Scammer Attorney Donkiss

Lately I had a contact with a scammer or maybe a phisher, who calls himself Attorney Donkiss. I had been contacted by someone with a name closely to some I know from a haiku circle on Facebook, but the name had been slightly misspelled. As I wanted the contact to a scammer, so I've let it play.

Then I got my new friends message:
I’m doing pretty great, everything is going on well with me also trying to be safe and going away from social activities, have you also benefit from the CAP program yet?
I answered:
I don't wear caps, makes one look like this convicted Trump.
And got this answer:
Good morning!! Don’t tell me you haven’t heard about the ongoing Christian Against Poverty (CAP) program given out to all citizens who need assistance paying for bills.buying a home.starting a Business. going to school. even helping the Old. Retired and Disable Ones. it’s not a loan so you don’t have to pay it back are you aware about this?

Let's stop for a moment:
The program is called Christian Against Poverty (CAP). I've googled it and there an organization called Christians Against Poverty (CAP) that warns against online imposters, already in 2019 [1]. „We are Christians (with an S) Against Poverty. If it reads Christian Against Poverty – fake!“  That was easy!

Then the new FB friend continued:
CAP , was created to help all countries who are suffering from Financial Hardship get Resources, Discounts, Employment, Financial Aid, Coupons,  Even I saw your name on the list and the program is very helpful, I already checked into it and i got the sum of $30,000 from them when i applied for the program. Have you heard of Agent Attorney Donkiss ?

Of course I hadn't, but I searched on Facebook and found an account with the name of „Attorney Donkiss“. A bleak account with 7 followers [2] and a picture of a US general. On Wikipedia you can find the picture connected to Maj. Gen. Steven A. Cray [3]. The picture has been shot by Tech. Sgt. Sarah Mattison and is public domain [4].
The FB friend called him Agent Attorney Donkiss, they usually are called agent. Now we have a Christian organization, which is acting world wide and is presented by an attorney, which has the picture of a US general on his account. Does this make you suspicious? If not, you might be prone to scams or phishing attacks.

The FB friend messaged again:

Attorney DonKiss
Here's the Attorney Donkiss agent Facebook page just click on the link and give them a text that you want to apply for the ongoing cap program and also tell them my name as referral ok

But this in another account of the scammer. I deliberately used the one, I've found myself.

Then I got a reply by Attorney DonKiss, who only writes in capital letters:
GREETINGS SIR. THIS IS AGENT ATTORNEY DONKISS FROM THE CAP FEDERAL GOVERNMENT GRANT...WHAT IS YOUR FULL NAME AND WHO REFFERED YOU TO US?
Again we have agent and the CAP changed from a private christian organization to a federal government organization, which in my case would grant money, which has not to be paid back in a foreign, developed country (Germany).

In the following conversation he explained:
CAP MEANS CHRISTIANS AGAINST PROVERT AND THIS PROGRAM BELONGS TO FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?
I don't think that the omission of the Y in POVERTY is a typo.

He went on:
FIRSTLY I WILL HAVE TO EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT THE PROGRAM IS ALL ABOUT.
And:
THIS IS REAL, LEGAL AND LEGIT SET UP BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WITH THE HELP AND SUPPORT OF THE WORLD BANK TO HELP THE PEOPLE IN THE COUNTRY.
Now, it's the World Bank giving the money.

Later:
THAT'S ONE OF OUR BENEFICIARY THAT JUST GOT HER MONEY DELIVERED TO HER AND SHE WAS THANKING US WE ARE LEGIT, ONCE YOU'RE HONEST YOU'LL GET YOUR GRANT MONEY DELIVERED TO YOU SIR
Who is the beneficiary? But it still is a grant.

A little later:
YOU JUST NEED TO BE HONEST WITH ME AND ONCE YOU'RE HONEST I'M ASSURRING YOU THAT YOU'LL GET YOUR CAP WINNING MONEY
The spammer requests honesty! And the grant is changed into CAP winning money like in a lottery.
He clarified, that I don't have to pay taxes and don't have to pay back the grant by „A CHRISTIAN AGAINST PROVERT FOUNDATION ISSUING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN GRADIENT GRANT MONEY TO VARIETY OF GROUPS EACH YEAR.“ I leave out the lengthy passage.

YOU'LL HAVE TO FILL OUT SOME INFORMATION SO WE CAN [???]
FULL NAME.........................
ADDRESS.......................
STATE...........................
AGE............................
HEARING/DEAF............
OCCUPATION.........
INCOME.......................
DO YOU OWN A HOUSE/RENT....
FED-EX............................
DO YOU WANT CASH OR CHECK...................................
A PICTURE OF YOUR ID FRONT AND BACK PICTURE?.....................
This looked much the same like by a scammer, which contacted me last year.

I'm quite surprised that these scammers succeed and make a living by these scams. As he or they posed as a Christian organization, let's make it clear avarice is a sin, but so is fraud. Avarice in this context means you loose money instead of gaining money. Fraud means, if you're caught you go to jail – rightfully!
