These early leadership theories focused on the leader (leadership trait theory) and how the leader interacted with his group members (leadership behavior theories. ) Other trait theories include the contingency trait theory, and leadership member exchange theory.

The Case for Christ

BOOK SUMMARY The Case for Christ Lee Strobel. Pub. Zondervan Publishing phratry About the Author Lee Strobel, Master of Studies in Law from Yale Law School. Award-winning journalist & investigative reporter for 13 yrs. at the Chicago Tribune. Pg. 303. His conduct changes when his wife finds a Christian. He fears he will lose the fun-loving companion and friend he has kn deliver for years, still instead he is surprised by subtle changes in her character. This not only intrigues him but prompts him to learn to a greater extent just about messiah by using the same logical and factual snuggle he follows bit tending as an investigative crime reporter.He starts his learning quest as an unconvinced skeptic. His underlying question is, Can a case for Christ be made beyond a reasonable doubt? To answer this, he sets out on a fact-finding mission. For nearly two years, he interviews numerous subject matter experts and biblical scholars to answer his questions with facts and evidence. His skills in investigative reporting help unc all over the truth regarding the reliability of the gospels. fundament Who is saviour? This comes down to two answers This man was, and is, the Son of God or else a madman or something worse. Part 1 Examining the RecordTimeframe Skeptics Some scholars verbalise the gospels were written so far by and by the events that legend developed and distorted what was finally written down, turning Jesus from merely a sagacious teacher into the mythological Son of God. Pg. 32 Answers The standard scholarly dating is that Acts was written by Luke in A. D. 61-63, because Paul was still living and under thunder mug arrest in Rome. Since Acts is the 2nd of a two-part work, we know the initiatory part the gospel of Luke must bemuse been written earlier than that. And since Luke incorporates parts of the gospel of Mark, that federal agency Mark is even earlier.So if you allow one year for each writing, you end up with Mark written no later t han about A. D. 60, a maximum gap of 30 yrs. after Jesus death. Pg. 34 Thats still within the life eras of unhomogeneous eyewitnesses of the life of Jesus, including hostile eyewitnesses who would have served as a corrective if false teachings about Jesus were going around. Pg. 33. Eyewitness testimony is the key here. The two earliest biographies of Alexander the Great were written by Arrian and Plutarch more than 400 years after Alexanders death in 323 B. C. , yet historiographers consider them to be trustworthy.So whether the gospels were written 60 yrs. or 30 yrs. after the life of Jesus, the mount of time is negligible by comparison. Pg. 33. Character Test The gospel writers had nobody to gain except criticism, ostracism, and martyrdom. The certainly had nothing to win financially. If anything this would have provided pressure to keep quiet, to deny Jesus, to downplay him, even to forget they ever met himyet, because of their integrity, they proclaimed what they saw. Pg. 4 8. Eleven apostles were put to grisly deaths, which show trench conviction for what they believed and were preaching regarding Jesus. Pg. 45 Consistency The gospels are extremely consistent with each another(prenominal) by ancient standards, which are the only standards by which its fair to judge them. Pg. 45 If the gospels were identical or too consistent, this would have raised awareness that the authors had conspired among themselves to coordinate their stories in advance, and that would have model doubt on them. Pg. 45 The Adverse Witness Test Many people had reasons for wanting to discredit this movement and would have through so if they could have simply told history better. Pg. 51. Yet, look what his opponents did say.In later Jewish literature Jesus is vocaled a sorcerer who led Israel astraywhich acknowledges that he really did work marvelous wonders, although the writers dispute the source of his power. They never say he did not work the written miracles. If critics cou ld have attacked