"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:

The following phrases in this message should put you on alert:
- "necessary legal documents" (this will cost you money - be careful with upfront payments to anyone you only know through email, especially if they promise you a lot of money. NEVER send money by Western Union or MoneyGram to people you do not know personally - NO EXCEPTIONS! Instant wire transfer services are not meant to be used with strangers because they offer no protection against fraud. That is precisely why the criminals want you send money that way. )
- "00,000.00" (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)
- "abidjan" (a location commonly mentioned in 419 scams)
- "god fearing " (scammers in West Africa like to use religious phrases)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.

Hello Dear

I deep it a respect and humble submission, I beg to state the
following few lines for your kind consideration, I hope you will spare
some of your valuable minutes to read the following appeal with
sympathetic mind. I must confess that it is with great hopes, joy and
enthusiasm that I write you this email which I know and believe by
faith that it must surely find you in good condition of health.

I'm Miss Roselyn Martines the daughter of Late Mr. Martines Kwamme,
Before the death of my father, he called me and informed me that he
has the sum of Three Million, Six Hundred thousand
Euro.(â‚¬3,600,000.00) he deposited in a private Bank here in Abidjan
Cote D'Ivoire.

He told me that he deposited the money in my name, and also gave me
all the necessary legal documents regarding to this deposit with the
Bank, I am undergraduate and really don't know what to do. Now I want
an honest and GOD fearing partner overseas who I can transfer this
money with his assistance and after the transaction I will come and
reside permanently in your country till such a time that it will be
convenient for me to return back home if I so desire. This is because
I have suffered a lot of set backs as a result of incessant political
crisis here in Ivory coast.

Please, consider this and get back to me as soon as possible.
Immediately I confirm your willingness, I will send to you my Picture
and also inform you more details involved in this matter.

Kind Regards,
Roselyn Martines
