"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!

Barbara Moyer is my name and am 62 of age. My home address is 9727
Touchton Rd #1116 Jacksonville, Florida 32246, United States, am thinking
of relocating since i am now rich. I was one of those that took part in
the Compensation in Nigeria many years ago and they refused to pay me. I
had paid over Twenty Thousand USD while in the US trying to get my fund
but all to no avail.

So I decided to travel down to Nigeria with all my compensation documents,
and I was directed to meet Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman, who is a member of
COMPENSATION AWARD COMMITTEE which i did contacted him and he explained
everything to me. He said whoever is contacting us through emails are
fake.

He took me to the paying bank for the claim of my Compensation payment.
Right now I am the happiest woman on earth because I have received my
compensation funds of USD1,200,000.00. Moreover, Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman
showed me the full information of those that are yet to receive their
payments were i was able to see your name and your email address as one of
the beneficiaries on the list , that's why I decided to email you to stop
dealing with those people, they are not with your fund, they are only
making money out of you. I will advise you to contact Rev. Dr. Dale
Delgeman.

Send him the following details if you know you are ready to have your
FUNDS so that as soon as he receive your information he will send to you
the payment details for sending him the three hundred and forty five USD
that is needed for him to get the document that is needed.

Full Names:
Address:
zip Code:
Country:
Telephone Number:
Age:
Marital Status:
Occupation:

You have to contact him directly on this information below.

COMPENSATION AWARD HOUSE
Name : Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman
Email: delgeman@yandex.com

You really have to stop dealing with those people that are contacting you
and telling you that your fund is with them, anyway it is not with them,
they are only taking advantage of you and they will dry you up until you
have nothing.

The only money I paid after I met Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman was just Three
Hundred and Forty Five USD for the paper works, take note of that.

Once again stop contacting those people, I will advise you to contact Rev.
Dr. Dale Delgeman so that he can help you to deliver your fund instead of
dealing with those liars that will be turning you around asking for
different kind of money to complete your transaction.

Thank You and Be Blessed.
Barbara Moyer.
