"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:

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:
- "million 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)
- "remain blessed" (scammers in West Africa like to use religious phrases)
This email message is a "dying widow" scam.

me that i have cancer problem. (cancer of the lever and i have partial
stroke before) So i don't know now for how long i am going to be here
in this earth.Having known my condition I decided to donate this the
little fund which i have to (5.7 Million Dollars and i want you to
utilize this money the way I will instruct you. I want little fund to
be use for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to
endeavor the house of God is maintained. I took this decision because
I dont have any child that will inherit this little fund and my
husband relatives are not Christians and I dont want my efforts to be
used by unbelievers. I dont want a situation where this little fund
will be used in an ungodly way,

My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever
that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth.

lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace. Please i know that
you will be honest and trustworthy to me during all my transactions
with you, because this transaction involves God's love for humanity, I
hope that you will be completely honest and use this fund to
propergate the word of God.
