If you have been a long time player of the online game, World Of Warcraft you will no doubt have received one of these emails from time to time. It purports to be from Blizzard who are the company behind World Of Warcraft and tells you that your account is being investigated for some reason, usually because you have been seen trying to sell it (WoW accounts do actually sell for real money!) and then it asks you to click a link to log in to your battle.net account and verify it. Of course once you click the link you will be taken to a page that looks very much like the the real battle.net account page. Once there you are asked to enter your details including account user name and password and cd key. Job done! Your account has now been stolen!!

NEVER click a link in an email like this. If in doubt always open your browser and log into your account as you would normally. Blizzard will never ask you to log into your account like this. They will never ask for your password or cd key.

A variation on this email is often used to con you into giving out your bank details.

Greetings,

An investigation of your World of Warcraft account has found strong evidence that the account in question is being sold or traded. As you may not be aware of, this conflicts with Blizzard\'s EULA under section 4 Paragraph B which can be found here: WoW -> Legal -> End User License Agreement and Section 8 of the Terms of Use found here:
WoW -> Legal -> Terms of Use

The investigation will be continued by Blizzard administration to determine the action to be taken against your account. If your account is found violating the EULA and Terms of Use, your account can, and will be suspended/closed/or terminated.
In order to keep this from occurring, you should immediately verify that you are the original owner of the account.

Click on the link below to verify your Battle.net account e-mail address:

Account security is solely the responsibility of the account holder. Please be advised that in the event of a compromised account, Blizzard representatives will typically lock the account. In these cases the Account Administration team will require faxed receipt of ID materials before releasing the account for play.

Sincerely,
The Battle.net Account Team

Seems Ruth Godinez aka Ruth Loresco or Ruth Allamado or Ruth Flores or Axel or Tanya or Barbie, she also uses axelbaby_loresco or ruth_shelo3016 is still happily scamming away in the Philippines.

Mobile/Cell phone number: 0063(0)9499461177 or 0063(0)9278916960 or 0063(0)9499461178 or 0063(0)9279158330.

Ruth or Axel is 25 years old, date of birth: July 15, 1986 that is what she told me, she maybe older or younger! I also found out that she is living with her partner Sherwin Loresco who is also involved in scamming people.

She has scammed me of £1,800 over the course of 2 1/2 months, from March 2011 up until May 2011 (I have receipts from Western Union to prove it).
.
It's not just about the money, but I am now emotionally and physically drained from this recent ordeal!

She is originally from Cebu City, but lives in Cogeo City, Rizal, Philippines and has relatives, as she said that lives in Maly, San Mateo, Rizal and Cainta, Rizal.

Ruth uses: 253 Sta Cecilia, Ibayo, Maly, San Mateo, Rizal and an address in Saint Gregory Village, Cainta, Rizal (I don't know the full details) as her forwarding address, I believe she lives in; Tibigan, St Penia Francia, Cogeo City, Antipolo.

Latest news from my source in the Philippines, Ruth Godinez is now scamming a 65 year old Japanese man! I hope he has the sense to do a background search on Ruth!

Found on www.dateinasia.com Yvonne Madrigal is a scammer supreme! She is an expert in convincing you how genuine she is and will have you feeling happy and confident in no time. Before you realise what your doing you will have handed over large amounts of cash only to be dropped like a hot potato and left floundering to pick up the pieces of your crushed emotions.

Her address details are :

125 Bougaivilla Street,
Calumpang,
Sibuguey Province,
Zamboanga del Sur,
Philippines 

OR
San Miguel,
Calumpang,
Sibuguey Province,

Zamboanga del Sur,
Philippines 7000

Her basic scam is that she will be coming to your country as she has found a job through an agency to be a nurse in a hospital. Of course she doesn't quite have enough money. She needs to get to Manila and doesn't quite have enough for the flight at which point you are supposed to jump in and be her knight in shining armour and save her from losing the opportunity of a lifetime. Once you have sent her the money via Western Union and all seems rosy in the garden you get a message that her mother has been taken ill/died and she needs to go back home. Yes, she needs to use the money you sent her before and yes she will require more money to fund the flight etc. If you send her more money you can look to be out of pocket to anything up to another grand! This is on top of what you sent her before of course.

Yvonne Madrigal is a prolific scammer of the worst kind. Don't fall for the sob story. She WILL take your money. She makes a very good living out of this even by Western standards. If you have been a victim of this scammer please let us know.

Met this one through Asian Brides. She's very good at what she does...obviously a lot of practice! I lost $500 before I found out she was listed elsewhere as a scammer. Could have been worse but still, I feel a bit of a chump and to me 500 bucks is not loose change 

Her address is :

Rosales St, 
Cotabato City

She gives everyone this link to her pics on Youtube where she describes herself as a "Simple Girl".

The only thing "simple" about her is the ease at which she parts you from your money!!

This agency is currently listed on the "Gold List" page under "Honorable Mentions, Russian" on the "MarriageAgencyScams.com" web site, and by my standards, should actually be listed under something titled more like "Dishonorable Mentions".

The agency is "MissUA" at "http://wife.in.ua" or "http://www.woman-for-marriage-ukraine.com".

My issue with them is that I wanted to sign-up for their "Letter Forwarding" service, which is $3 per letter. I wanted to place $25.00 US into my "account" with them, but from their site only PayPal (and defunct eGold) is offered as a payment method. So I went to their office to pay them in person. There I was told in order to actually DATE any of the girls I write to, I have to pay $65.00 PER GIRL!!! I went back to my apartment and double checked on their site... there is NO mention of this whatsoever.

The girl I talked to first said I could come back (this week) and talk to the manager if I wanted to. I went in again, but the manager was still not there. I talked to a different office worker and she told me the same thing. I offered to pay $30.00 per date, at which she scoffed at and said there was no mention on the site of a $30.00 option. I then reminded her neither is there a mention of one for $65.00, and she was just indignant.

On top of that, they would not allow me to pay for the "Letter Forwarding" at either of my two visits to them. Obviously, if a guy is already here, he could just write and meet them, then how would they get their $65.00?

So it looks like they soak the guys for as many "services" as they can get them to purchase, then once they get here, or at some other point once they are "hooked", tell them now they have to pay $65.00 (or perhaps more if you count their "Romantic Excursions", etc).

When I asked why this $65.00 fee wasn't listed on their web site page they have titled "FULL Price List", and I was actually told "they haven't been able to update the site, it's been that way for 3 years"! Funny, I am assuming they are able to update with new girls... or are they? Probably so. So they are purposely keeping this $65.00 fee hidden. She then said (that at some point) guys were told about this in an email message. Well I had signed up with them on their site prior to visiting them in their office the first time and I STILL haven't received any email telling me about this $65.00 "date" fee.

Note From The Editor : We checked the www.woman-for-marriage-ukraine.com web site going back three years and their claim that they were not able to update it in this time is a lie. The site has been updated a number of times over that period. It's quite clear this $65 charge is deliberately kept secret and only mentioned at the very last moment.
