"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!

Caro billnevitt,

Sou Mustafa Ayvaz, advogado pessoal do falecido Sr. Robert, que
perdeu a vida devido Ã doenÃ§a de coronavÃrus que contraiu durante
sua viagem de negÃ³cios na China, alguns anos atrÃ¡s. Devido Ã lei
aqui, entrei em contato com vocÃª para trabalhar comigo para
garantir a transferÃªncia do fundo: Quatro milhÃµes, quatrocentos e
vinte mil dÃ³lares americanos, legado deixado por ele.

Procurei minuciosamente o parente mais prÃ³ximo de meu cliente
falecido e falhei porque nÃ£o tenho sua residÃªncia atual e
detalhes de contato. Mas enquanto procurava, encontrei seu perfil
com o mesmo sobrenome e na mesma localidade com o parente mais
prÃ³ximo. Decidi entrar em contato com vocÃª e usÃ¡-lo como parente
genuÃno.

Solicito seu consentimento para apresentÃ¡-lo como parente mais
prÃ³ximo de meu falecido cliente, jÃ¡ que ambos tÃªm o mesmo
sobrenome. Os fundos serÃ£o entÃ£o transferidos para vocÃª como
beneficiÃ¡rio e compartilhados de acordo com uma proporÃ§Ã£o de
compartilhamento proposta de 60:40, ou seja, 60% para mim e 40%
para vocÃª. Por favor, entre em contato comigo imediatamente para
obter mais informaÃ§Ãµes.

Cumprimentos
MustafÃ¡ Ayvaz.
