Wow, months after the African Puppy Scam I get another one over the weekend.
Started off with a simple email requesting a quote in print price…
Hello Sir/Madam,
My name is Rev James Hopper and i want to make an order of SOME FLYERS .I will like you to get back to me as soon as you with the pick up price of the following models and sizes;
1. measures 8.5′ x 11′
2. 80# Gloss Text or
3. 0.25 – White boarder
4. One sided
Please provide a quote on 98,500 copies
l want you to write of the flyer (Love One Another).I want you to go ahead and quote me the total pick up prices plus tax without shipping and will also like you to get back to me with information on the major credit card you accept for payment and how soon can you get that ready for pick up as i have a shipping company that will come for the pick up as soon as they are ready. also get back to me with your contact phone number and full name so we can proceed.
James Hopper.
So, I responded with a few questions and here is the response…
i will like to inform you that this will be black only and will like you to get back to me with the total cost and will also like to know if you accept credit card for payment and how soon can you get that ready for pick up.
so I gave a quote for the job and this is the hook response I got.
Thanks for the quote..
But it is unfortunate to inform you that I have a family emergency,(my wife just had an accident)and I will be on the next available flight to Germany but I won't be back till further notice.Meanwhile this order is to be delivered to a church in Ghana,West-Africa.
So I would like you to contact the Freight Company with the approximate weight of the order and your address and get me the freight charges for delivering the order to the address below:
Rev. Matthew Banson
( World Miracle Church )
352 Lemon St.
Accra, Ghana,00233
West-Africa.
Freight Company Contact Details:
COMPANY NAME:Melcome Shipping Company.
EMAIL ADDRESS:Bulkshippers@hotmail.com
i will like you to go ahead and contact them and get back to me as soon as you can so i can provide you with my credit card information for you to go ahead and run that for the Grand total of the order plus shipping so we can proceed.. also let me know as soon.
May God Bless You
JAMES HOPPER
How great, using religious titles like Rev. makes scamming people all that much better.
Now, a couple of things really got me interested, first the quick swerve on the emergency, can’t pick the job up, have to ship it to Ghana, West Africa.
Then I did a lookup on where the email originated from, after all its a yahoo.com email address right? Email came from an internet cafe in West Africa… Interesting, considering the person is supposedly able to pick up the printing.
I still don’t know what the angle was here? Credit card fraud? Free printing? A staged scam to get the printer to pay to clear customs on the promise the client would pay us back?
Anyway, don’t know, but a simple reply saying we don’t ship internationally seemed to qwell the scammer.
Net of it all is beware online, do your homework and don’t get scammed. Also, use google, and you will find links like this http://bizcardpro.com/PrintingScam.htm
Hopefully no body gets dupped by this scam.
Actually, what happens is that they provide bogus credit card numbers, you run them, but it takes a few days for the cards to process. But, in the meantime, you need to wire the money via Western Union to the freight company. By the time you have wired the money, the credit cards have been declined and you’re out whatever money you wired to them.
Actually we got this same email.
They even gave us 2 credit cards to run.
This is crazy.
Hello,
Thank you for your article. I am actually in the midst of trying to be scammed by this guy. Just a coincidence, my husband works for PIA/GATF. I am hoping to work through them to get the word out.
Fortunately; I took time his afternoon to research his guy before any money transactions have occurred. The owner of my company wants to nail this guy.
He contacted us via email wanting a price for printing 98,500 fliers on 80# coated stock
And, oh of course ,at the beginning of this it all became urgent because he had to leave the country because his wife was in an accident in Germany.
…… virtually the same story and same exact email that you received. I became suspicious when I received a low resolution jpeg for artwork to base my quote on. Its a poorly designed picture of a Nativity scene with knockout type advertising a “Eshter Crusade with many Quest speakers”. A reverand that can’t spell Easter or Guest correctly deeply disturbed me & raised my suspicions. It also doesn’t give dates etc….
Starts out they will pick up from our location, wants to know the weight for shipping. Then I had to contact the Gold Coast Shipping Co. for the cost of shipping to Accra, Ghana, West Africa. Of course they want the payment via Western Union Wire Transfer …… Once I gave them the grand total of printing & shipping they were supposed to give me their credit card # for us to make arrangements for shipping & payment. I indicated that he needed ot pay us in advance as well. He then asked me to tack on an additional $300.00 to the grand total to cover the costs of the wire transfers.
He has contacted me via a 3rd party service for deaf people 2 X’s today.
Before I left work today, I decided to contact this Gold Coast Shipping Company. Looks legitimate on the web but then when I called to confirm the price quote I found that it is not legitimate. The call sounds as if it is a private residence. A gentleman who answered the phone was caught totally off guard. He just answered Hello not “Gold Coast Shipping Co.” I asked for the man who sent me the bid on shipping & was told “He must work for another Gold Coast Shippping Company”. I asked what his Co. does. he stated that they ship /export overseas. Sounds very much like they do the kind of shipping that was being requested. Interesting. I think this guy is in on it. He sounded shady.
Unbelievable!!!!
This stinks and I would love to help to put an end to it. I’ll keep you informed on how this unfolds.
I am very grateful to not have fallen for this.Thanks for posting your experience.
Truly yours,
Alexis
Mine is a Rev John Carter, 100,000 business cards that say Bama Top Tech, and email and phone number, he paid via credit card,and it was approved, but nothin was passing the smell test, so I called my merchant services and got he issuing bank info and found that he was not the authorized signer, I told him it was declined and since he has given me 7 more card numbers and each time I call the issuing banks and alert them to his fraud.
I’ve been in contact with a Mark Adams who seems to fit the same bill. He needed 300 trophies that say save the children for an orphanage. I gave him his quote, then he suddenly had to got see his uncle in Germany, his wife was also not doing well. They had me contact BW Shipping company via e-mail only (@gmail.com).
The letter:
Hello _____ ,
Thanks for the quote.Am Satisfied with the price…Sorry for the delay responce
But it is unfortunate to inform you that I have a family emergency,(my Uncle just had an accident)and I will be on the next available flight to Germany but I won’t be back till further notice.Mean while this order is to be delivered to a church in Ghana,West-Africa.
So I would like you to contact the Freight Company with the approximate weight of the order and your address and get me the freight charges for delivering the order to the address below:
Rev. Matthew Banson
(World Miracle Church)
352 Lemon St.
Accra,Ghana,00233
West-Africa.
Freight Company Contact Details:
COMPANY NAME:B W shipping
EMAIL ADDRESS:bwshippinginc@gmail.com
i will like you to go ahead and contact them and get back to me as soon as you can so i can provide you with my credit card information for you to go ahead and run that for the Grand total of the order plus shipping so we can proceed.. also let me know as soon.
Respectfull Submitted,
Mr.Mark

