GENERAL DIRECTORATE OF THE GENDARMERIE
DIRECTORATE OF PROTECTION OF MINORS
We acknowledge receipt of your email.
You have indeed committed a crime, because on pornographic and naughty sites, there are also minors, which is prohibited by law.
We are not here to create problems for you but this act is strictly prohibited.
This being said, we are going to subject you to an article of justice which could well allow you to atone without making this matter public and without compromising your profession or your reputation.
We acknowledge receipt of your email.
We present the following cases to you:
1- JUDICIAL PROCEDURE: the courts could take the necessary measures to have you prosecuted, and make the matter public and thus dissuade other people who were having fun playing this game on the internet.
2- AMICABLE SETTLEMENT: the judicial system could resolve this problem amicably so in this case of solution, you will have to pay a criminal fine of 8,950 euros provided for by national legislation for this purpose.
Please respond to us in order to initiate the appropriate procedure depending on the option you choose from the two options mentioned above.

Scammer:
Sir, We have several elements which were recorded by our cyber-policemen and which are in our respective files.Which of course constitutes proof of your offenses.
However, the evidence only comes out when the individual refuses to admit the facts with which he is accused.
Then, after this amicable settlement period, a report will be made to the Deputy Prosecutor at the Créteil High Court and specialist in cybercrime to establish an arrest warrant against you.
Presses and Media for broadcasts.
We have sent you an email telling you the steps to follow.
We note that you may not realize the seriousness of the accusation.
Looking forward to reading you.
Sincerely
THE DIRECTION

