I suppose it was inevitable. Scammers from Nigeria have discovered the many ridiculous online ramblings about the "evil Illuminati" and are now spamming accordingly. Recently this message has been showing up all over the Internet, on just about any page that matches the "Illuminati" keyword, including some of my posts here on Augoeides.
The redactions are mine. I'm not going to give these folks extra publicity by including their contact information on the front page of my blog. If you're really interested it's not hard to find by clicking on the following links, but let me stress that I highly recommend you avoid calling or e-mailing them. I did leave the +234 country code from the phone number to identify the country of origin as Nigeria, home of the notorious advance fee scam.
So who are these people really? Could it be that a lodge of the notorious secret order fled to Africa around 1800 and has been hiding out in Nigeria ever since, like the story of the Ark of the Covenant hidden in Ethiopia? Or is this just another in a long string of Nigerian princes looking for help moving his ill-gotten millions? A simple Google search on the phone number turned up a bunch of testimonials like this one:
So it sounds like one of two things is true. Either "Dr. Akugbe" is the real head of the Illuminati, or this is just another scam cooked up to string marks along with promises of Illuminati wealth. And I'm betting on the latter. I expect anyone who contacts the number will be asked to pay some sort of initiation fee, and if they do send the money they'll never hear from these clowns again.
Fake Illuminati, indeed.

Fake Illuminati, indeed.
You didn't even read the article, did you? Following up a post about how these Nigerian Illuminati folks are fakes and scammers with one more spammed message trying to get people to join said fake Illuminati seems misguided at best.
ReplyDeleteIt is funny, though.