Afterdiscovering the similarities in the writing patterns of the shipping manager and my client (they contacted me on the same day 7 minutes apart) I knew it was the same guy. Unfortunately they never answered any questions about where they are contacting me from and never left any contact infomation other than an e-mail address.
Luckily it hasn’t cots me too much in materials I prepared. I just hope they’re exposed and punished. Being a minority business owner of African discent, I am particularly frustrated at this.
We received the same request above and now this new one new one…
Hello Owner
I am Mr Paul Brown i will like to order some labels from you and I will need you print the following along with the sizes on it.
Name to Print: GOD TIME IS BEST.
1 3/8″ x 4 1/4″ sized labels. For 300,00 total labels in rolls of 2,500 in white gloss with one color print Please I want you to email me with the total price include tax and excluding shipping and also what types of credit card do you accept as payment? I will be waiting to read from you soon.
Regards…….
Mr Paul Brown
Ours is a Williamm Baker, the 2nd email he sent he was Baker William. Also called via deaf relay operator. The only difference in the flyers was the qty. He wanted 100,000 from us. I replied sayin sorry we couldn’t do that larger of qty. that there were several online color printing companies that accepted credit cards. He emailed me back saying order as many as we could produce at one time and he would reorder. I am not responding back. I wondered how he would profit from this until I read about the wire transfer.
I am so tired of recieving these scam mails.I have probably recvd at least 12 of these in the last few months.Went along witha few to try and figure out the scam,and figured out it was the shipping.Frankly I don’t understand how anyone could fall for this .The grammar is so pathetic,and the print request is so bizzare and making no sense at all, that it would raise the suspicion of any recipient.These are probably the same Nigerians who were running the last big scam,The help me get money out of the country,and I will give you a million dollars scam.I don’t know how this dopes can be stopped!
Patrick,
My husband’s business was approached by a Mark Wilson for an order of 600 plaques (no engraving) to be sent to Ghana for an orphanage. Thank God I googled Rev. Matthew Banson and found your website. While we wouldn’t of done any ordering without credit card clearance it appears from others experience that they’ve found away around that as well. Mark Wilson just emailed my husband 4 separate credit card accounts to charge the bill. Who can we forward this information to. We are a small company, raising 4 children, fortuantely we will not be scammed. We’d like to prevent others from being so and see these people punished. Any further direction would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ann

