[@sarahberkner]

I'm really glad your dad was alive otherwise that would have been an especially awful thing for them to do. And besides the unlikelyhood of that scam working, it being communicated over a Facebook message makes it even more suspicious.

I can't believe you have so much relatives and friend that want to give you money Ben. You're such a lucky man

[@HobbitHobbit]

Alexander Dover, the jet-setting jeweler with more bling than a disco ball and a passport thicker than a novel, has passed away. Born in 1959, Alexander was a man of sophistication, or as he liked to call it, "blingosophy." With a taste for the finer things in life, Alexander had mastered the art of juggling between Canada, the Cayman Islands, and Brazil, because why settle for one paradise when you can have three? Rumor has it his frequent flyer miles had their own VIP lounge. Married with two daughters, Alexander proudly called himself the King of the Castle, though he admitted his castle is more like a jewelry store meets a tropical resort. His daughters, fashionistas in training, were known to critique his bling choices with an eye for detail that even a jeweler can appreciate. In a twist that even the best telenovela writers wouldn't dare script, Alexander's family had a run-in with the chaotic traffic of Brazil in 2023. A car accident, or as Alexander would have said, "an unexpected tango with fate," led to a family tragedy. But don't let the somber tone fool you; Alexander insisted on keeping things light because, as he use to put it, "laughter is the best jewel in the crown of life." Alexander's sole surviving relative, Ben Dover, holds down the fort in Ogden, Utah. Yes, you read it right - Ben Dover. It seems the Dovers have a knack for names that keep life amusing. So, if you ever needed a laugh or wanted to discuss the most exquisite gems over a cup of Brazilian coffee or a Cayman Islands sunset, Alexander Dover was your man. Because in his world, bling was the answer to everything, and humor is the crown jewel!

[@karicewillis]

Wow, you actually put a lot of indepth detail into this! Most Posters just said the same tired thing,"RIP Alexander Dover. He was truly a remarkable man who passed too soon. Gone but not forgotten. He is resting in Heaven now." But, you actually made him seem like a REAL man, someone you knew personally, like your actual family member or friend! 😯😀

No one really knows what you are made of. But it is the stuff of legend! RIP A. Dover!

[@christiangonzales7429]

I would imagine that most people who do fall for this probably end up not getting scammed because they get frustrated with all of the requests scammers keep making! And why do scammers always say "Kindly" all of the time? Ben, you did a great job investigating each and everything these clowns do!! Keep up the great work and God bless!

[@snooganslestat2030]

Kindly is due to the language. Its commonly used in Nigeria but they don't realise its not used in professional settings like this. Its a very good clue the person using it is a scammer.

Don't send scammers fake IDs, even if it looks ridiculous. Scammers will reuse them and you wont believe how many people will fall for it.

Frustratingly, not all of these people are scammers. My father-in-law finds lost property listed by the State, then conducts estate genealogy to find all of the actual legal heirs for the property that is unclaimed. The process is completely different than what the scammers use and the finder's fee is dictated by the State where the property was declared lost or unclaimed.

Does incogni work quickly or do they stretch it out so you have to keep paying subscription? Like, do they say ‘we have fixed 40 thing, but there’s another 50 things we might be able to fix next month’ and they just keep that going? Considering you promoted the Scottish title company that is a total waste of money, I’m wondering if Incogni is a slow money drain.

[@karicewillis]

It's okay to fall for a scam ONCE, immediately learn your lesson and NEVER fall for a scam again. It's only a problem when you KEEP falling for scams, especially the same scam. I remember a guy saying something like,"I got a message on my computer saying my computer was under attack and I needed to download a certain antivirus Software to save my computer. I was scared, so I downloaded the antivirus Software..... And my computer completely crashed. It turns out, my computer was NEVER under attack, and I just caused it to completely crash by downloading that no good antivirus Software. Today, I got a similar message on my phone, saying my phone is under attack and I need to download an antivirus Software." I panicked again and clicked on download to get the antivirus Software . I had installed a legitimate antivirus Software and my legitimate antivirus Software immediately blocked the scam antivirus Software, preventing my phone from completely crashing like what happened to my computer. I can't believe I fell for the same trick twice. Thank God my legitimate antivirus Software didn't let me download a scam Antivirus Software that would have crashed my phone."
