"Theft Case" spam

Note: there are quite a few people called Eric Rapaport, who are perfectly normal people (such as this this one) Unless you are researching a weird spam email, then this is not the Eric you are looking for.

Some spammers are evil. Some spammers are stupid. In the case of Eric Rapaport of Las Vegas, it looks like this particular spammer needs psychiatric help. (Note, there may be other Eric Rapaports - this one lives in Las Vegas).

My first reaction to the following spam was that it looked like a Joe Job - that is a piece of "fake" spam that is constructed to make it look like it comes from an innocent party in order to get them into trouble. My first reaction when I saw this was that it wasn't sent by Eric Rapaport, but by someone out to cause trouble:

Subject: Theft Case - 50% reward on recovered assets.
From: info@Accounting1st.Com
Date: Fri, May 4, 2007 6:43 pm



Nature50 % reward on money recovered from microsoft Employment Fraud, stolen movies and stolen concert proceeds.

This case can also viewed by clicking on: www.AplusSoftware.NET/Theft.HTM or www.TheftCase.Com

Yes, I am formerly commander and director Rapaport of the CIA. The Central Intelligence Agency fired me so that they could get away with bank frauding me for money I made writing small parts of microsofts product line and for money I made writing various movies, with out being prosecuted.

PS. Maybe I should include this in my emails to lawyers.

I practiced law enforcement for free for the 5 years I was in it part time in order so that they would not accuse me of conflict of interest or accepting gratuities for the money I made in the film, computer and music industries. At this point I would rather sue the military for back pay and for denying that my career ever existed rather than be poor the rest of my life.

If we can get the military to admit this then we should be able to get 5 years part time pay at minimum of 70K per year which = $175,000.00

It's structured a little like a 419 "advanced fee fraud" with the promise of s lice of $175,000. Indeed, PCPlus blogged about it some months back with the same conclusion. However, the truth is somewhat stranger than that.

In fact, this spam does appear to come from Eric Rapaport.. and it isn't an advanced fee fraud scam. Attached to the spam is a long and rambling Word document which is where this really gets strange (feel free to scroll to the bottom when you get the picture!).

50 % reward on money recovered from stolen movies / Microsoft Employment Fraud / stolen concert proceeds.
Most of the lawyers I have contacted on the web do not believe the below enclosed mass theft case. Yes it is unbelievable.
In response to this I thought I would describe verifiable things that made me successful in the entertainment and computer industries.
At 12 years old I was accepted to the Aspen Music Festival and School (at this time the Aspen Music Festival and School was about 50 % Juilliard students - the best classical music school in the world). I attended Aspen for 7 summers.
At 14 years old I started sitting in with the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, members of the John Denver Band and Al Cooper ( founder of Blood Sweat and Tears) in night clubs in Aspen. I continued sometimes sitting in with bands of this type for the next 15 years.
At 18 years old I went to the Berklee College of music for one semester (perhaps the best rock and jazz music department in the world).
At 19 years old I realized that I might not ever make a good living in the music business and I started Colorado State University as a Computer Science Major (and took computers extremely seriously).
At the same time I was a computer science major I spent a lot of time playing in night clubs and playing small concerts in Colorado and sometimes around the country.
At 25 and 26 years old I sat in occasionally with the band Kingfish (there were some Grateful Dead members in this band).
Every thing above this line should be verifiable. All in all a good start towards possibly making it big in either the computer or music industries.
In 1994 due to my karate ability I started being a body guard for some celebrities in Beverly Hills.
With 15 – 20 million per leading role you can bet that there are Amnesia causing drugs around to keep people from remembering their business meetings or to even keep people from remembering their own names.
The true mass theft case below is extremely unbelievable. As to why no one is responding to me regarding debts or copies of return checks that I need to prosecute thieves, I can only speculate.
From 1994 through 1997 I made a lot of money writing parts of national software packages, scripts for movies, advisor positions, having roles in monster suites and playing concerts. People even willed me money I don’t remember getting paid for.
In response to this someone slipped me some extremely powerful drugs that caused selective Amnesia and stole a lot of money out of my bank accounts. I even spotted some houses recently that I think I owned.
If I split this money with who ever helps me collect, there could be more than 5 million in it for each of us.
If you do not wish to respond but wish to help, you could have a lawyer who specializes in this kind of thing respond.
I have corrupt co-workers and criminals writing letters in my name and even sometimes steeling mail out of my mailbox therefore, I am finger printing all of my letters.
I would like to remind anyone thinking of intercepting this letter that interfering with the federal mail is a federal offence.

As the spam itself say.. yes, it is "unbelievable".

