"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!

back to me


From Ogirishi Igbo N'Istanbul Turkiye, If you have any client that needs to
receive funds transfer in his bank accounts available balance.


The process is direct crediting to any bank account available balance.


Direct Crediting works and clears in Bank Accounts in OECD Ratified
Countries.

The exact amount you want will be credited to the client's Bank account
available balance.

Maximum amount i can credit is 999,999,999 .00 Million in any currency

What I need is clients Bank account details and I Will credit the Bank
account available balance.



The client will receive the transfer within 24 hours



It is called OECD Network Credit as the client cannot withdraw the money
credited.


The OECD Network Credit will be in the clients account for 3 (Three) Days.



After the three days the money credited will debit from clients account.



I am the one to give bill from Turkey here and the sharing is 60-40.

60% For me and 40% for the catcher.



The OECD Network Credit is done from any of the banks QNB Finansbank A.,IS
Bankasi and Denizbank A.S all here in Turkey


I flash and clear deposit in €EURO,CHF , $USD ,£GBP,it depends on the
account submitted with us by the client.


Note:The Key is that the client will receive the money in his/her account.

OECD Network Credit is the Fastest,most efficient and reliable
international payment system

It will be in available balance, not ledger or pending.

OECD Network Credit clears in ledger or as pending in accounts of clients
from non OECD ratified countries


If you have any questions and need more clarification get back to me.
