s the only thing left for me to start a new life.
All I want you to do is to give me your full consent and support by updating me with your full names, direct contact address, telephone numbers, marital status, age and occupation. I will give you 30% of the total sum and you will also help me invest the remaining 70% under your care in your country so I can relocate and start a new life there. Kindly let me know the kinds of lucrative investment where we can divert these funds as soon as it gets to you?
I wish you all the best hoping to get your further updates as soon as possible. Attached is my photos for your view and record purposes.

Yours truly,
Aisha Ghadafi

You in Ghana? LOL… I was surprised since I Wikipedia says that you flew in Algeria and I saw your e-mail address ending in Philippines, now is ending in UK, LOL.
“help me invest the remaining 70% under your care in your country” …. WHICH country? Do you know where I live? or just contacting random people over internet in attempt to find another country to move in?
Are you giving me 4.95 million dollars? That would be incredible!

IMPORTANT NOTE: the Wikipedia says that Aisha Gaddafi flew to Algeria BUT she is currently living in Oman, the scammer forgot to state this detail (went to Oman then to Ghana)

LOL, how someone pretend to be Aisha Gaddafi the daugher of lybian president and selected me to transfer a large sum of money that probably she didn’t have, telling me to contact the lawyer at [email protected]

I’m gonna show the emails to you, maybe I will report her to someone else too!

IMPORTANT NOTE: I sent to the supposed lawyer a really stupid email, actually I forwarded all the above conversation with the supposed Aisha Gaddafi to the supposed lawyer, plus added the stupid message, and he still replied with seriosity. A real lawyer would ignore such messages.

Currently she (Aisha Ghadafi) is on asylum in West Africa due to the violent transition of government in their country; I am highly delighted for Mrs. Aisha Ghadafi’s mutual regards, and for directing you to me for the purpose of rendering my legal services to you concerning the deposited family treasure (Containing the funds) deposited with Dubai International Airport (Free Zone Department) to be transferred to you in your country.

I want you to understand that due to the nature of the deposited funds with the Dubai International Airport Free Zone as transit cargo, it’s mandatory that you must obtain the required documents in your name before the management can grant you access to the bonded warehouse for release/dispatch of the portfolio to you.
Furthermore I am ready and willing to give you my best services to obtain the required documents on your favor, but before I will commence on it, I will need us all to sign Trust and Investment Agreement – TIA that will guide us all in the business transaction just as I have discussed and made known to your partner (Mrs. Aisha Ghadafi).

I don’t have passport or driving license
I don’t have any religion, I can say atheist

Just google Teoalida to see my personal website and more about me

What’s next? I am curious where this scamming attempt will leads

NOTE: Even if I said “where this scamming attempt will leads”, he still reply, an unexpected reply!
Being adult 21+, I may had money and he could have tried to ask me an “advance fee”. Most likely, this was an attempt of identity theft. To use the photo of my passport in… something. I don’t understand in what he would need my religion too.

YOUNG MAN,

FROM YOUR AGE I DOUBT IF YOU CAN MEET UP WITH THE REQUIREMENT OF THIS TRANSACTION. THIS TRANSACTION WILL COST SOME UP FRONT PAYMENTS AND I WILL LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BRING THIS TO A POSITIVE REALITY.
INSTEAD OF WASTING OUR TIME, YOU HAVE TO CONNECT YOUR PARENTS OR ELDERLY ONES IF INDEED YOU ARE WILLING TO STAND AS MRS. AISHA’S PARTNER.

ALLAH BLESS US ALL.

Sorry for late reply
Your email went in my SPAM folder and I don’t check this folder everyday

So… what is the age requirement for this transaction? C’mon I am 18+, 21+ as I know that in some countries the drinking age is 21

I can talk with my parents, especially to my dad who is a police officer, but be sure that he have a better GIFT for you rather than paying any cent to you!
This is sooo oddd…. so far all seems to have same strategy, X plays the role of a rich person and sent me to Y who scam me with several hundred dollars promising to win several million dollars.
I have 3 email accounts, on each one I get about 5 such scam emails daily, at the first email I was confused if is real or not, but since I got more and more winning notices, I have no more doubts that these idiots are trying to scam people!
From where these scammers got my email????
If you try to steal other’s money what is the problem of wasting your time? I LOVE WASTING SCAMMERS TIME

Have a happy JAIL both you and fake Aisha Gaddafi too!!