We have not quoted the shipping charges, infact, we’re trying to get him to contact us in an effort to extract more info from him – and see if we can catch this guy, or at least take some of the wind out of his sails.
Be aware! Thanks to this site we’ve got some ammunition.
My guy (actually, 2 requests 2 days in a row from ‘Pastor Chris’ and ‘Samuel Harrison’) looking for printed ‘Banners’. Both with ‘God’ theme. Light on details and very eager to purchase WITHOUT Shipping costs. Provided a payment form for first guy to collect all his details. Faxed back and emailed scanned copy of 1 set of card info, then asked to put half on 2nd card info scribbled on bottom of form. Info from Atlanta GA area. Smelled real funny, so did some research online and found address of card is from an Electric Contractor company in Atlanta. Phone number provided went to ‘un-setup message’ default.
Thanks for this post area.
Busy huh, I just got this on Friday 8/22

Rev james
Rev Mac Willson has contacted me about printing 60,000 yellow flyers.
EXPRESS SHIPPERS AND AIR FREIGHT COURIERS is the name of the shipping company we are supposed to use. In the same broken English, I received an e-mail from them. It’s not hard to tell it’s the same guy.
I have to admit, when the charges for the shipping were e-mailed, the English was a little more convincing.
We stopped all progress on this with no expense incurred.
Sites like this one are very helpful.
This happened to me too. The guy (aka Rev. James Hopper) actually called me today and when I told him I knew he was a fraud he hung up on me!
Thanks for posting all this because this is how I found out he was a fraud so I didnt even take is credit card number.
Guess he’s ready for dessert now. The contact came off our website form, but looked odd so I Googled and found the page here.
“”
GOOD DAY MY NAME IS REV JAMES AND WILL LIKE TO ORDER FOR SOME CHOCOLAT. I WILL LIKE YOU TO GET BACK TO ME WITH THE PRICE FOR AN ASSORTED MILK CHOCOLATE AND WILL ALSO LIKE YOU TO GET BACK TO ME WITH THE TYPES AND PRICES OF CHOCOLATE THAT YOU HAVE FOR SELL IF YOU DONT HAVE THE ASSORTED TYPE. ALSO GET BACK TO ME WITH INFORMATION ON THE MAJOR CREDIT CARD YOU ACCEPT FOR PAYMENT AND I WILL ALSO LIKE TO INFORM YOU THAT IAM SENDING THEM AS A DONATION TO A CHUCRH AND I HAVE A SHIPPING COMPANY THAT WILL COME FOR THE PICK UP AS SOON AS THEY ARE READY. GET BACK TO ME WITH ALL INFORMATION SO WE CAN PROCEED.MAY GOD BLESS YOU REV JAMES HOPPER

JAMES SIZEMORE is the name used on the version of this scam email I received. Same story, wanted a quote and asked if we accepted credit cards. We took it seriously until we rec’d the second email in reply to our quote. The first flag was he immediately accepted a rather high quote, and then asked for the weights and asked me to contact their shipping company to send it to a church in Acra Ghana (even bigger flags). A quick Google search turned up this scam, confirming my suspicions.
For a little fun, I replied asking him for more info on the company, as well as their credit card number (including the security code on the back of the card) which I would need to proceed. That should scare him off, but I’m hoping he gives me something worthwhile to pass along to law enforcement.
This guy requested a quote from me too. Rev. Mark Jones (revmarkjones1@yahoo.com) Wanted me to ship 70,000 copies of a flyer that read “Help Save the Children” What kind of an idiot do you take me for?
He was very eager to get them printed.
Used a prepaid cell phone.
BEWARE!

