LATEST UPDATE: Aug 4, 2009       

Scammer "Allan Brad"   is now Allen "Bradley"....

... London Restaurant proprietor wrote...

I run an Indian restaurant in London and have just received an e mail from a Dr Allan Brad who claimed he was interested in booking a group dinner for 15 people over the course of three days.
 
I became suspicious so decided to do a search online and was directed to your site.  I will forward you the e - mails so that you may use these to highlight that this fraudster is still trying to deceive innocent people and restaurant/bar owners.
 
 
Thank you for your response regarding the fraudulent e - mails sent by the fictional "Dr Allan Brad".  And also thank you for highlighting how this individual is trying to deceive bar owners/restaurants like myself. 
 
For all of us who have realised that this is a scam, Im sure there are a couple of people out there who have fallen victim to the temptation of a group booking with an advanced deposit. 
 
Im sure this scam will continue for a while yet but your suggestions and website will definitely help to reduce this to an absolute minimum. 
 
Many thanks for your help,
With Regards,
Mumtaz Restaurant London

Note that Allan Brad is the return address but he is now also calling himself "Allen Bradley"

Editor: Thanks for your help to others

Subject: Payment arrangements

Hello,

Thanks for your reply and assistance so far and we will book for the dinner.I will make a payment deposit of $ 2,000 which will cover their meals and drinks in advance because we are not sure of what your guests might like to drink or how much they are likely to consume.

Moreover, we were able to make an arrangement with a pre-paid car hiring agent  who will supply the guests with vehicles that will be used by the guests to and for your place. So in order not to share my credit card information with a third party, I have decided that only you will have to handle my credit card information.

 More so, the prepaid agent and do not have the facility to make a manual charge to a credit card if not present. On my own side, I would have sent him his money directly, but am on the high sea work on an OIL RIG. There are no bank or moneygram here where I can make payment directly to the agent.

So once you are in receipt of my credit card details,you are required to charge the total amount of $ 9,000 + processing fees on my card,then deduct $ 2,000 as initial payment deposit for the dinner(meals and drinks) and send the balance of $ 7,000 to the prepaid car / ticketing agent  whose information I will forward to you once this is confirmed.

Confirm this and provide me with your
(1) YOUR FULL NAME
(2) FULL ADDRESS
(3) PHONE NUMBERS for office record.

All checks and balances shall be done with the group leader on the final day of their dinner.

Please be advised that we shall pay for all expenses and fees incurred as a result of the entire amount to be charged.

Kind Regards,
Dr. Allen Bradley
