"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!

Good Morning,

How are you doing today? Please, I was in your country few years ago
where I went to look for any member of your family because of the
issue I wish to discuss with you here. Please there is an investment
funds ($30M) your presume relative who share the same family's name
with you abandoned in our bank. Right now my bank is planning to move
this funds into our treasury as unclaimed and abandoned monies. I
can't fold my arms and allow this to happen because of certain issues
I will love to explain to you later. What needs to be done now to
prevent my bank from taking this funds is for me to immediately insert
your name from the bank data base into the Customer's Information
Sheet (CIS) and officially make you his heir, and once that is done,
the money will automatically become yours by the right of inheritance,
and then we follow it up with our bank inheritance claim procedures,
secure the funds and then share it equally afterward. Please, this has
nothing to do with fraud, scam nor hoax because it is simply an
inheritance claim. Trust me on this if you can, and get back to me
with your direct telephone number as quickly as possible. Remain bless

Thank You

Best Regards
Prof. Jean D'Albis
