Scammer KAS-BK.COM aka Joseph Richardson

This criminal is very active lately, producing lots of artwork. Unfortunately the victims of this scammer are losing money. Also, in the course of the scheme, they have freely given copies of their identity cards, bank accounts and so on.

Here is an email from Joseph Richardson, who is not a banker at all and in no way related to KAS BANK.

Here are some examples of "artwork" by this scammer. First is a fraudulent document promising a huge sum of credit (out-of-the-blue).



Second is a fraudulent form to get access to a fake banking website. Prospective victims of this fraud run big risks when filling in such documents. Surely not because they are legally binding, as they are indeed null and void. Filling in such forms can present real risks, as it is here that the victim freely shares all kinds of personal data. This can lead to identity theft. So, after the advance fee on the scam has been paid, personal data of this victim might be put to further criminal use.
