Re: How does Advanced Fee Fraud works (Nigerian

["Mike Loh" <szeboon () gmail com>]

I think it's more along the lines of requesting for your bank account number
and an advance fee (usually for some administrative detail or another) and
gradually increasing the amount requested... hence advanced fee fraud. I
doubt anyone can use your account number to drain your account, as account
numbers are usually given for other parties to transfer amounts around...
minimally they would need another piece of information (i.e: pin).

Hi

I read this in CASP study guide:

It means if somebody knows my account number (in Europe IBAN) he can get
money? How is this possible?

Alex
