Sometimes it's the bank account of an innocent third party they have hijacked. Or it's opened with false credentials.

- csomar 10y agoReceiving 3million USD in your account from a foreign account doesn't trigger any bells? I assume the false credentials account is, probably, brand new and the person in unknown to the agency/public. Seems sketchy to me.
- saint_fiasco 10y agoThere is a scam where a Nigerian prince says he needs your help, he will send money to your back account and needs you to withdraw that and send him cash. Of course he will let you keep a portion of the money for your trouble. Only in this scam the prince actually sends you money, so you gladly send some to the prince and keep the rest. Of course, the cops then want to know why the money from some poor guy's life savings ended up on your bank account...
