Easy money is a dream held by almost everyone at some point in their lives, they win the lottery or find hidden treasure and all without pain or strain. For most people that dream is never realized and eventually they accept that it not too much in life is easily gained. The Wash Wash ripoff is a relatively new ripoff and uses misdirection combined with technology of a virtuoso level to accomplish this and lure in victims.
Compared to the advance-fee scam, there’s not much difference, but there’s a tangle amount of money in a trunk that is hoisted in front of victims. In this scam, a conman will contact the victim and proceed to convince them that they have real bills in this trunk or safe, and can give it to them for nothing at all, providing them with a couple of bills to prove their legitimacy.
Marks are told that the money has been dyed black in order to avoid customs inspections and taxes. According to those who have been arrested, by coating money with white glue and either iodine or raspberry Kool-Aid, the money appears black.
There are several real bills treated in the same way and the rest of the container will be full of black construction paper, to convince the victim they are asked to choose a random bill to “restore” which is actually a genuine note the con artist has palmed and changes out for the randomly chosen piece of construction paper. The palmed cash that was cleverly switched is then treated with a simple solution that removes the coloring and the victim is thereby convinced the entire trunk is full of genuine bank notes.
Marks are originally contacted via email after thousands or millions of memos have been sent to accounts found through either hacking of user accounts or by contacting accounts randomly. Of the few who will respond, contact will be made first via email then by phone which is why it’s important to use telephone services such as www.people-tracking-portal.com/B/1.html in order to verify that he or she are actually who they say they are.
You’ll often be asked for money to address shipping fees and other costs that might be inherent in the transfer of the money. No matter the reason they give, they want to get you to give them the money. Victims who then become suspicious of the scammers will then be force to sign a document that states that they know that this is illegal money and that they’ll be getting it by avoiding taxes and customs procedures, in order to make it seem legitimate.
Ripoffs are most efficient when they are new because like well done stage magic it takes watching and studying to figure out how they are doing it and where the “catch” is. There is no way to win with a ripoff artist and with ripoffs like these even “proof” such as the victim taking the trunk with them to keep in a secure place, is of anything but another misdirection. A container full of black construction paper has no value because the ripoff artists will do anything to keep the money flowing from the victim. Some Wash Wash Ripoff artists tell the victim that exposure to light or air will chemically alter the paper and render the money valueless, this buys them more time before the fraud is discovered and they use that time to request more cash from the victim supposedly to buy chemicals or pay more bribes.
The Wash Wash Ripoff has been reported on occasion by victims and the few arrests made and were due to the victims reports to the authorities. Ripoff artists rely on the victim’s shame at being misled to escape detection and delay the authorities search for them but a brave victim who reports can help stop these fraud attempts and save others from the same fate.
