"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:

An email address listed inside this email has been used in a known fraud before.
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:
- "affidavit of claim" (this will cost you money - be careful with upfront payments to anyone you only know through email, especially if they promise you a lot of money. NEVER send money by Western Union or MoneyGram to people you do not know personally - NO EXCEPTIONS! Instant wire transfer services are not meant to be used with strangers because they offer no protection against fraud. That is precisely why the criminals want you send money that way. )
- ",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)
- "affidavit " (Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.)
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.

Subject: Dear Valued Customer Fund Release Order

I write to inform you that this Honorable Bank received a telex
instruction from (WORLD BANK DEBT COMMITTEE), to release your long awaited
FUND which was ON HOLD and the Management of this bank are acting on their
capacity as payment releasing Bank to credit your bank account with
$10,500,000.00. Here is the approved code for your FUND. 1. Payment
release advice A/C #: WH5783219, 2. INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND release
code: #: CV009436HG. 3.UNITED NATION Anti-Terrorist Clearance Reference
Code: #: x7311/64669, with confirmation of these relevant codes, we have
been authorized to affect your payment from their Reserved account with
this bank transferring the same to your bank Account in United States
Dollars equivalent.

In the course of our General Auditing and Account revision of the last
quarter of the financial fiscal year 2022, we discovered that the Bank
Accounts belonging to some Benefactors have been changed and their
addresses also have been changed for receiving their approved fund.

After the investigations however, it was revealed that there are foreigners
who are collaborating with Staffs of our commercial banks to make these
changes illegally without the knowledge of the Bonafide Benefactors and one
traced to your own change is this Mr. Qu Risheng who said you died of
Covid-19 and he has also submitted Affidavit of claim, letter of
administration, Deed of ownership and bank account which is not in your
name to claim your fund. The only required approval which he was not able
to obtain (INTERNATIONAL DECLARATION OF FUND) because the email we have in
the payment file is different from the email he presented, so we decided to
contact you through the email in the payment file to know if you really
(DEAD OR ALIVE). before we transfer the to Mr Qu Risheng, as soon as he
obtains (INTERNATIONAL DECLARATION OF FUND) of the transfer of the fund.

But we wanted to confirm if this is actually true and hence decided to
write to your email address. If you are not dead or authorize Mr.
Mr. Qu Risheng to receive your fund on your behalf by trying to divert your
money through the documents he presented.

In this manner, you are required to reconfirm your personal details below
to ensure immediate payment within 3 bank working days in line
with international best practice.

Do reconfirm your details to us.