In fact, absolutely everything matches up and points towards Eric Rapaport. The quoted URL of www.AplusSoftware.NET/Theft.HTM also contains a copy of these allegations. That URL is registered to

Eric RAPAPORT
+1.6265901817
Fax:
9109 W. Sahora #105-G12
Las Vegas, NV 89117-5772
US

And it was registered way back in 2002 to a Louise Rapaport. The homepage of aplussoftware.net indicates an unremarkable small computer business operates from that site (although with a California address). The accounting1st.com domain this email has been sent from is also registered to Eric Rapaport, and has been since 2005. The domain theftcase.com is also in Rapaport's name and was registered in April 2006.

The websites for accounting1st.com and theftcase.com are hosted on 64.136.25.175 along with the domains ericrapaport.com, rapaport1.com, medicalsoftware.ws, 1sthighspeed.com, workorderssoftware.com, computerresumes.net, purchaseorderssoftware.com, and gold1st.com (which are also all registered to Eric Rapaport). There are thousands of other sites on 64.136.25.175 which are probably completely unrelated.

www.rapaport1.net is on a nearby server at 64.136.25.171. 1stdiamonds.com is another Rapaport site.

The spam itself originates from 24.234.81.41 which resolves to a Cox Communications subscriber address in Las Vegas.. where Eric Rapaport lives. Everything seems to point to Eric Rapaport being the person behind this bizarre spam.

The spam itself is unusual in that it has been doing the rounds for some time. This sighting is from November 2005, this one from September 2004, this one from September 2006. Vernsblog [nsfw] has even more information running back to April 2005 (use the search function for more).

Eric - if you're reading this.. I think you need some help.

This is a response to the Blog writers from Eric Rapaport -

If I were claiming to be a former cia director and were not, do you think I would still be walking around unharmed?
You are delusional if you think this.

If I were claiming to have written part of Microsoft's product line and did not then Microsoft would sue and they are not.

If you are nice to them maybe uncle sam or Microsoft will let you sue me for them.

D00d this guy is the real d33l. Check out his resume skillz: http://ericrapaport.com/ and http://www.rapaport1.net/

From the design of the sites it's pretty clear he's that same eric rapaport. And possibly insane, or possibly just a scammer.

I know this is an old post. I got this email today. Same formatting. He's at it again.

My brother got a hard copy of this at work in the late 1990s. It's/he's been around forever.

Alex said...

Just got one of these today. WTF.

Lexi said...

I got one of these today, it has a different layout but sheesh, it's 2019.

pchazzz said...

It's 2020 and Eric is still at it! A sample:

23 million US citizens killed by the US government between Wellington Colorado and Nun Colorado - 23 was the Black Flag confession to me and the number might be 28 million.
(in addition, when I was the head of IA for the US, Northern Colorado was packed full of mass murder cannibal police, mass murder cannibal sheriffs and mass murder cannibal highway patrols. I don’t know what the current state of the problem is.)

Where would you hide 25 million dead bodies? Not to mention that figure is almost 4 times Colorado's population of just under 6 million. Wait! I've got it! Maybe the cannibal sheriffs ate them!

February 2021, another sighting!
A sample:
Yes, I am formerly commander and director Rapaport of the CIA. The Central Intelligence Agency fired me so that they could get away with bank frauding me for money I made writing small parts of microsofts product line and for money I made writing various movies, without being prosecuted. The agency also stole 4-5 congressional Medals of Honor from me.

I initiated the Aldrich Ames investigation.

CMH #1 - Colorado cannibal war
CMH #2 - Arizona cannibal war
CMH #3 – Somalia
CMH #4 – The China incident
CMH #5 - All other over sees ops. Iraq, Yugoslavia, Pakistan, Fiji, Panama, Ect……

Here are your crime tips:
I read that Steven Seagal was accused of multiple counts of rape and it is being investigated by Beverly Hills PD.
In 1996? I got Steven Seagal off of rape charges at his request in Aspen for 1 million to the victim.
I suspected that he might kill his victim and take the money back after he paid so I made sure that her family and CIA Director Tom Roberts had the evidence on the money.
This is true (what I wrote above this line did happen).

Did the following happen?
Did Steven Seagal kill his victim and her family and take the money back with or without CIA director Tom Roberts help?

The following is what Steven Seagal did to me (I have also been a screen written for most of my life.)
I wrote Hard to Kill, Marked for Death and The Patriot 1996 - 400k paid - Steven Seagal has refused to turn over any evidence of the payment. The money was deposited into Nationwide bank uptown Blvd. in Albuquerque which is now Bank of America and the bank will not admit that the check ever existed. This makes Steven Segal and Bank of America guilty of conspiracy to commit bank fraud, conspiracy to commit bank robbery.

I also wrote parts of Above the Law and small amounts of Steven Seagal movies not listed above.
