I, Promise, have the following thoughts/comments on this suspected fraudulent email message from “standardbank981@gmail.com”:
A fraudster by the name “Faith Karabo” is going to lure you to invest in a fictional system. Claims to be working for Expert24trade. So after you have deposited the required start amount, you will get an email (they use different email addresses every time they interact with you) the email will tell you you have made a profit and your profits are ready to be withdrawn. And they will ask you to pay maintainace fees before you get deposited instantly. When you pay that amount another fake document will be sent to you saying you’re because you’re not a resident of USA you have to pay transfer fees for you to get your money. Then authorisation fees.more fees will be required from you. So it’s a never ending cycle of money coming out from you but never from them. And all these fees that you have to pay will keep increasing. They went to a point of even faking standard bank payment documents and created an email account to mimic Standard Bank. You will never get your money back. Please beware.
