Default Re: swisscash scam

If anyone has any new evidences against Suntraders.com , please forward your findings to abuse@hivelocity.net .

Suntraders.com IP address is 206.51.237.69

Let Hivelocity the owner of the dedicated server provider which suntraders.com is hosted confront the account holders for clarification and if they find any wrongdoings, have them shut down the site and at least stop them from preying on innocent investors who already suffered a lot.

The more complain the better and at least get this scammer out of the face of the earth.

If they are proven real then great. Time is short so act fast.

I think it is very dangerous to give all info even a scan of IC!! What can it be happened as we give these personal info? For example, ST gets our personal banking data...etc...

Need other ppl's opinion!!

Offficers at banks told me before, even if anyone has your account number, they cant draw money out of it. the most they can do is deposit money into it, as long as your internet banking password is not given out to them. so if somehow they can hack into yr bank acc, that would be the bank faults.
as for the using our personal details to use in fake lottery winnings scams or kidnap scams,
personally i find that silly if one told u that u have to transfer some money for admins to claim your winnings, because everyone on earth should know that if u participate in any lottery draw n win, just go n claim your money. there isnt a need for admin fees in any lottery draw.
as for the so call kidnap scam i cant said much.

I know the lottery scam is silly and I would hang up the phone each time I get such a call but I read in the papers that hundreds of people both in Singapore and Malaysia forked out good money into those scam.

I mean put aside logics for one moment. Anyone who is foolish enough to believe all the Swisscash lies and now Suntraders lies are perfect candidates to be gullible enough to believe in anything. It is usually greed which gets the better of them and when greed sets in, logics goes out the windows.

Not everyone is capable of logical thinking. Some of the swisscash victims are already in a vulnerable stage and if there is even 1/10th of a percentage of hope, they would rather take the risk. If anyone offers them a chance to recover their losses, I am sure that there would be some who would jump at the chance no matter how irrational or how unbelievable some of the offerings are.

Well, sadly there was yet another victim in the Singapore's Sunday Times today about the same lottery scam.

Teacher loses $61,000 in lottery scam
Caller told her she had won $150,000; scammers then convinced her to send money for taxes and various fees
By Shuli Sudderuddin
ALL it took was an hour-long phone call from a stranger to convince a Singapore school teacher to transfer $5,500 to her.

Over the next two months, the teacher, in her 30s, even borrowed from friends and a bank to send over a total of $61,000.

All this because she believed she had won $150,000 in a Hong Kong lottery.

Now, the teacher, who wanted to surprise her family with the windfall only after she got it, is left hiding her losses from her husband.

She said: 'I'm terrified he will find out as it will really upset him and he is already burdened with supporting the family.' The couple have two young children, but she declined to give any other details about her family.

The teacher, who wanted to be known only as Ms Tan, is one of a rising number of Singaporeans who have been duped by lottery scams that originate in China and have also claimed victims in other countries.

Interpol has issued an advisory about such scams, warning people not to send any money or identification.

So far this year, 267 Singaporeans have been conned out of a total of $2.8 million, said the Singapore police. The amounts lost ranged from $6 to over $350,000.

Police spokesman Lim Tung Li said: 'Some scammers are so advanced that they refer victims to phonelines or websites with complex passwords. This fools victims into thinking they are legitimate and trustworthy.'

Despite numerous police warnings in the media lately, Ms Tan said she had not heard of the scams.

When a conwoman first made contact with her in early September, she said she was conducting a survey about mobile phone usage.

Later that month, a different caller informed her she had won $150,000 in a lucky draw organised by an electric company in Hong Kong. To claim the prize, she had to pay $5,500 in taxes.

The trickster spoke in a Chinese accent and broke down Ms Tan's initial wariness with her friendliness. Ms Tan spoke for an hour with her before she agreed to transfer the money.

Over the next four weeks, Ms Tan spoke with several people claiming to be from the same company.

They conjured up different reasons for her to part with more cash: The winning prize was to be paid out by a racing association and to claim the money, Ms Tan had to become a member.

Her initial fears were allayed because the callers were polite, confident and very convincing. 'They had an answer for every question I asked,' she said.

'When I asked why they had Beijing accents even though they were from Hong Kong, they told me Hong Kong had merged with China and many Chinese nationals worked there now.'

And when she asked why she was transferring money to a China bank when the callers were in Hong Kong, she was told the company's accountant was based there.

To continue meeting their demands, MsTan borrowed $16,000 from two friends and took a $21,000 loan from the bank at an interest rate of 17.9 per cent.

The rest of the money was from her personal savings. She reckoned it will take her up to five years to pay back all the loans.

'There are times when I want to cry, but I just put up a brave front for my family,' she said.'

Ms Tan insisted it was her trusting nature, not greed, that made her fall for the scam. 'I'm so trusting that I tend to believe what people tell me. This is my weakest point.'

Days after making a police report on Oct30, she received a phone call from yet another person claiming she had won a lottery.

Her first reaction was to wonder if this one was real too.

But she quickly dismissed the idea. 'I have learnt my lesson,' she said.
