"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!

!!Brilliant way to make $500K with NO Recruiting & Paid $ weekly!!



So many people have been advertising this programme which started at

the beginning of March that I joined yesterday with a one off $45 plus a

small processing charge.



I received $41.50 commission this morning!

This is well worth looking at!

$45 Will earn you $38,000 over the next 28 weeks - Starting in two

weeks.

or

$300 Will earn you $380,000 over the next 28 weeks - Starting in two

weeks.



You don't have to sponsor or recruit anyone - EVER

Yes, you will make that amount of money ABOVE

There are no monthly fees.



THIS IS REAL - DON'T LOSE OUT - EVERYONE IS JOINING



You choose which entry level is best for you - $45 (which is what I and

my sponsor have done) or $300

My first referral has chosen BOTH! http://www.ezwbd.com?133325

You get paid every two weeks without doing a thing! This program is

TOTALLY BRILLIANT

Your income is on autopilot, you don't have to do anything, just sit

back, relax and earn.

Commissions appear in your Int-Gold Account as they clear every two

weeks or you could ask for a ATM card.



Your website will be submitted free to millions around the World. As

part of your membership, you can have your website, or any other website

submitted to over 20 top search engines without ever having to touch your

keyboard.

Think about it ..... You will be getting endless traffic to your site

day after day. That could be worth thousands of dollars in future

commissions to you, on top of all the earnings that you will receive above.



YOU CANNOT - AND WILL NOT FAIL WITH THIS PROGRAM - EVERY MEMBER GETS

PAID THE SAME - EVERY TWO WEEKS, But most important this is a serious

and legal business you will get a 1099 at the end of the year.

THIS IS BRILLIANT!

THIS OPPORTUNITY IS REAL - Don't look back in 28 weeks and wish you had

joined.

Kind regards
