"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!

The consignment is right now in United State of America, my Late father business partner Mr.Richard Mcwilliams, who was suppose to receive this consignment was asking for 50% which I and my mother did not agree on for any reason,that is why we have to stop the delivery to him immediately.We are ready to give you 30% from the total money because that was the initial agreement we had with my late father partner, Mr.Richard Mcwilliams before he later change his mind because of his greed which is the reason why we had to stop the delivery to him.

If you are willing to help us receive this consignment, all you just have to do is to contact the shipping company so that they can give you instruction to their agent holding the consignment in United State Of America.