Me:
I am very very sorry, but I don't understand what you are writing to me. And who are you?![???](http://storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png)
Scammer:
I am Catherine de Bolle, Director General of EUROPOL Sir, we found our email in our respective file which tells you that you watch porn and that he often takes you young purple girls under 18 years old which is a very serious offense as you know, we will ask you to return to the nearest police station to give a precise explanation of what you did
Me:
You are Director General of EUROPOL and you are writing to me using Gmail? What is your office address and phone number?Scammer:
sir we do not share your number that's why we write to you by email so tell me what is your choice Me:
my choice is that you properly identify yourself. Scammer:
Just this warning of the action we will take in the following hours.And given that I am responsible for bringing your file to my superiors who would like to make the matter public to the Ministry for the Protection of Women and Children or FRANCE 24 submit you to an article which could well allow you to and make this matter public and to harm your profession or reputation,
We must pay you a criminal fine provided for by national legislation for this purpose so that you are not arrested at your home for imprisonment of 5 years and a fine.
Now you have been warned.
Sincerely,
Me:
I don't have that much money available in cash. Most of my money is invested in crypto currency like Bitcoin.Scammer:
so sir please confirm me in the next mail so that I can send you a bitcoin account to make the transfer Me:
Yes, I can try to send payment by Bitcoin. I have not sent a Bitcoin payment to anyone before so I don't know how to do it. I will ask my brother to help me. He is very good with technology. Can you reduce the payment amount to 6,000?Scammer:
Sir, the only favor I can do you is to pay the fine in two installments, you will pay the 6,000 euros as the first installment and you will pay the following 2,950 euros next month because that is how EUROPOL works so if you agree, please confirm to me in the next email so that I can let you coordinate the bitcoin to make the transfer Me:
I accept your offer. Scammer:
Sir, I leave you the account attached so that you can make the first payment of 6,000 eurosSir, tell me when will you make the first payment
Bitcoin : 14waMjh1Wpn6dqRkaUvcvZr1QCfJBLXeiw
Me:
I tried to transfer the funds to your account 3 times and all 3 times it failed. It said "FRAUD" is detected to be associated with the Bitcoin wallet that you gave to me and then my payment was blocked.
I was also charged a service fee of $10 each time even though the transfer failed.
Scammer:
Sir I looked at the account and yes you were right this time if I had received too large a sum too much money in the account so now this makes this person a choice if possible you have a RIB bank account to be able to carry out another transfer to be better done Me:
I told you already that I don't have much money in my bank account. All my money is in Bitcoin!Scammer:
Sir. Just a moment I will send you a new account so you can make payment Sir, here is a new account, please make the transfer and send me the receipt
Bitcoin : bc1qmuqh34glwk2yehyc83gv548rqsp2ecmjw92pls
Me:
I just tried to send the payment again using the new information you gave me. It was blocked again. Same reason. FRAUD. This time I was charged $100 penalty because of this fraud issue and now my account has also been blocked for 72 hours. So now I can't even log in.
Scammer:
Sir, tell me do you have another way to pay the fine because I offered you two solutions and it doesn't work for me bitcoin doesn't work the second solution is a RIB bank account it doesn't work either then tell me how would you do it, would you like to send me the 6000 euros, you don't have three ways to pay, the last one is the transcach or PSC coupon Sir, then you will have to pay the third way.
PCS Mastercard Coupons is a reloadable prepaid card without a bank account.
So please go to an office near you and take coupons worth €250 each of its coupons.
Sincerely
To your attention,
So please go to a tobacconist or FDJ corner to buy PCS Mastercard coupons.
Once you have the coupons in your possession, please send me a photo of each coupon.
Sincerely,
So please go to a tobacconist and then buy 24 PCS recharge coupons of €250.
Once you have the 24 coupons of €250 PCS, please send me a photo of each coupon.
I keep waiting.
THANK YOU
Sir, please know that without the photos of PCS coupons we could not launch the procedure to cancel your file and in the worst case we could send your file to the prosecutor so that we can issue an arrest warrant for you. against.
Please send us a photo of each pcs coupons you made.
Sincerely,
Me:
I don't understand all of these strange methods you are asking me to use to send payment. And then why are there always problems with your Bitcoin accounts? This has all caused me a lot of extra cost, stress, and difficulty as I already explained to you. So if you have a bank account that can receive the payment then send it to me now. Then I will then ask my brother if he can send the payment to you from his own bank account.Scammer:
sir, I don't know why there is a problem every time for bitcoin we have three accounts but with you nothing works so I will send you the RIB bank details to make the payment once he has made the so-called transfer him to send the transfer receipt and you send me the receipt to confirm that the transfer was made Sir, I will leave you the RIB bank details as an attachment so that you can make the transfer of 6,000 euros once the transfer has been made, send me the receipt

What is the 3rd Bitcoin account?
Scammer:
Sir, we have 3 accounts which are 2 bitcoin accounts and 1 bank account which is the RIB that I just sent you to make the transfer, tell me what you have then make the transfer to the bank account Me:
I have now gotten the block removed on my Bitcoin account so that I can send Bitcoin transfers again. I just sent a small Bitcoin transfer to my brother's Bitcoin wallet to test it out and he received the test transfer from me. So it worked perfectly. Thus, I can confirm to you that my Bitcoin account is fully working again and it can successfully send Bitcoin transfers. So now send me a working Bitcoin wallet of yours so that I can finally transfer the funds to you and be finished with all of this.Scammer:
Sir, I will return the bitcoin account to you if it works normally so I will leave the account with you to be able to make the transfer once the transfer is completed, please send me the receipt to confirm sir, here is the bitcoin account that I will leave with you as an attachment so that you can make the transfer
Bitcoin: bc1qmuqh34glwk2yehyc83gv548rqsp2ecmjw92pls
Me:
That is the same bitcoin account you sent me before. That is also the account I tried to transfer the money to the other day and my transfer was blocked because of fraud and then my account was also locked and I had to pay $100 penalty to my Bitcoin broker. You need to give me a new Bitcoin account which works and which is not flagged for fraud so that I can send the payment to you now.Scammer:
Sir here is a new bitcoin account please make the transfer now once the transfer is made please make it to me from the receiptBitcoin