Same story but different name, used Chris Twarowski. We exchanged several emails as I wondered how he had my name and why such a simple job was to be printed so far from delivery. Any shop could do this work. My son just returned from Ghana where he met many wonderful people. This puts such a bad mark on people who have no idea there are crooks like this giving them a bad name.
Ok guys, I think we should take this guy down. A Mr. Rev Mark Jones tried this same thing, 80,000 flyers shipping to ghana. The address that this guy tries to get this shipped doesnt change, so if everyone has saved these emails i think the proof would be overwhellming. Has anyone tried to go after this guy yet?
HI everyone,
Well, I must be the latest case. yesterday REV Shawn Morgan contacted me for 200 – 300 canvas images for a “save the children” image. …
After I contacted him with the quote and he wrote back with the whole West Africa thing I felt it spelled SCAM …
Here is what he wrote back to me…today
“Hello
I will like to order the 200 canvas’ which cost $7914. And i will recommend a freight company for the pick up of the canvas to orphanage home in (West Africa) . Now i want to you to contact them with the total weight of the 200 canvas and find out the freight quote to Africa for me . The delivery address is below :S.O.S HOME
505 Orphanage Street
Kumasi, 00233
Ghana(West Africa)Freight company email address : urbansfreightgh@kittymail.com
And including the pick-up location and they will surely get you a freight quote .As soon as you her from them let me know so that i can proceed with the transaction . ”
Best Regard
REV (Owner)
How do we go after someone like this? I have had several scam experiences before and luckily never took anything more than my time and excitment (thinking it was for real).
Kristen Westlake
No Kristen…we are the latest victim of this scam. Now “David Patokey” is wanting to buy windows and doors to be shipped over to Ghana and wants to give a credit card for the product and freight charges which we were requested to be wired to the freight company as they do not accept credit cards. I think this needs to be turned over to the authorities as we are all spending a lot of time needlessly trying to make a sale of our product to someone who obviously is not wanting to purchase anything.

So they are still at it
12/2/08
They’re still at it. This time it was a Don Martin who wanted 80,000 Save The Children flyers printed &
shipped to Ghana-West Africa. The freight company e-mail contact was konvickshipping@rock.com. It all sounded a little odd to me so I did an inquiry and found your website about the scam.
Thanks for posting the scam. It helped me and should
help other printers.
They’re at it again! I cannot believe the audacity of these people! I got an emailed request for a quote from a Rev. Rick Dennis, 55,000 b/w copies to be sent to Accra Ghana.
Knowing that this is a scam, I gave him a ridiculously HUGE price – which, of course, he didn’t bat an eye at.
I’m tempted to just have a bit of fun and send him on his way. Though, I wish I knew what to do with his information and how to get criminals like this caught…
Any ideas?
THIS IS THE LATEST…

THIS IS SCAM< THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP!!!!!!!!
I got the same inquiry over the weekend, and thought it was suspicious. We emailed asking for a phone number and address, so I called Mr. Bill Jones and asked a few questions. Ran the quote and emailed to to him then got the same letter about contacting his shipping agent.
I googled cas maatens & gerrie vd walt and ended up here. Thanks all for the heads up.
If it seems to good to be true, it probably is.
STILL AT IT! A few weeks ago I was contacted by email from “Terry Baker”.
He inquired about purchasing several hundred pounds of sea glass. I referred him directly to my supplier as the supplier is in a better position to package/ship such a large quantity. The supplier can also give him a better price. I was trying to save the guy a couple of bucks – –
Today my supplier contacted me and several other businesses that sell the sea glass to warn us of the scam. Good thing my supplier didn’t fall for the “use-my-shipping-company-and-wire-the-payment-to-them first” scam.
Just wanted to post this here to echo the name – Terry Baker – and now he’s contacting sea glass vendors!
I received this email today. Thought it looked like a scam.
Dear Sir/Madam