the movement on the basis that it was full of falsehoods or distortions, they would have. But, thats exactly what we dont see. Pg. 51 Corroborating evidence outside the Bible Josephus, Jewish historian, A. D. 37-100 Wrote about Jewish wars that have corroborated by other historians and archaeological excavations.Pg. 81 Writes about James, comrade of Jesus, who was called the Christ. Stoned to death in A. D. 62. Pg. 78 Wrote about Jesus the tribe of his Christian followers that had still to this sidereal day not disappeared. Pg. 79 Tacitus, a senator and a historian of the Roman Empire, A. D. 56 117 Writes about Christ suffering extreme penalty during the reign of Tiberius at the detention of Pontius Pilatus. Refers to an immense multitude of Christ followers unstrained to die for their beliefs. Pg. 82 Pliny the Younger, Roman citizen, and provincial governor, A.D. 23-79 Refers to rapid spread of Christianity among all classes of people, as well as Roman citi zens that are sent to Rome for trial. They have high ethical standards and if they repeatedly admit they honor Christ as God they are penalize. Thallus, a Greek historian, wrote in A. D. 52 a history of the Mediterranean world since the Trojan War. Referenced the total darkness at the time of the crucifixion. Pg. 84 Phlegon, a Greek author in A. D. 137 Reported about the greatest eclipse of the sun when it became night at noon in A. D. 33. Pg. 85The Mishnah, the 1st part of the Talmud, an important Jewish work compiled in A. D. 200 regarding Judaisms Oral Law Refers to Jesus as a false messiah who practiced wizardly and was justly condemned to death. Pg. 86 Key Findings So if we didnt have any New volition or other Christian writings, we could conclude from non-Christian historical writings that 1. Jesus was a Jewish teacher 2. Many believed he per takeed healings and exorcisms 3. Some believed he was the Messiah 4. He was rejected by Jewish leaders 5. He was crucified under P ontius Pilate in the reign of Tiberius 6.His followers spread beyond Palestine to in that respect were multitudes of them in Rome by A. D. 64 7. All types of people worshiped him as God. Pg. 87. The Scientific Evidence Archaeology found an inscription from the time of Tiberius, from A. D. 14-37 which names Lysanias as tetrarch in Abila near Damascusjust as Luke had written. Pg. 97 posterior mentions the Pool of Bethesda and details the pool had five porticoes. When archaeologists excavated in this location 40 feet below the ground, they found the pool site and 5 porticoes (walk ways) exactly as keister had described.A fragment copy of John 18 was found in Egypt that papyrologists have dated to about A. D. 125. Pg. 99 Part 2 Analyzing Jesus The someoneal identity Evidence of Gospel Writings The cross Pontius Pilate inscribed INRI, an acronym for Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews. Pg. 135 The Psychological Evidence Gary Collins, Dr. in clinical psychology. People suffering for m psychosis display inappropriate emotions such as anxiety, depression or even anger. Jesus did not display any such emotions nor did he exhibit the misperceptions that gadfly people suffering from psychosis. Jesus did not show any symptoms of mental illness.Jesus supported what he utter by his actionshealing, raising people from the beat(p) and the casting out of demons. Pg. 153 Prophesy Fulfillment Louis Lapides, Jewish convert to Christianity. Grew up thinking Jesus was more derogatory than anything else. After returning from Vietnam War, he experimented with various religions and drugs. Was challenged about his disbelief in Jesus which led him to read the Old Testament prophesies. Was amazed of all the prophesies that Jesus fulfilled Isaiah revealed the manner of the Messiahs birth (of a virgin) Micah pinpointed the adorn of his birth (Bethlehem)Genesis and Jeremiah specified his ancestry (a descendent of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, from the tribe of Judah, the house of David ) The Psalms foretold his betrayal, his accusation by false witnesses, his manner of death (pierced in the hands and feet, although crucifixion hadnt been invented yet), and his resurrection (he would not decay but would ascent on high) and on and on (p. 179). Lapides