"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!

Greetings from Mrs.Aisha

I was privileged to come across your contact through my personal check with the GCC Investment Trade Real estate Exhibition portal and I decided that I should establish a communication with you to acquire some information on lucrative investment ideas.

However, I will appreciate if you can be of good assistance to me as I am willing to invest heavily in the gulf or any other market sector provided I will have a good partner or investor as well as fund manager who will guild on this business framework and as thus, share with me on the ROI in any venture which we have considered lucrative to invest in. I have not managed any business before but have always dreamt of running my own establishment hence my desire to recapitalize in the GCC region.

Basically, I am married to late Mutassim Qaddafi, the son of late president of Libya,but at the moment am seeking refuge somewhere in Africa and hopefully will get over this within a couple of months and that is why I want to calve a niche for myself to be able to continue with my life and make my life meaningful when I get citizenship in this country were i reside presently.

Finally, I shall make my strategies/logistics known to you upon your response and acceptance to work with me in my desired investment and trade deal within the GCC region.

Please get back to me as soon as possible for more details

Sincerely,
Mrs.Aish
