"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: Dear Friend

Dear Friend

Please forgive me if my request is not acceptable by your kind person.

I am Mohaiyani Binti, who works in CB (BURKINA FASO) as a non-independent
non-executive Director and President of CORIS BANK. During our last banking
audits, we discovered that an account abandoned belongs to one of our
deceased foreign clients, Mr. Wang Jian, co-founder and co-chair of the HNA
Group, a Chinese conglomerate with important real estate properties
throughout the US. in an accident during a business trip in France on
Tuesday.

I got your contact from a yahoo tourist search while I was searching for a
foreign partner. I am assured of your capability and reliability to
champion this business opportunity when I prayed about you.

I am writing to request your assistance to transfer the sum of
$15,000,000.00 (fifteen million United States dollars) at its counts as
Wang Jian's last foreign business partner, which I plan use the fund to
invest in public benefit as follows
1. Establish an orphanage home to help orphaned children.
2. Build a hospital to help the poor.
3. Build an asylum for the elderly and homeless.

Meanwhile, before contacting you, I did an investigation to locate one of
the relatives of the late Mr. Wang Jian who knows the account, but I didn't
succeed. However, I took this decision to support orphans and less
privileged children with this fund, because I don't want this fund
transferred to our Account of Government treasury as an unclaimed fund. I
am willing to offer you 50% of the fund for your support and assistance to
transfer the fund to your account.

More detailed information will be sent to the desegregation explaining how
the fund will be transferred to you Please continue to achieve the purpose,
Reply me on my private EMail Address: gl0027067@gmail.com
Waiting for your urgent response.
Attentively
Mohaiyani Binti