goes on to earn a bachelors degree in morality and a master of divinity of theology. Pg. 173 Part 3 Researching the ResurrectionTo establish that Jesus rose from the dead, one must first establish that he died on the cross. The aesculapian Evidence The gospels tell us that Jesus sweat blood. And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was care drops of blood falling to the ground. Luke 2244 Dr. Metherell, M. D. & PH. D. in Engineering. Pg. 193 In severe cases of anxiety, the body releases chemicals that break down the capillaries in the sweat glands. As a result, theres a minute amount of bleeding into these glands, and the sweat comes out tinged with a very small amount of blood. Pg. 195Accordin g to the Dr. , when Jesus was nailed to the cross, his arms would have immediately been stretched about 6 inches in length, and both shoulders would have become dislocated. This fulfilled the Old Testament prophesy in Psalm 22, which foretold the Crucifixion hundreds of years before it took place and says, My bones are out of joint. When Jesus suffocated on the cross, a Roman soldier indorseed it by thrusting a spear into his side, which likely went finished his lung and into the heart. When the spear was pulled out, clear fluid and a large volume of blood would have come out.Clear fluid from the lung and large amounts of blood from the heart. This was confirmed in John 1934 when John reported he saw blood and water come out Jesus side when the spear was removed. Pg. 199. The Dr. testified there would be no question that Jesus was dead at this point. Pg. 200. To speed up death, Romans would use a steel shaft to shatter the victims lower leg bones. This would prevent the victim fr om pushing up with his legs to breathe. Jesus legs were not broken, because the soldiers already determined that he was dead, and they just used the spear to confirm it.John 1932-36 This fulfilled another Old Testament prophesy about the Messiah, which is that his bones would remain unbroken. Ps 3420. Pg. 200 Roman soldiers had all incentive to ensure crucified prisoners were dead when removed from the cross, because they would be put to death if a prisoner escaped. Pg. 201. Last of all, if Jesus did not die, and he somehow walked outdoor(a) from the tomb, he would have been in such poor condition and looked so pitiful that his followers would have felt sorry for him and try to nurse him concealment to health.They would never have been prompted to start a worldwide movement based on the hope that someday they too would have a resurrected body like his. Pg. 202 The Evidence of the Missing Body Joseph of Arimathea takes to body of Jesus, puts it in a tomb, the tomb is visited by a small group of women followers of Jesus early on the Sunday morning following his crucifixion, and they find that the tomb is empty. They see a vision of angels saying that Jesus has risen (p. 215). Recorded in Acts 1329-31 and prophesied in Ps. 1610. Pg. 219.In the earliest Jewish writings, there was nobody claiming the tomb still contained Jesus body. The question always was, What happened to the body? The Jews proposed the guards of the tomb fell asleep, while the Christians proclaimed the guards were paid off to keep quiet. Pg. 221 The site of Jesus tomb was known to Christian and Jew alike. If it were not empty, it would have been impossible for a movement founded on belief in the Resurrection to have come into existence in the same city where this man had been publicly executed and buried. Pg. 20. The Evidence of Appearances Paul 5 B. C. 67 A. D. Wrote in both 1 Cor. 91 and in1 Cor. 158 where he personally encountered the resurrected Christ. Pg. 228. Persecuted Christians until his conversion sometime in A. D. 33. Refers to the fact that Jesus was a descendant of David, that he was the Messiah, that he was betrayed, that he was tried, crucified for our sins, and buried, and that he rose again on the third day and was seen by many peopleincluding James, the brother of Jesus who hadnt believed in him prior to his crucifixion. Pg. 8 1 Corinthians 158 is part of an early church creed. In this portion of Scripture, the post-resurrection Jesus is said to have appeared to Peter, the twelve, plus more than five hundred people some of