"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!

Dear One

I am Nacy Sakit a 24 years girl old from war ravaged SIERRA LEONE but presently domiciled in Abidjan Ivory coast. My father John who before his untimely assassination by the rebels was the Director of SIERRA LEONE Diamond corporation (SLDC).He was killed in our government residential house along side two of my other brothers, two house maids and one government attached security guard fortunately for I, and my younger Brother and mother, we were on a weekend visit to our home town As we got the news of the tragedy. We immediately managed to run into neighbouring Ivory Coast for refuge.

But unfortunately. As Fate would have it, we lost our dear mother (May her soul rest in peace) as a result of what the Doctor called cardiac arrest.

As we were coming into this country, I had some documents of a deposit of $ 8,500...000 USD (Eight million Five hundred thousand USD) made by my late father in a BANK According to my father, he intended to use this fund for his international business transaction after his tenure in office but was unfortunately murdered.

I had located the BANK where the money is been deposited and established ownership. please right now, with the bitter experiences we had in our country and the war still going on especially in the diamond area which incidentally is where we hail from .coupled with the incessant political upheavals and hostilities in this country Ivory coast, I desire seriously to leave here and live the rest of my life in a more peaceful and politically stable country like yours Hence this proposal and request.
I believe you will help me and my brother out of out situation.

Thank You From
Nacy Sakit
