"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:
- "million dollars" (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)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.

With all due respect I got your details from an online directory and
having been motivated by your personal status, I decided to approach
you I am Mrs. Nancy Paul; I have decided to donate what I have to you
/ Motherless babies/Less privileged/Widows' because I am dying and
diagnosed of cancer for about 5 years now. I have been touched by God
Almighty to donate from what I have inherited from my late husband to
you for good work of God Almighty. I have asked Almighty God to
forgive me and believe he has, because he is a Merciful God I will be
going in for an operation soon.

I decided to donate the sum of ($ 8.1 million DOLLARS) to you for the
good work of God Almighty, and also to help the motherless and less
privileged and also for assistance of the widows.

I wish you all the best and May the good Lord bless you abundantly,
and please use the funds judiciously and always extend the good work
to others. As soon as you get back to me, I shall give you info on
what I need from you, then you will contact the bank and tell them I
have willed those properties to you by quoting my personal file
routing and account information. And I have also notified the bank
that I am willing to loan those properties to you for good, effective
and prudent work. I know, I don't know you but I have been directed to
do this by God Almighty.

I Have all my Hospital documents which I can send to you to prove to
what I am telling you and my seriousness about this.

If you are interested in carrying out this task, get back to me for
more details on this noble project of mine.

Yours Faithfully,