whom were still alive at the writing of this epistle. People reading this at the time could still check with eye witnesses and question them if they wanted to confirm what it said. Pg. 229. This creed can be traced back to about A. D. 32 to 38 which subject matter it lends it credence as primitive, unembellished testimony about Jesus appearing to skeptics like Paul and James Pg. 30. Then they go on to cover the numerous sig htings by other eye-witnesses mentioned in the gospels and the book of Acts. Pg. 234. Were the appearances hallucinations? Dr. Gary Habermas, PH. D. , considered expert on the resurrection. He refutes the theory that the appearances were hallucinations because a hallucination is an individual experience that happens to one person at a time. Pg. 238 The Circumstantial Evidence J. P. Moreland, PH. D. Professor and author. When Jesus was crucified, his followers were discouraged and depressed.They no longer had confidence that Jesus had been sent by God, because they believed anyone crucified was anathemise by God. They also had been taught that God would not let his Messiah suffer death. So they dispersed. The Jesus movement was all but stopped in its tracks. Pg. 246 Then, after a short period of time, we see them abandoning their occupations, regathering, and committing themselves to spreading a very specific messagethat Jesus Christ was the Messiah of God who died on a cross, retu rned to life, and was seen alive by them. Pg. 247 And when youve got eleven credible people with no ulterior motives, with nothing to gain and a lot to lose, who all agree they observed something with their own eyesnow youve got some difficulty explaining that away Pg. 247. The Conversion of Skeptics The gospels tell us Jesus family, including James, was embarrassed by what he was claiming to be. Later the historian Josephus tells us that James was stoned to death because of his belief in his brother. Why did Jamess life change?Paul tells us the resurrected Jesus appeared to him. on that points no other explanation. Pg. 248 Saul executed Christians when he had the chance. Suddenly, he doesnt just ease off Christians but joins their movement. He writes that he saw the risen Christ and heard Christ appoint him to be one of his followers. Pg. 249 Revolutionizing Jewish Life for followers of Jesus Immediately after Jesus death, 10,000 Jews were willing to give up five key practices that had served them sociologically and theologically for many centuries 1.Jewish people no longer offered sacrifices they had been doing since the time of Abraham and Moses 2. You dont become an upcoming Jewish member simply by keeping Moses laws. 3. Worshipped on Sunday (when Jesus rose) instead of Saturday, a 1500 year tradition. 4. Began to worship Jesus as God (trinity) 5. The Messiah was someone who suffered and died for the sins of the world, whereas Jews had been trained to believe that the Messiah was going to be a political leader who would destroy the Roman armies. Pg. 251 polishSo lets revisit the underlying question of this book, Who is Jesus? Lee Strobel concluded the evidence of history and his own experiences was too strong to ignore. He made a personal decision to receive Christ. Later, his five-year-old daughter went up to his wife and said, Mommy, I want God to do for me what hes done for Daddy. This book has helped strengthen my faith in Christ, by highlightin g many intriguing historical facts and evidence that corroborates what is written in the Old and New Testament concerning Jesus.I will end with the books last paragraph which cites a quote from C. S. Lewis, an atheist and skeptical Cambridge University professor who was eventually won over by evidence for Jesus. C. S. Lewis is most notably known for his best-selling book series The Chronicles of Narnia. I am trying to prevent anyone saying the really absurd thing that people often say about Him Im ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I dont accept His claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. A man ho was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a swashbuckleror else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon or you c an fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to. Pg. 271.

