6/19/2019
I was approached by this man agent westly about having an opportunity to receive a grant. Our whole conversation was via text and through money gram. Mr. Westly promised me that whatever grant I chose, I was to pay that fee: for example, if I paid 1300.00, I would get $45,000.00. I would just have to go to money gram and send the money to a man name $400.00 to a Emeka Ogwuda of Norcross Ga., and the other $900.00 to a Oluyede Olabanji Olasehinde. The first money gram transaction number was #68745645, that did not go through so he wanted me to send the money to an Wells Fargo account # 5707812714, routing number is 111900659. He promised that FEDEX and the delivery team was waiting to deliver my package with 24 hours. When well Fargo would not take my cash, he wanted me to go get a cashier check.
Then he wanted me to spilt the money and send it to:
Oluyede Olabanji Olasehinde
8025 Forest lane
Dallas Texas 75243
After that he changed his mind stating that the money should be transferred from a Walmart to Walmart account. I send the 1300.00 with transaction number ***. That was not right so I had to go back and spilt the money, sending $900.00 to Oluyede Olabanji Olasehinde. The Money gram account for this transaction would be ***. The other $400.00 went to Norcross Ga Via money gram transaction number ***. This guy said that he got my payment late and that why my delivery was delayed. After more excuses he said that if he can’t get this through all funds will be returned to Ministry of Economy & Properties, my Reference number was ***. Now this person wants me to pay him another 4500.00 for the taxes for my $45000.00 grant. He claims that the y have been meetings with the IRS all day and they IRS wants $4500.00 for the taxes on the grant money. I asked him to confirm that this is true, but he did not text me back any longer.
