"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!

Some comments by the Scam-O-Matic about the following email:

An email address listed inside this email has been used in a known fraud before.
This email uses a separate reply address that is different from the sender address. Spammers use this to get replies even when the original spam sending accounts have been shut down. Also, sometimes the sender addresses are legitimate looking but fake and only the reply address is actually an email account controlled by the scammers.
The following phrases in this message should put you on alert:
- "million us dollars" (they want you to be blinded by the prospect of quick money, but the only money that ever changes hands in 419 scams is from you to the criminals)
- "united state of america" (this email uses bad English)
- "barrister" (Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.
This email lists free webmail addresses. Use of such addresses is typical for scams. Lotteries, banks and any but the smallest of companies do not normally use such addresses. Criminals use them to anonymously send and receive email at Internet cafes.

Attention:

I am Mrs. Rozella Wittmeyer, I am a US citizen, 56 years Old. I
reside here in Texas USA.My residential address is as follows,
1109 Lake Haven Drive Little Elm Texas 75068 United States,am
thinking of relocating since I am now rich. I am one of those
that took part in the compensation in United State of American
many years ago and they refused to pay me, I had paid over $56,
000 while in the US,trying to get my payment all to no avail.

So I decided to travel to Washington with all my compensation
documents, And I was directed by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation Director to contact Barrister Busna Omar, who is a
representative of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and a
member of the Compensation Award Committee, currently in USA and
I 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 most happiest woman on earth because
I have received my compensation funds of $15.5 Million US
Dollars,Moreover,Barrister Busna Omar showed me the full
information of those that are yet to receive their payments and I
saw your email as one of the beneficiaries on the list he showed
me, that is 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 Barrister Busna Omar.
Kindly send your personal details to him to prove your
identification.

Full Name:
Home Address:

Phone Number:

I'D Card:

You have to contact him directly on this information below.

Compensation Award House
Name: Barrister Busna Omar
Email: scrtkpngcompany@gmail.com

You really have to stop dealing with those people that are
contacting you and telling you that your fund is with them, it is
not in anyway 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 Barrister Busna Omar was just $655 USD for the
paper works, take note of that.

Once again stop contacting those people, I will advise you to
contact Barrister Busna Omar 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.

Mrs. Rozella Wittmeyer.

Little Elm Texas 75068 United States.