Rev Mike Toosa bought $14,000.00 OF ROPE CARD VERIFIED ADDRESS AND CVV BUT AFTER READING THIS I CALLED ISSUING BANK AND DIFFERENT NAME ON CARD
Just had an email from the same guy, thought something wasn’t quite right, so googled the shipping company and found this site.
Seems like he’s branching into furniture –
was asked for a quote for 5 tables (I run a furniture business), thought a bit strange for somewhere in Africa to be buying tables at Western retail prices and then having them shipped over… you would’ve thought he could have got some tables knocked up locally for less money and less hassle!
recieved one today and am still in contact:
photo album scam
new hope presbyterian church and orphanage in ghana
reverend ben johnson
ordered 300 photo albums for $30,000
will i take mastercard?
Thank goodness for google. I think that this guy is moving to bigger and heavier items. He first requested a quote for some counter tops for a city in Texas. He said that he will pick up at our store. Then he emails me and tells me that the counter tops will need to be ship to a church in Accra, Ghana. He provides me with the contact information for the church in Accra (Rev. Matthew Banson) and the contact information for the shipping company (Deeper Seas Freight Company). The email gave me a bad feeling when he mention that the freight company did not take credit cards and that we will have wire transfer the freight company. I google the address that he gave me (352 lemon street Accra, Ghana) and I came accross with you guys.
Received this new version today – stupidly my address is not the one shown.
Glad this web site is available as a warning not to waste any time even providing the quotation.

I’ve been researching this type of scam and have seen reports in almost every industry. My website sells surfboards and I’ve had two in the last month. I’ve seen this scam for cardboard boxes, glass vases, fencing materials, etc. They are all based out of Nigeria, an extension of the ‘cash my inheritance check for me’ emails that started a few years ago. Their country is so corrupt and poor, this is a way of life for these people and they don’t even think it is wrong to do!
o wow i was just e-mailing a person pertaining to be a pastor revkerry and he said he is a missionary in africa and i asked that if could send him a PAYPAL he said they did not exsist in africa so i told him i was sorry but i wouldn’t send him anything and good luck with the puppies how mean can people be o and he kept saying he was A MAN OF GOD
I hope these people get caught for scamming.They are to lazy to work that is why they are scamming .I just that God well deal with their hearts and They will pay back what they owe everyone .People to watch who they send their hard earned money to . If they steill themself and sleep at nioght that fine but it will come a judgement day for them.I don’t see how they could a child likre they did my granddaughter. Thank you hope and pray everydad they get caught
Well, I had never heard of this scam. At first it seemed legitimate until he gave me the ship to address in Ghana and he was going to an orphanage and then everything sounded fishy. They didn’t get me for anything but a few wasted minutes. I would love to see someone catch them.
I too have been asked for a quote for my handcrafted flag cases, 13 flag cases and Certificate holders. Well its highly unlikely that an Orphanage will need 13 burial flag cases etc.
Many scammers try to scam me all the time, but you can never really tell (right away) if they are trying to scam you. My best advice to anyone is this, "Get your money first"! Make sure the money has been received into your account from that person or company’s account. Then and ONLY then do you ship out the order.
I myself send an invoice for the total amount,(after received by paypal) then make and then send product out. If I receive a personal check etc. I wait till the check clears (from their bank)first, then send out the product.
Remember that Paypal is world wide, if they wont pay with paypal (oversea’s) its probably a scam. Use you head and do some research, thats how I found this blog, now if you’ll excuse me I need to tell this company and Mr.Hood I Dont do Business outside the U.S.!
Read the email that I received from them just this morning:

They are still at it, except in my instance, the name has changed to "Don Hickman". I inquired as to who he was, and what his company name was and received this reply…
"Don & Sons ltd., 1 arbor lea circle, Doylestown, PA 18901"
The request was for a quote on flyers from my printing company. The specs were a giveaway as it was clear the person didn’t have any knowledge of what he was asking for, or any real information a legit company would provide if requesting a quote. Keep vigilant out there !
I GOT THIS TODAY, 6/18/09 – would love to "mess" with him, but I don’t have the time.

