Unpaid Compensation Fund Scam
Kristalina Georgieva
It has been some time since I have had the opportunity to receive a "compensation payment" on this ocassion of US$10.7 million. Obviously there is no such payment due to me, it is just the start of an "advanced fee scam".

We are working on it right now your transfer will be processed soon.
Send your account details and full name on it with any of your id card
Kristalina Georgieva
Notes: Never ever give your bank account details to scammers nor for that matter a copy of photographic id as they could further defraud you or steal your identity. It is however easy to send them fake bank details even using the name of a bank that does not exist and to send fake id corresponding to your assumed identity with an ai generated image for the photograph. So we will see how that goes.

Thanks for your mail. Kindly be informed that I contacted the management to confirm how much it will cost for the release of your said fund. I was informed by the management that only what is needed from the recipient is $455.00 USD.
Secondly, Note this has to be confidential to avoid double claims. I will advise you to try your possible best to get this payment done. I promise and assure you that everything will come to a successful end.
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.
Congratulations in advance.
Regards.
Ms. Kristalina Georgieva
Managing Director of the International
Monetary Fund. (I.M.F)
Notes: Now we get down to the first amount they wish to scam us... $455 USD.
Further emails come in quick succession, telling me how to make payment apparently to a "money mule" working on their behalf, proofs of identity showing photographs of the actual Managing Director of the IMF (these are available online so don't actually prove anything) and encouragements that everything will work out alright.

*Personal UK. GB*
*Account number :*
*09057828*
*Sort code:*
*040831*
*Bank name:*
*Clear bank *
*Account name:*
*Jane Isibor*
This is the account details once payment is made send me receipts your transfer will be completed today and possible you will receive it tonight
Kristalina Georgieva
Notes: I could report Jane Isibor to the Clear Bank fraud department (details online) but I am not going to be the one who "grasses" her in. Jane is probably a person who has been employed to work remotely to process payments ie money launder. Each payment she processes and receives money into her account she will forward then to the scammers actual bank account keeping a small cut for herself, an innocent task but one that is a criminal offence handling the proceeds of crime.

Yes, we are transferring 2 million dollars to your personal account tonight. We will transfer even more over the next two days.
But you will receive the 2 million dollars today first, because you made your payment today.
Kristalina Georgieva
Notes: When you make your payment the transfer will be held up with some other obstacle that requires another fee to be paid. No money will ever come to your account.

My id card
Notes: It is well documented online that the name Kristalina Georgieva is often used in 419 Advanced Fee internet scams, so too are fake id cards bearing her name and photograph. This particular card has not been indexed online but ones very similar are shown on google. The photograph of her shovelling snow is from a publically available post from her facebook page in 2019, one anyone could obtain.

Hello am still waiting
Notes: And so she will continue to wait. I could fake a payment receipt but that would only fool the scammers for a few minutes, not as long as it would take me to create one. I could call them out as scammers but they would probably protest their innocence. So I will leave things there and post any further responses from "Kristalina".
