"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)
- ",500,000" (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)
- "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)

Federal Reserve System New York, United States of America
Address: 33 Liberty St, New York, NY 10045, USA

US COURT OF FEDERAL CLAIMS UPDATE.
This is to inform you that the management of the Federal Reserve Bank
has p.rocessed your payment on Thursday 27th of August 2021.
Your Funds will not be transferred because you have failed to pay the
mandated charge for your fund's approval in US COURT OF FEDERAL CLAIMS
according to Judge Margaret Mary Sweeney (Chief Judge of the United
States Court of Federal Claims) report on Friday evening 4th September
2020.
The Judge told us that you refused to pay the mandated fee of $300 and
she went further to say that you have followed some Africans who
promised you a successful transfer after you would have paid certain
fees.

You have paid to Africans instead of the rightful authority (US. Court
of Federal Claims in Washington DC United States of America).
You must note that there is no way the Federal Reserve Bank can
transfer your funds without the court's approvals. Mrs. Janet Louise
Yellen (The Former Fed Chairperson) discovered that the documents
backing up the $10,500,000.00 million dollars on your names need to be
renewed/updated before the payment will be completed in October 2021
but due to your unable to follow Mrs. Yellen's instruction your
outstanding payment remained pending.
Please, you have to get back to me let us finalize the transfer
because this fund was supposed to have been paid to you by this
immediate past Federal Reserve Chairperson Mrs. Janet L. Yellen, in
October 2021.

NOTE: If you are not paying the required $300.00 which is for your ATM
card activation let me know in a very
brief message.(IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEM ABOUT THE SAID FEES KINDLY
INFORM US FOR MORE INFO)

Thanks
Mr. Jerome H. Powell,
16th Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank, Federal Reserve Bank NY USA.
