"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:
- "god-fearing " (scammers in West Africa like to use religious phrases)
- "remain blessed" (scammers in West Africa like to use religious phrases)
This email message is a "dying widow" scam.

Investment proposal by Jennifer

I am sorry to come to you

With all due respect and humanity, I was forced to write in a
humanitarian field.

I am a widow Jennifer David, aging long-term sick (cancer). i am
currently admitted to a private hospital. I have some funds I
inherited from my husband, David Rainer , who later died in a car
accident.

When my husband was alive he deposited the sum of â‚¬ 2.700.000.00 (2
million 700 thousand Euro) in a bank. Currently, this money is still
in the bank.

My doctor told me that i would not last for the next 3 months due to
cancer problem. I need someone very honest and God-fearing and
organization that can use these funds for the work of God My late
husband taught that this fund should be used for charitable purposes,
such as building schools, houses of orphanages, hospitals, etc.

I took this decision because I do not have any child that will inherit
this money and I want God to be merciful to me and accept my soul.
With God all things are possible. Please, if you would be able to use
these funds for God's work, kindly reply.

I want you to send me the following information referred to below.

1) Your full name:----------------------------------------------
2) Nationality:--------------------------------------------------
3) Age:---------------------------------------------------------
4) Occupation:-------------------------------------------
5) Telephone number:-----------------------------
6) Your photograph:--------------------------------

As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the
Bank. I also will issue a letter of authority that will show the
current beneficiary of these funds.

Hoping to receive your answer. Remain blessed in the Lord.

Thanks

Jennifer David
