"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!

My quest to locate a responsible person to bring my dreams
to a reality, hence l took this bold step to contact you
through this medium and I would not like you to take an
offense that l am bothering you since you do not know me

England, United Kingdom; wife to the late Gerald Jordan, I
have no family no kids, I lost my husband and my only two
kids in a motor accident five years ago it's so sad for me
right now, I am very ill with cancer and my doctors says I
have short time to live, I have decided to give my wealth to
an honest person that will use it to do charity work. I have
being suffering from cancer for years now and just recently,
my doctor diagnosed me and told me I will not live more than
next three months. Having known this, I have to sell all my
properties which amounted about $18.5million which have been
deposited with a Bank here in Europe.

I have decided to donate this fund to charity, orphanage or
an individual that will utilize this money in a godly way. I
want an individual that will use this fund for charity,
orphanages and widows etc. I took this decision because I
don't have any child that will inherit this fund. As I do
not want a situation whereby this money will be used in an
ungodly manner, Hence the reasons of taking this bold
decision. I am not afraid of death because l have lived a
fulfilled life. As it is right now, I don't need any
telephone communication in this regard because of my health
condition and will want our dealing to be on email
conversation. I will give you all the details and directives
on how to claim the fund as soon as I receive your reply on
this my private email

N.B: Please note that any delay in your reply will give me
room to sourcing for another person. please reply to my
