"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!

However, my Late Father Jimmy Lemi Milla was the Minister of Cooperative and Rural Development in the Government of Southern Sudan.

Please I'm consulting you for my personal investment plan which I would like to discuss with you and know the possibility of how we can co-operate and work together to carry it out as business partner.

Please if you have idea of any business in your country where we can invest the sum of USD$12.5Million, which I inherited from my late parent, kindly reply me urgently and we will discuss on how to achieve this effectively.

However, after the death of my parent, I decided to diversify my investments outside my country due to the crises for the own future. For your kind assistant, I'm willing to offer you the 30% of the total amount for your assistance, while the balance shall be my capital investment in your country once I come over.

I am expecting to read from you soon.Yours Sincerely,Anne Jimmy Lemi.