From Garden City to Garbage City, Bangalore Essay

A metropolis well reputed as the randomness Technology (IT) capital of India, home to many well recognized educational and research institutes like the Indian Institute of Science (IIS), Indian Institute of Management (IIMB), Indian Institute of Fashion Designing (IIFD), Bharat Electronics express (BEL), National Institute of Medical and Health Sciences (NIMHANS), Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), Indian Space Research organisation (ISRO), with Infosys and Wipro headquarters, a city fondly nicknamed the Silicon Valley of India is the second fastest growing and developing Indian city. Listed fourth among the top 15 cities contributing to Indias overall GDP it is the country most favorite(a) by the entrepreneurs all over the world. Bangalore is famous as the tend City of India because of its gentle climate, broad streets, greenery and the presence of public parks, such as Lal Bagh and Cubban Park. Regular flowers shows and biannual flowers shows are held at the Lal Bagh garden s during the week of land Day (26 January) and Independence Day (15 August) which attracts thousands of tourists from all over the world.see moreessay about bangaloreRecapturing my memory, 20 years ago, Bangalore was a small halli (village) surrounded by many small villages with rich fields which was the important solid ground for Bangalores salubrious and fantastic climate. Trees were planted on either sides of the roads which added to the attractive and calm down atmosphere. The roads were deprived of any kind of noise, motor vehicles and pollution. Bangalore was completely surrounded by green carpets. there were innumerable tanks, ponds and lakes all around. All this may sound like a story but this was how soaked Bangalore was in terms of its greenery and beauty. One would wake up listening to the chirping of birds, feel the cool and pleasant wind blow over their face. The air was pure and rejuvenating. But today Bangalore, Indias showpiece city for its salubrious climate and beautiful gardens is struggling to keep up its label of The Garden City Of India.The reason behind this being the encroachment of agricultural land for industrialization, construction and development, all of which lead to unexpected, unplanned and miry change in the Garden City. Holocaust of trees and vegetation occurred when road widening, laying of electric and telephone lines, brass section of industries, buildings and construction of private colonies began. In less than 12 years the Garden City was converted into a globalised IT capital. All the beauty, the charm, the charisma thatBangalore once had being the Garden City of the country appears only in books and is illogical in the history.But today the scenario is topsy turvy. And my sweet memories turn bitter when I look at the scenario now. walk of life down the lanes the only thing that catches ones eye sight are the tall lurch scrapers, slums, barren lands with mountains of waste and vast stretches of colonies. The re is rarely any patch of greenery left on the grounds of a city which was once called the Pensioners Paradise. BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike or Greater Bangalore City Corporation) is responsible for the fail-safe disposable of the tonnes of waste generated by the citys residents.Karnatakas capital city generates more than 4500 tonnes of drool everyday which is transported to the outskirts of the city to the landfills of Doddaballapur, Mandur and Mavallipura. The committees around these areas have borne the brunt of the citys garbage, poisoning their environment and succumbing to innumerable diseases. With the inaccessibility of any further landfills, and the negligence by the BBMP, Bangaloreans have begun to dump the erratic garbage collection on the road sides. All this is a by- product of the use and throw culture. Even the road dividers are non spared. The drains, the pot-holes are over- flowing with the wastes. All this is turning into a grave environmental and p ublic hazard. Animals are destruction on a large scale by consuming p plumpic instead of grass, there is widespread of epidemic among the flora and fauna, climatic conditions, rainfall pattern are getting disturbed.The root cause of the hassle begins at household where people fail to segregate the mischievous(organic) and dry(inorganic) waste. This adds to the burden of spending additional money in separationism. The other culprit has been the nexus between the civil Government and the private contractors who have failed in their promise to manage and collect the waste on time. To curtail the situation BBMP had announced mandatory dry and wet waste segregation for every household. But peoples negligence forced the BBMP to withdraw its order. A feverish hunt is on for hundreds of acres of land to accommodate the 5000 odd tonnes of garbage generated daily by the citys eight million population. People blame the contractors and the BBMP for notgiving timely expediency to them and the authorities blame the general public for not taking interest in waste segregation at their home. The blame game is on. It is not that the BBMP has insufficient technology or incapability to handle the waste. some(prenominal) the local public and the Government should cooperate and hold hands with each other during such a crisis. Tieing up with NGOs and private firms to turn the waste into energy or manure is one such taproom to help tackle this problem. Setting up of biogas plants to treat the waste into compost, regular collection and picking up of waste, educating the masses can act as the anchor for BBMPs sinking ship.The city once called the Garden city is in knee- deep trash today. The tree population is only 17 per 100 people. 74% of the citys lakes and 66% of the citys vegetation has been stripped off in the last few years. The sad and bitter truth is that garbage has replaced greenery. It high time that the new Government finds a permanent solution to this garbage mena ce and bring back the green tag and to prevent shuffling Bangalore from getting buried in the mounds of stinking and filthy garbage.

