Marshal Dumba, George Brumley, 419 scam, OUAGADOUGOU

Yes, it’s another e-mail from Ouagadougou touting an imaginary account, using George’s name to promote it. The reason is simple, George Brumley is easy to research on the internet. His background makes the story halfway believable.

George Brumley, Ouagadougou

It looks as though the George Brumley story is a great theme to run 419 scams on.

If you take a look at Wikipedia you will find an entry about Mr. Brumley. He was quoted to be a philanthropist and he died with several family members in a plane crash in 2003.

Now obviously this background is ideal for 419 scam crooks to misuse this information to put a bogus story about “lost” money in deepest Africa. Seeing that e-mails quoting money in Ouagadougou come in almost every day here, it does seem a favourite location for stories like this.
