"419" Scam – Advance Fee / Fake Lottery Scam

The so-called "419" scam is a type of fraud dominated by criminals from Nigeria and other countries in Africa. Victims of the scam are promised a large amount of money, such as a lottery prize, inheritance, money sitting in some bank account, etc.

Victims never receive this non-existent fortune but are tricked into sending their money to the criminals, who remain anonymous. They hide their real identity and location by using fake names and fake postal addresses as well as communicating via anonymous free email accounts and mobile phones.

Keep in mind that scammers DO NOT use their real names when defrauding people.
The criminals either abuse names of real people or companies or invent names or addresses.
Any real people or companies mentioned below have NO CONNECTION to the scammers!

Subject: Cash this money and Donate to UNDP - Urgent

Hello,

I am LIZ,the woman who has been in contact with you long time ago about some funds transfer proposal. Perhaps,you cannot remember me because it has been a long time,but you can at least remember a point in time when you had e-mail contact with a person,this is in the past.

I have been trying to reach you for a long time to inform you that the funds transfer has been completed,just to break the good news to you. I have not forgotten your efforts at that period of time,though,it is short lived because you didn't complete the transaction with me due to some reasons known to you.

There is something I want you to do for me. I ordered my bank to issue a banker's draft in your names and now it is done. The banker's draft is worth £2.6 Million (two million,six hundred thousand British Pounds) only. I want you to get the banker's draft and cash the money,take 25% part of the total £2.6 Million and donate the rest 75% to the United Nations Development Programme in Africa,Mr. Michaels can help you do that donation. This 25% is your reward for helping me at that time,despite that you did not proceed with me in that transaction I have to honour that little efforts you contributed. I wanted to give you the cash but due to a long distance and situations beyond my control I decided to make it in banker's draft so as to allow me an ample time to get in touch with you. I am in Nicargua now for crucial purposes and I will be out of reach for months.

The banker's draft is in the custody of Mr. Michaels,a British UNDP consultant based in Togo. Contact him at the information below:

Contact person: Michaels (a consulting officer at the UNDP office in Togo)
Country: Republic of TOGO (Africa)
Citizenship: British
E-mail : robertmichaels59@yahoo.fr

Contact Mr. Michaels,he knows about you because I left some specific instructions to him before my departure from London.

Thank You.
