"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!

Subject: Latest evidence proves there IS a Kidney Disease Solution..-<20211007194743.D3A64B08567965FE@gmail.com>
Hey,
If your doctor or specialist has told you kidney function canât
be improved...
Donât believe them.
It simply isnât true.
Listen to what Stephen has to sayâ¦
â I had end-stage renal failure and was told by my specialist
nothing could be done except dialysis or a kidney transplant.
I stumbled across the Kidney Disease Solution by accident,
and boy am I glad I did. I rushed out and bought your secret
ingredients, which to my surprise were easy to find. Within
two days I began to feel heaps better.
I told my Nephrologist about your solution but he had never
heard of it. I told him to update his research! I canât believe
that in such a short time my whole life has turned around. â
Stephen Pepler, 81, Ottawa, Canada