They have moved beyond printed material. They called my company for product we manufacture. Shipping location was south Africa to the attn: of Shantel Bert. My contact was Dallas Eastwood and the carrier was Express World Shipping.
Reverend John just hit me up for 1000 t-shirts. I didn’t have the heart to tell him I was onto his scam, him being a man of God and all, so I just deleted his mail. I might have fallen for it were it not for the "Friend of the Ophans, Join lets help the needy" he wanted printed on them. I also won’t "advice my contact information" to him.
Hello ,
John Carter is my name and I would like to order some T- shirts with some text on it. here is how i want to be done.

Thanks and looking forward to hear from you soon

I had the same scam request from rev. Mike Larry. He called me because I didn’t respond to his email looking for candles. My company sells soy candles and not in the styles he claimed he was looking for. Same thing, he wanted a quote, exclusive of shipping fees. He wanted to order candles for a church in NJ and I’m in MN and he claimed he would pick them up. SCAM!
My name is Rev.Mike Larry i am with the Presbyterian Church of God and i
will like to Pillar Candles ,below is the specification of my inquiry:Models: All Models
Colors: red or any colors that you have ,
the sizes ; 4×4 or 3×3
Quantity:400 pics of that
kindly email me with a total pickup price of 400 pics .I will like you to send me an email response with the picked up price for this sizes
and if you don’t have this size or type available kindly email me with the sizes you have available. I will like to know your forms or terms of payment you accept Kindly respond to me as soon as possible for us to proceed further with the order.
Thank You.
Rev.Mike Larry
I called one of my prospective accounts to see if he had some work he wanted us to quote on. He forwarded me information for some bushings (that he can’t make, but we can) for a "Frank Pino" with an email address of frankpino72@yahoo.com. I called the US Dept of Commerce to see if we needed an export license. Fortunately the rep told me I needed to find out who I was shipping to. I searched the Treasury departments list of designated persons, essentially a list of persons to whom exporting is forbidden. I googled "Frank Pino" and "Brian Cram" (this shipping contact) and "Express World Shipping Co. Ltd" and found nothing. Then I googled "Shantel Bert" (from the shipping address) and found this website. Thanks! There were a lot of red flags and I would have eventually backed off the deal. This blog really shortened the amount of work I was about to put into trying to find out who this guy was and how the bushings were going to be used.
Here is the latest incarnation…
"Dear Sir/Madam,
Mr Shane William is my name and i would like to help me place an order of some business cards and below is full details of what i am inquiring.
Writing on the card
Name of business : BAMA TOP TECH

So now go ahead and read the above information and then email me back with the total pick up price for the order and the type of payment that you do accept and also advise me your name and contact information.
Thanks and hope to hear back from you soon.
Shane"
My reply…
"Are you the Shane that works with Rev James Hopper, Rev. Matthew Banson, Rev John Carter, Mr Paul Brown, Williamm Baker, Mark Adams, Don Hickman, Rev. Mike Larry and Mark Wilson? And after I take your order will you have a sudden emergency and want me to ship your cards to Africa after you give me fraudulent credit card information?

So, how is the weather in Nigeria this time of year anyway?"
BEWARE! THIS GUY WILL ALSO CALL YOU TO CONFIRM THE ORDER I JUST CANCELLED IT NOW!!! HE TRIES TO GET YOU TO ORGANISE SHIPPING!!!

– We actually went through with starting the order because he paid half of the balance with a card – we received the money and then started to process the order. After he e-mailed about having to go out of town to tend to his sick mother, we got very suspicious! He gave us 2 more cards to run the remaining balance and the $2k in shipping – both cards were declined. I called the credit card company and they said all of the cards we had used were reported stolen! I e-mailed him back and he responded with 2 more cards!! He has given me 6 so far – I’ve reported them all to the credit card company!! We feel very very stupid to have believed this!!! We are just glad that we didn’t end up sending them our money!!!
Such a pathetic SCAM!!!!
