"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:
- "from the desk of" (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- "please endeavor to " (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- "robert-uphold2022@outlook.com" (this email address has been used in a known scam)
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.

FROM THE DESK OF MR. ROBERT UPHOLD
UNITED NATION AUTHORIZE OFFICE.
ALPHA CAPITAL BANK : alphacapitalbank39@yahoo.com
DONATION FUNDS PERMIT DEPARTMENT OFFICE.

ATTENTION :FUND OWNERSHIP.

My Name is Mr.Robert Uphold, a U.S.A. citizen and I worked with the
World bank In Geneva,Switzerland. I was posted back here in the United
States of America, due to the outcome of the meeting held with the
World bank in-conjunction with the United States of America union
earlier this year about scammed victims from the western world by
mostly the United States of America. A conjunction was reached by both
parties and the resolution to pay a compensation fee of $5.5 million
each to 5 scam victims. You happen to be among these chosen scam
victims, please do not communicate or duplicate this message to any
one because we cannot afford to pay more than 5 scam victims for now.

The payments are to be paid through Alpha Capital Bank. I was actually
posted here to see that all the selected scam victims get this
compensation funds without any inconvenience and I have been given
just a month to complete this assignment before we go for another set
of scam victims.

However, due to the inefficient and corrupt banking system here we
have resolved to use an online banking system option for you to
transfer your funds by yourself to your designated/chosen bank account
without any inconvenience. Therefore, if you feel you want an ATM
MasterCard method let me know as we will devise a way of monitoring
and supervising the delivery directly to your doorstep. Please note
that upon your contact with Mr.Robert Uphold, you are to provide him
with your Full Name so he can verify you with information sent to him
already. Please endeavor to keep me fully informed on all developments
with the bank so that I can also monitor the transaction process
through feedback from you.

RE-CONFIRM YOUR BELOW DETAILS.

Your Full Name__________________________
Your Residential Address________________
Your country___________________________
Your city___________________________
Your Sex/ Age___________________________
Occupation______________________________
Your Whats-app number______________________________
Telephone/Fax___________________________
Next of Kin_____________________________

Your full cooperation is highly anticipated.

Best Regards,
Mr.Robert Uphold
