country code +225 Solved

Question

Hello,

I received an email from Microsoft confirming that I have won €250,000. I can contact the person by phone at 00225 41415352 or by email, but after researching, I realize that it's from Côte d'Ivoire. Of course, they're asking for my name, address, etc. Do you think this is a scam? In my opinion, yes, especially since I never have any luck, but it’s true that being unemployed and receiving the minimum makes it quite tempting.
Thank you for your reply.

Hello, I just received a call from: 09.72.46.83.76; it was clearly a pre-recorded voice. The person kept saying hello as if they hadn't heard my response, then claimed it must be my answering machine and added "I'll call you back", which obviously they didn't do. Even though this number starts with 09, I'm not trying to call it back. This voice is not someone I know and sounded like it came straight from an advertisement. Out of curiosity, I even searched for this area code on http://www.indicatifs.net/ with no results. Well, now I definitely sense a scam, but where is it????

I'm sorry, but I've just encountered the infamous 00225 supposedly from Canada. It's actually the prefix for Ivory Coast. Beware of scams, do not call at all.

Hello,
I also just received an email of the same kind, and the same phone number. Here is the content:
I am following up on your email. After discussion with my wife, we agree to buy the Boat for the price of €34,000.00 as stated. However, regarding the payment, our bank advises us to use a bank transfer as it is more secure and allows for a connection between the two financial institutions.
Nevertheless, my atypical position should not hinder this transaction as our desire to acquire this boat, especially at this price, has not wavered for a moment.
I am in West Africa where I own a hotel under construction, offering a view of the sea, and the boat will be of great utility. It will therefore be brought back here once you have cashed the money into your account. Once the cashing is effective, at that time we will establish the sales documents, giving you time to finalize with your notary as well. Once the transaction is completed, I will get in touch with a shipping company for loading at the right moment.
If you agree, please send me a bank account statement along with proof of identity and residence so that I can proceed with the transfer as soon as possible by the time you arrive in France.
Looking forward to hearing from you. "
Moral: no more contact. Period.

Here’s another example:

Best regards,
> To introduce myself, my name is Gnandou Nadège, daughter of the late Mr. Desiré Gnandou, who was an ambassador and later a special advisor to former President Laurent Gbagbo. My late father was among the patriots who stayed at the presidential residence with President Laurent Gbagbo before being attacked by rebels supporting the new president, Alassane Ouattara.
> The Presidential Residence was attacked by the FRCI on April 11, 2011, with the aim of capturing President Laurent Gbagbo and his elites who had taken refuge inside the bunker at the presidency. After these painful and tragic events, my father lost his life while Laurent Gbagbo was captured on the same day. My mother died from her injuries several days later.
> Today, the new government of Alassane Ouattara and its leaders are mistreating us and hunting down all the elites and relatives of the ousted president's families. As a result, our stay in Côte d'Ivoire has become very delicate, difficult, increasingly risky, and dangerous for our lives, so after being dispossessed of everything, my little brother and I had no other choice but to flee Abidjan to find refuge in a region of the country where we live hidden and in total discretion thanks to the kindness of a pastor, hoping that the current regime will end its dictatorship.
> It is therefore with great humility and deep respect that I am writing you this email to solicit your help and assistance in recovering the financial reserve that my late father secured with a security organization. I want to let you know that it was while digging through our late father's belongings that I discovered very important documents that justify what I am telling you.
> Indeed, my father had entrusted this security organization with 2 trunks containing gold (65kgs).
> I hereby request your help to claim these trunks from the security organization.
> I look forward to hearing from you again for more details.
>
> Given our current situation, I ask that you keep this matter completely confidential so as not to put our lives in the hands of the henchmen of this regime, who would not hesitate to kill us if they were to discover us.
>
> May God bless you,
> Nadège Gnandou
> PS: Please respond to this address: ***@***

Another example.

To get back to the matter at hand, you need to know that I was able to go to the security company where I had exchanges with the director of this company, and here are the details of our exchanges:

The director informed me that since the shipment is going to be received by our associate abroad, it is therefore mandatory to establish a legal document called the CHANGE OF BENEFICIARY in the name of the person who will receive the trunks, namely in your name. So I asked the director if my associate could have this document prepared from his country, and he informed me that this was impossible simply because the parcel shipping is done from Côte d'Ivoire, hence it is absolutely necessary that this document be established and legalized by the competent structures and authorities here in Côte d'Ivoire.
I then asked the director whom I should turn to for the establishment of this document since I didn't know where to orient myself in this situation; he advised me that he has full authority to execute this legal document for us. However, you need to contact him for prior arrangements.
Here are his contacts:
The director's name is Mr. Kounfouoh Amansa Georges
www.compagnie-securite-exp-inter.com (Click on "contact us")
Tel: 00225 77922802

The director especially insisted that he cannot be in a position to establish this document if my associate does not agree to the preliminary discussions of their "Working Conditions" that he will submit to you. He also reassured me regarding the time frame for establishing this document (48 hours).

Once you have contacted him, please keep me informed either by calling me (00225 56597018) or sending me a message. And in case it is my little brother Raymond on the line, you can safely discuss with him as he is a beneficiary just like me.

You need to get in touch with the director of the security company by sending him a message in which you will ask him for the requirements to obtain a change of beneficiary in your name so that the parcels can be shipped to your country and to your exact address by the diplomatic service of the security company as the director has informed me.

PLEASE, WHEN YOU HAVE CONTACTED THE DIRECTOR, DO NOT REVEAL TO HIM THE ACTUAL CONTENT OF THE TRUNKS. SIMPLY TELL HIM THAT YOU ARE OUR ASSOCIATE ABROAD WHO IS TO RECEIVE THE TRUNKS IN ANOTHER NAME.
THE DIRECTOR WAS FIRM, HE SAID THAT DURING THE JOURNEY UNTIL THE DELIVERY OF THE TRUNKS TO YOUR EXACT ADDRESS (HOME), THESE TRUNKS CAN NEVER BE SEARCHED BECAUSE THEY WILL BE UNDER DIPLOMATIC SEAL AND THEREFORE CARRIED BY A DIPLOMATIC SERVICE FOR THIS PURPOSE.

I am counting on your discretion in this matter and on your good faith. You need to know that you are our only hope, as we are tired of living in fear and dread here in Côte d'Ivoire.

Thank you for your dedication to us; know especially that you will not regret having met us. And we look forward to being with you to live now in happiness and joy by your side.

I am still waiting for your photo
May God bless you.
Nadège
PS/Keep me informed of all the different messages you exchange with the director.
