Scam Nov 5, 2023

The same Adame Ba konare. This person mailed my in 2021 and I almost signed the contract but I asked for additional ID and then the communication went dead. Now, a few days ago I received a new email asking for a translation of 78 pages from English into Croatian, payment - 12,000 EUR. Definitely ready to be reported to polices authorities
