"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:

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:
- "dear sir/madam" (a standard Nigerian greeting phrase)
- "dormant account" (Banks mentioned in 419 scams are always fake (real banks don't communicate using mobile phones or free webmail addresses))
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.

Subject: THE SPA TRANSFER PAYMENT

Dear Sir/Madame;
I am writing on concerning unclaimed Holocaust victims dormant assets, according to records over 458,400 Holocaust victims in more than 75 nations with over $12.5 billion unclaimed funds and gold assets

I am Meo Domenick the Chief Financial Database Officer of Swiss Banks Holocaust Victim Assets , in charge of unclaimed Holocaust Dormant Funds and Assets. I have information of unclaimed $65.7 million which as an officer I cannot be directly connected to this money, so this led to my contacting you for us to work in order for you to assist in receiving this money into your bank account for us to share, while you will have 35% $22,995,000 of the total fund after the transfer.â€‹

Due to account inactivity for over 50 years after the last contact with the customer, some of the dormant accounts still remain untraceable because the customers are dead in the war etc without any update information relating to the changes on the account.

If you accept this offer to work with me, I will appreciate it very much. As soon as I receive your kind response, I will give you details on how we can achieve it successfully. Your contact telephone /fax number will be highly needed for further communication.

Best Regards,

Snr.Meo Domenick
