"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!

Dear Sir, Are you having one or two difficulties from other financial instr=
ument lender? As regards to secure the acquisition of BG/SBLC for project f=
inancing. I am direct to a private investor specifically for cash loan. As =
a professional in this industry with over 20years experience, I will advise=
that you seek for a cash loan instead of a BG/SBLC. Note that in the marke=
t today it is IMPOSSIBLE to get a genuine BG/SBLC from any of the AAA rated=
banks. All you have flying around are 100% fakes. Also, when you get a gen=
uine BG/SBLC (which is almost impossible), it will be very difficult for yo=
u to monetize it at the same face value issued thereby running short of fun=
ds. I hope you know that not all platforms or countries accept BG/SBLC, the=
reby making it worthless. The lease fee for a genuine BG is 35% while for p=
urchase is 52%. Compare this cost to the interest rate of 3% in acquisition=
of a cash loan; you would agree with me that getting a cash loan is far be=
tter. Moreover, our loan (Company) will give you the loan without upfront p=
ayment at an interest rate of 3%. if interested do not hesitate to contact =
me to direct you to the loan company. Regards, Ricky Earl Tonnesen
