"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!

Some comments by the Scam-O-Matic about the following email:

An email address listed inside this email has been used in a known fraud before.
This email uses a separate reply address that is different from the sender address. Spammers use this to get replies even when the original spam sending accounts have been shut down. Also, sometimes the sender addresses are legitimate looking but fake and only the reply address is actually an email account controlled by the scammers.
The following phrases in this message should put you on alert:
- ",000,000" (they want you to be blinded by the prospect of quick money, but the only money that ever changes hands in 419 scams is from you to the criminals)
- "00,000.00" (they want you to be blinded by the prospect of quick money, but the only money that ever changes hands in 419 scams is from you to the criminals)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
This email lists free webmail addresses. Use of such addresses is typical for scams. Lotteries, banks and any but the smallest of companies do not normally use such addresses. Criminals use them to anonymously send and receive email at Internet cafes.

Inform me if you donâ€™t understand Spanish writing, so that I can write you with English
Buenos dÃas queridos!

Estoy seguro de que este correo podrÃa estar llegando a usted como una sorpresa ya que nunca hemos visto antes y que tambiÃ©n estarÃamos preguntando por quÃ© he decidido que elegir entre los numerosos usuarios de Internet en el mundo. Vi tu perfil en Internet, que me ha hecho cumplir mi peticiÃ³n.

Soy la seÃ±ora Caroline Freud, el proyecto de ley y el intercambio gerente Cahoot Tesoro del Reino Unido. En mi departamento, descubrÃ una suma abandonada de EE.UU. $ 8,000,000.00 (Ocho millones de $ EE.UU. ), en la cuenta bancaria de nuestros clientes extranjeros (MR Paul Louis Halley) que murieron junto con su esposa en 2003 en un accidente aÃ©reo. VÃ©ase el sitio web para mÃ¡s informaciÃ³n.

http://newswww.bbc.net.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/oxfordshire/4537663.stm

De acuerdo a nuestra Ley de Bancos de 1990, si el dinero no es reclamado despuÃ©s de un perÃodo de diez (10) aÃ±os, es una propiedad del gobierno. Por lo tanto, se ha proyectado para cargar sus datos en nuestro sistema bancario en su propia ley del difunto Sr. Halley, porque Ã©l no se dio por familiares a su cuenta antes de su muerte repentina.

Puedo comprobar esta cuenta durante mÃ¡s de 4-5 aÃ±os y nadie ha presentado para reclamar el fondo. Pero me he dado cuenta que (Late Sr. Paul Louis Halley) no tiene familia o el beneficiario de la cuenta antes de que muriera. AsÃ que, despuÃ©s de pasar por el archivo en nuestro banco. Sinceramente y conscientemente solicitar su consentimiento para presentaros como los familiares / Will beneficiario de esta cuenta, por lo que el valor total de 8,000,000.00 EE.UU. DÃ³lar serÃa transferido a nuestro beneficio mutuo. Voy a compartir el dinero en una proporciÃ³n de 60% para mÃ y 40% a usted.

Quiero asegurarles que no hay ningÃºn riesgo , ya que no se hacen aparecer en persona, y todo el papeleo estÃ© preparado en su nombre por mÃ.

Tu respuesta es una necesidad urgente.

En respuesta, te voy a dar mÃ¡s detalles.

Las respuestas a la direcciÃ³n de correo electrÃ³nico: carolinefreundcahoot@yahoo.co.uk

La espera de su respuesta urgente.

Saludos.
Sra. Caroline
