"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:
- "dear friend" (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- "million united states dollars" (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)
- "jessicadanladi@y7mail.com" (this email address has been used in a known scam)
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.

Dear Friend

I am contacting you based on trust and wish that you will give me the trust I have given to you. I am not looking for anything else but for someone with the fear of Allah and one who understands the spiritual implications of handling money meant for the propagation of Allahs work.

I am Miss Jessica Danladi. of Journal de Pharmacie Clinique here in Ouagadougou the capital city of Burkina Faso and I have an old man with a long time brain cancer problem. His name is Mr. Paul Heiss and 58 years old man also a Switzerland citizen. He was working here in our country but unfortunately for him, got ill that I dont think, he can be alright and Mr.Paul Heiss may not live more than two months. He has gone for his first major operation and survived it and in showing appreciation to Allah for the survival in the operation he now decide to give part of his wealth for the promotion and propagation of Allahs work in the area of Charity.

$10.000,000,00 (Ten Million United States Dollars) which he donated to humanity and this money are meant for all motherless baby home and ophans,all and sundry found in destitute homes and widows. This is a Charity donation from a passionate heart. Contact me via email if you are sincere enough so that I will connect you to his attorney who is in the custody of the depository documents in the bank and please do not reply me if you have no intention of using this fund to what is been planed for or to an ungodly way other than evangelism and affecting lives.

Even though I have not met you in person before but I got a message as I looked at your ID that you will not betray a trust reposed on you. I will inform his Lawyer so that he can arrange for the release of the funds to you. Your most confidentiality in this matter will be appreciated until the task is accomplished, as I don't want anything that will Jeopardize His last wish, due to the fact that He do not want relatives or family members standing in the way of His last wish.

Thanks and may Allah bless you; I do hope to hear from you soon and please do not forget to send your Telephone number, Your Age, your marital Status, Your Occupation and Your Nationality.
