The Philippine Consulate
General cautions the public from being perpetrated by an e-mail
message of a swindler claiming to be Filipino national.
The e-mail involves a proposal by a fictitious person who claims
to be “Madam Laarni Enriquez” who has $17.5 million
funds deposited in a security company in the Ivory Coast of
Africa. This e-mail sender is alluring unsuspecting victims
to join business ventures with her using the funds. She is also
enticing her victims of an instant benefit of $5 million if
the transaction is accomplished within two days.
Filipinos and Filipino-Americans who receive such deceitful
and similar fraudulent messages are advised to immediately provide
information to the Philippine Consulate General at tel. no.
(415) 433-6666 (Attention: Assistance to Nationals Section).
