1. The Fake Money Scam
This form is the most common type of wash wash and it usually targets university students and young youths who are eager and hungry for huge amounts of money; hundreds of thousands or even millions.
You meet up with an old age mate from a previous life; the guy looks like he is living the life dressing well and he is even driving while you are a first year or second year student struggling with college life so you ask the guy what his secret to success is.
“You have to be shrewd,” he will say, “I wash money, brother.” So you are curious and you ask him how you can get into business and he tells you that you need materials for that kind of business and those materials require money. Curiosity gets the better of you as he explains further.
First of all, you need money materials: Chemical for a ‘hundred thousand’ worth of material could cost you Ksh.10,000, for Ksh.200,000 material you will need Ksh.20,000 and so on. At this point you are attentively listening and picturing how you can get rich quickly.
He then tells you that he will introduce you to the material supplier then and chemical guy all you just need to do is get the money for the material to be ready. He leaves you overjoyed and you begin to hustle up and down for the money.
You are able to raise Ksh.10,000 so you call him and tell him what you have raised and your friend introduces you to another flashy friend who gives you Ksh.100,000 notes in form of materials.
Now they tell you that those black notes are materials that require chemicals to change into real money and now you need like Ksh.15,000 to buy the chemical. At this point they are talking of buying the chemical from some Indian guy. You become so interested but since you don’t have Ksh.15,000 you either sell that laptop that your parents struggled so hard to buy for your studies or you involve a friend who can raise that kind of money.
You hustle up and down and eventually raise Ksh.15,000 and bring it to your friend who then decides to introduce some other guy who deals with the Indian who sells the chemicals. The guy brings you the chemicals and now you are finally on your way to be Ksh.100,000 richer.
They then take you to a room probably somewhere where you feel safe and show you the trick of changing fake money (the black notes) to ‘real currency’ using the chemicals. First they mix the chemical with water then deep the material inside then dry it.
But the cash that is produced is weak and easily tears off. So they then mix again and place an original Ksh.1,000 note in the middle of two fake notes then wrap it and apply pressure on it for about five minutes then the chemical guy tells you that the material is too strong for the chemical and the chemical won’t be able to produce an original money.
