Isn’t that wonderful to get a job offer?
And not a job like any other!
It pays $ 500 and results in noticeable fame.
Best of all is that the job seems to be photographing models.
Beautiful and willing girls who are tired after the photo-session and need a drink to recover, possibly with the photographer.
When one uses the search engine Google and type in “Michel Szulc Krzyzanowski”, within half a minute one will see 3,520 results.
Anybody worldwide can get to know quite a lot about the work of this “Michel Szulc Krzyzanowski”.
Even find his e-mail address.
Therefore, it is easy to send a message offering a fantastic job.
As a result of this high profile on the Internet a lot of messages are received.
Many are nice and kind and result in lasting contact.
But of course a lot is simply garbage, spam and scams.
Now it is this Roger Harris who discovered this photographer and has an assignment for him.
However, being in this business for some time, plenty of experiences have learned that an assignment is never the result of simply someone sending an e-mail.
People in the business know each other.
It is all very much based on reputation.
We are almost like a family.
An assignment is the result of a process that includes usually knowing each other personally.
It is fairly easy to come quickly to the conclusion that the e-mail from Roger Harris is a scam.
A way of trying to squeeze money out of the photographer.
The method used is always the same.
If one responds to such an e-mail a lengthy communication starts.
Quickly it is made clear that in order to get the job the photographer has to transfer a certain amount of money to the scammer.
Promising golden mountains and good returns, it is pretended that it is only normal and reasonable to pay the amount.
Of course, if one does, one will never hear of Roger Harris again.
Because he is a thief and once he has his loot he runs away.
Another purpose of the scam is sometimes to try to get so many details of the person that his or her bank account can be plundered.
These schemes of trying to cheat people out of money have become a phenomenon once the Internet became successful.
For a long time e-mails were send explaining that millions of $ were available in some bank account but that to release that money help was needed.
If one would assist freeing those assets a healthy percentage would be the reward.
People hungry for easy money who would respond to this proposition would also at one point have to transfer money first.
And loose it.
This scheme has become too well known and recently this scam to approach photographers has popped up.
On the different forums of photographers on the Internet the news of these schemes has rapidly spread and therefore it might be expected that it will not be very successful.
Other schemes that are common are that someone wants to pay you to cash cheques and send them the money.
Or a new friend/penpal on a friendship/dating site who's asking you for money.
Or a dying person contacts you wanting your help to give his money to charity.
Or when you have sold an item and are asked to accept a payment larger than the item amount and return the difference.
In the UK is a guy who decided that we must fight back these scammers.
Who are usually from Nigeria, Africa.
Mike got into what is called “scambaiting”.
This method is to reply to the scammer and pretend that you are highly interested.
Without yourself giving away or any correct information, the game is to scam the scammer.
Mike is so good at this that he even managed a scammer to send him money.
He publishes these stories on a website and they are fascinating and hilarious to read.
This website also serves as a forum for other people to report on their experiences with scam plots.
And the pictures and names of the culprits are published.
This scamming is a multi million dollars industry.
Too many people are too simple minded, too naïve and too good of belief.
Or they are too hungry for what seems to be easy money.
Or they feel so lonely that the enormous desire blinds them to see that the girl soliciting is only a method to squeeze money out of the person.
Those people are the real victims.
Are they really?
Because if one does 5 minutes of research on the Internet after receiving a scam e-mail, it can be found out quickly that it is fraudulent.
In any case, a job paying $ 500 and resulting in noticeable fame is not an interesting proposition.
There is already enough fame and in Business Class seats are much more expensive.