If We Go Through The Poem We Will Get The Glimpse

Animism was the first Indian poet to catch and voice these trends in his poetry. As a modern poet in India, he started to voice his own thoughts and opinions, his own experiences, which were the experiences of the e actually man.. In entirely his creative works he was very keen to select Indian berths and present them with a stringently Indian attitude. He was not for idealism and romanticism, the soft and beautiful aspects of spiritedness. He highlighted the reality of Indian life with its teleph iodin numberterness ,hypocrisy and bits of sweetness through the lives of common people.The characters of is poems atomic number 18 from different walks of life but without a bit of exaggeration. We feel and experience the Indians and Indian culture, Indian tempera workforcet through each and every character and situation in the poems. If we go through the poems we will get the glimpse about south Asian conjunction and their cultures and politics. Animism Ezekiel creates an authentic flavor of India by his use of Indian incline. The Indian flavor has created by stressing various mistakes which Indians pull in in their use of English. Animism Ezekiel is entirely Indian not only in sensibility but as well as in proper use of Indian attitudes.In the Very Indian Poem In Indian English the common mistakes committed by Indians in using English and other Indians are freely engaged to create the typical flavor with an artistic purpose In a realistic way. This has started giving with a ironic title. In this poem, very sit few lines indicate that there is going on governmental unrest or chaotic moment in society. l am standing for peace and non violence. wherefore world is fighting fighting After uttering these line he tells that why we are not following Mahatma Gandhi.He has taken the great Indian character in his poem who stood for peace. He also tells us that we are all in all away from our ancient culture. He also used 200%, 100% and very colonial language to sarcasm and to indicate that modern generation are so far away from our ancient culture. neo generation are cherishing foreign cultures, fashion and neglecting their own culture. So he uses these Irony towards modern generation. except modern generation is neglecting Too much going for fashion and foreign thing He also satire the political leaders ,because their allured speech much than their works.Perhaps he has wanted to say that whatever they tell, they doesnt turn it into org. He also stairs their way of behaving and he is also taken glimpse of their speech that Friends, Romans, countrymen, am utter Lend me the ears. The regrettable thing in the modern world is the act of violence and anti amicable tendencies proving to be a menace. Still the positive aspects like regeneration, remuneration and contraception could be thought of as a way out of the present muddle. One can certainly hope for the better and dissipate the best that is thought as unique.He has also very apt ly shown us the Indian picture-Lassie can be taken as equivalent to he western wine if only a little coarseness is added to make it a lovely drink. The poet confesses that he is the total abstainer from drinks date it is taken by addicts to blast themselves, he for his part would turn to simple drinks like lassie. Thus, the poet tries to receive the senescent Gandhi days. We can assume by this poem that there are clash between county to county, and country to country to rule over integrity another. It has become a trend of every country.So to come out from this poet is urging that if only one count the other as the brother then the trend could be changed.. He gives the hand of friendliness to the visitant and expects him to come again. The poet is optimistic when he says that he enjoys every moment of good company. So, he ends the poem by saying that he does not feel the necessity of celebrating ceremonies. Animism Ezekiel has picked up the typical picture of Indian subcontine nt very dexterously through the poem Conga. By depicting conga he has shown us how wealthy socio-economic class people fell pride on lower class people treating them very badly as their goods.Animism Ezekiel has depicted very common and true future Of society in very much raise and funny way that how wealthy people neglecting harassing, torturing on their servant. The poem Conga has started that we pride for our benignity to servant and their generosity is that they give a chance to a prostitute woman to work at their houses. Miss Ezekiel ironically has given a pathetic description of servant how they are treating in the society. precisely even in our society servant are the victim of sexual harassment. So there is a question arise that is it pride that a prostitute works at wealthy men houses.It is a poke to upper class people. They give them a cup of tea which they eve preserved from preceding evening. They give tem stale chapatti and give old clothes by which they could exch ange a cup,etc. They give one coins and take it return. So it has been a trend of upper class that they feel comfort, enjoy by dictatorial them like that way. But these men never learn because of their poverty. Perhaps poet wants to tell though we are seeming greater man by possessing these things but we are in darkness. Because we are wanting to be work reaming them unlearned and uncivilized So it is a slap to moral civilization.The poem Guru portraits the modern picture of the Gurus who are more terrestrials than ever and above ordinary men the lesser considered as holy men while they totally lack all the virtues of saints. They make a sharp discrimination between the rich and the poor, men and women, countrymen and foreigners. The following lines show characteristically Indian touch which becomes an irony on our part The saint, we are told, erst lived a life of sin nothing spectacular, of course, Just the usual things. We smile, we are not surprised. Unlikely though it seem, we too one day May grow up like him, dropping our follies like old clothes or creeds.

