Yes before you say "Serves you right" I am only here to alert others not
to fall for the same trick!!
I'm normally very weary about Online frauds etc, but this one looked ok.

About 8 months ago, I came across the following web site.
www.gsmss.as.ro Which supposedly markets a cheap GSM Interceptor.

Eight Months ago I ignored it thinking it was a scam.
"Anyway" a few weeks ago I got an email saying that they had brought out
and upgraded version of their product.

"Hmmm,I thought" Web site been going eight months and they are emailing
me with what seems to be a genuine email, and "sure enough" on a visit
to the site, they had introduced a new addition to their portfolio.

"Anyway" conversations went back and forth for a few weeks whilst they
gained my confidence, but I went and broke the cardinal rule of doing
online business. NO CONTACT ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER!!!

I since wired over ?5000 to them, and "Guess what" not a word from them
since!!!

I know there is not a cat in hells chance of getting anything back, but
if the right Security organization is reading this, then I hope you can
act to shut this site down forthwith.

There are quite a few Nigerian offers
around which might make you feel
good for a short while. :-)
