"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.
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
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.

Message Body:
Hello,

Do you know whatâ€™s the simplest trick to establish trust with your website audience?

Comply with GDPR regulation.

Look, if youâ€™re in EU, then compliance is mandatory, you canâ€™t escape it, but I donâ€™t want you
to not be compliant even if you arenâ€™t in EU.

I want you to think of compliance as a mandatory measure. Consider it like getting a secure
server certificate for your website. You do it cause it makes your business more trustable.

Yes, if you confirm to GDPR and it shows, people will trust you more.

And itâ€™s easy, really easy with this powerful new Wordpress plugin

https://jvz7.com/c/1080945/299907

You see, this plugin puts together the seven key features of GDPR in one place. You just set
it up and you get everything done for you.

- Cookie consent & management
- Terms & Conditions policy
- Privacy Policy
- Right to be forgotten requirement
- Data access requirement
- Data breach notification requirement
- Data rectification system

All of these requirements met in a matter of minutes! Can you find an easier approach than
this plugin?

If youâ€™re not a huge business with unique requirements and a specific policy towards GDPR,
then you may not even need anything more than this. This will work perfectly.

Not convinced?

Go check the demo video on the webpage above, youâ€™re going to be blown away I promise
you.

If compliance can be so easy, why would you be non compliant? Why would you turn away
more customers and more business?

No! Donâ€™t do that.

Go to this page and get your compliance quick-fix now.

Cheers!
Neha
