"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: FIRST ALERT:- NEXT MRSVIP/VLANE


* * Hello,

Get ready for one of the Biggest Launch of 2008.

Now the days of Ponzi & Scam are over, After the Sucess of MrsVip/Vlane &
QLx3, "OWS" will be the next Big real earning opportunity with Full proof to
its members. This company is incorporated in Panama! Fully legit.

This program is similar in structure to Vlane Traffic. In that it has a
front end 2*10 matrix you must join, and on the back end it has a passive
income vehicle. The passive income vehicle in this case is a institutional
grade $60 million Forex trading program that has been averaging 15-20% with
some months doing 30%-40% for the last 10 months. They be doing live
webinars and showing you there actual results and how they make their money.
So for those of you who don't like matrix's, just think of it as a monthly
fee you have to pay in order to participate in the passive side.

Do you know $500 compounded for 3 years at 20% per month will earn you
$3,54,401.

You can just join with $60 matrix and use your earning to fund your
Investment account (Passive Side).

This program has been creating a lot of Buzz in the forums the past week.
Main reason is because of the 2*10 community forced matrix. This means that
the first 2046 people will be placed automatically left to right all the way
down the first 10 levels. This will ensure that there are no open spots and
no one will get left behind.

Because this matrix fills uniformly all the way down You will not have to
sponsor anyone in order earn from this matrix IF and here's the BIG IF.
You're one of the first 500 or some to join. Beyond that It will be pretty
tuff.

To give you an idea of how lucrative this matrix can be If your one of the
lucky few who gets in early I have enclosed the company matrix chart.

The matrix has been designed that you only have to pay the $60 one time.
Once you have your first two levels full (just 6 people) you are in profit
in the matrix

level 2 $10
3 $50
4 $400
5 $80
6 $640
7 $320
8 $1920
9 $2,560
10 $33,280
Earning you $40,000 per month

Trust me this matrix will fill very very fast, so you are going to
want to get in as soon as this it goes live.

The admin has predicted that they will have 10,000+ members by the end of
the first 30 days and 30000+ members in 2 months. I'm a little more
conservative than that, and I'll just mention that even if they only get 50%
we have full matrices at that point) and all of us will be full through
level 7-8 within 1-2 Months.

I will be joining under a very good heavy hitter, who has been specially
given position on comnpany's level 2. he will be sending his link to me to
singup, i will place 2 good heavy hitter under me and then i will u the link
to join imemediatly as soon as it goes Live on Friday.

So will be getting spillover not only from Company but from me, my upliner
and my level 2 downline members.

Your matrix will be fill in no time.

Remember people who joined Mrsvip/vlane early are now earning 6 figure
Income every month.

This is a life changing opportunity with just $60 to spare.
