Hi:

I am writing to ask your insight in what has happened to me.

I have been scammed by a lamer. I filed a complaint in my nearest Police Station but the Police says there is nothing to do.

This is what happened:

My Dad has Alzheimer's Disease and we need to access his company email but he didn't remember the password. After trying to recover it to no avail I tried online. There were a lot of scams over there but I found one page that seemed legit and paid $80 dollars for the recover. Never gave me the password.

I went to the police station to file a complaint because the email is ours and I can prove it (I was not hacking anybody's account). I could file it but the Police said there was nothing to do. The scammer is from Colombia.

I am upset with myself because I can't believe this has happened to me. I thought I was internet-savvy for this kind of things.

So what I want with this post is:

1) Give you information about the scammer. This is his page: http://hackeremail.biz or http://hackeremail.com.co. His false name is Ing. Camilo Saavedra but the payment is through Western Union and to a differente person (different name each time, as I have contacted with other people affected).

2) Ask if there is anything I can do. As the police has told me I can't I have little hope but what do you think?

Thanks.

Never ever pay with western union. It is laundry service. You will never get your money back, i am sorry about your loss and the issue as a whole!

That is ridiculous, and I am beyond sorry for what happened to you. People are sick, and I know the feeling of being scammed as I get a lot of them trying to from outside countries to do IT work for my business. They never give up, and only accept payments through invoice with western union. I hope you get your money back somehow. As for the thief, he shut his site down to protect his identity and apparently is tracking you if he knows you're advertising him out there.

Sorry to hear about your situation.

If it is your dad company email, cant you ask your dad to talk to company IT department to reset the password?? By getting 3rd party "recovery" service, basically is hacking activity. It is surely illegal from the eye of your dad company.