This type o f crime has become real common in modern times and umpteen people cede been conned funds and other valuables. This kind of crime has grown to be high profile to the extent that governments roughly the world argon devising and implementing strategies and policies in a move to curb this kind of crime. Some of the virtu in ally common types of internet crime include financial theft, fraud, intellectual property theft, industrial espionage, spamming, spread of computer virus, softw atomic number 18 hacking among others (Grabosky, 2006).This paper leave alone review the Nigerian Money Scams also called Advanced Fees phony or 419 Scams. The Nigerian scam is one of the most popular types of internet scam around the globe. It has been described as the widest ranging, cleverly planned and bizarre fraud schemes in the world in the recent years. The Federal way of Investigations (FBI), Interpol and Scotland Yard describe it as preposterous, amateurish and plainly crude (Lohr, 1992). The scam involves the sending of bogus garner with a promise of big pay offs.The target of this fraud usually receives an Email that claims to be from Nigeria or another West African country. Initially its target was businessmen but these days, the target also includes number citizens due to the low cost associated with email communication and transactions. The content of the email includes an illegal proposal, a money laundering proposal or a legitimate and legal business proposal. It includes offers of help whereby the vector wants whatever assistance in shipping out oil from Nigeria, romance, some supposedly deposited money in your explanation, a bequest left a will in your name.Others include claims overpayment of a contract by the Nigeria presidential term and therefore a need of a front man to get the overpayment out of Nigeria or an demand to transfer a huge pith of mon ey, usually in US Dollars to your personal offshore account (Nigerian scams, 2000). After the recipient of this message responds positively, the transmitter then proceeds to advice him what else he requires to do. The purpose of the initial letter is to set the stage and is considered the opening ground to test the waters.Goal of the criminal The main intention of the criminal is to play a joke on you into thinking that whatever you are being drawn into is a lucrative business opportunity and a highway into instant riches. Even though, the arrangement appears questionable but very few people attend to at it that way. Therefore the first letter fudges sure that the recipient is left with no doubts and that he or she is assured, and confident of the fact that the deal will be very success and that he is not in no way risking himself or herself.The allegations presented by these scammers are in such a way that you will be naturally cautious but deep down you, you will be praying s oftly and missing hopefully that the deal is genuine. Another element associated with these emails is a sense of urgency (Gill, 2005). Either that the government is gag law in or that the job of the sender is at risk. Therefore, his request is that the deal whitethorn be closed in(p) as son as possible. Their methodology is that they make sure that the recipient of the mail counts him or herself favourable because he has been singled out from billions of people the world over.And so as much as this deal may look suspicious, the receipt is left with the urge of gaining millions of shillings for doing what? Absolutely nothing. Even to the most skeptical people, they take the abutting step or sending an email, which will not cost you every risk at all and in return, might make you a multi millionaire. The feeling that being a rich man is barely an email away is what makes people respond to this mail. After making that call or sending the email, the sender p moves with you to mak e this as secret as possible because he or she is taking a slap-up risk in communicating with you.He emphasizes on the secrecy in that any disclosure might lead to the transaction of the transfer of funds being incomplete. As the recipient, you dont see any hurt in maintaining secrecy, confidentiality, utmost sense of purpose and maturity as it is what it will be asked of you by the sender (Lohr, 1992). After this communication, documents actually arrive to you. Official documents from the central bank of Nigeria together with documents from the firm of your newly institute Nigerian lawyers. This is what convinces most people of the authenticity of the proposal as they contain the Nigerian Government earn head (Gill, 2005).After you are satisfied of the authenticity of the transaction, you are then asked to pay some money to run for unexpected taxes or contract fees demanded by the central bank of Nigeria, transfer of funds fees or fees to render for the attorneys acting on your behalf. The sender assures you that those are things that he is not in control of. For example, he may tell you that the lawyers want 5% of the whole money or $200,000 in get ahead in hallow to continue with the transfer. Being a wise person, you smell a rat and interpret no way.It is then after sometime that the sender contacts you again and tells you that he has been able to negotiate with the lawyers and they get hold of brought down their fees to recite $100,000. He convinces you that it is nothing compared to what you two are going to gain. solely since you are a wise person, you say no way (Lohr, 1992). It is then that he calls you again and tells that even though he is a deplorable guy, he is ready to sell his only house to raise $30,000 if you are in a aim of raising the rest. He cannot forget to remind you that it is a loan he has advanced to you and that you will generate it to him once you receive the money.Here, you see the commitment and you ultimately send the money and you wait for your cash. You even take planning for holiday. After two days, you are informed that there fox been some few problems and that the inner(a) man is asking for a small bribe. After paying the initial amount, you become the ultimate draw cow. More requests start coming your way for you to send in more money. At this juncture, you are approach with two options either send more money as demanded or risk loosing the promised millions and the money you have already sent.In this way, you are a prey and tens or even hundreds of dollars may be swindled from you (Gill, 2005). Each amount of money that you send is regarded as the last amount but eventually, there rises some temporary difficulties, errors or complications that you are prompted to solve. This may go on for months until you run out of money or until you give up. But these scammers will not stop there. If you show signs of giving up, they remind you of the ultimate prize awaiting you. The asking of thes e advance fees is the ultimate objective of this scam.Thats why it is referred to as the Advance Fees Fraud (Gill, 2005). Once a victim has sent in more and more cash, he gets hooked up to the scam and the more he believes that it is not a scam but that it is a real deal. The denial of most victims that they have been conned is what drives them to make just one more payment and their windfall happens (Nigerian Scams, 2000). There are even instances whereby one is invited to Nigeria and you are taken through real or fake government offices. The fake government offices include many government support staff and you are left with no doubt.In some instances, victims have confessed going to the directory, face up the number of the alleged government officiate and finding it there. On calling, it is received by the very same person who he has been in contact with. There are some victims who have been invited to go to Nigeria. They are told that a Visa is not necessary and in that case, t hey bribe an airport official for you to interpose Nigeria. On entering you are told that it is illegal to be in Nigeria without a passport (which is true) and this is used to squash more money from you (Lohr, 1992). Mechanism to discourage these crimesThe federal bureau of investigations has but in some mechanisms in bid to stop these fraudsters. The FBI has warned the public to be wary and not fall into this trick. In this regard, the public has been warned to be skeptical of any email or letter from persons claiming to be Nigerian government officials or any other foreigner asking for help with regard to transfer of large sums of money. The public has also been informed not to believe in the promise of large sums of money once they cooperate (FBI, 2010). Many countries have put in legislations that require citizens to report any form of 419 emails.In general, the governments all over the world are committed to ending this vice. There have also been developments of profit Techn ologies which aim at stemming the advancement of the Nigerian Advanced Fee Fraud scams. Through the use of this technology, law enforcement officers are in a place to cooperate internationally and therefore are able to track these scammers, obtain the necessary evidence and prosecuting them (Lohr, 1992).
