419 scam - You don't need an "affidavit of claim" to transfer money

An affidavit of claim is not required to transfer money out of the UK. An affidavit of claim is required only when you bring a civil lawsuit against someone who damaged your property or who owes you money and won't pay. It is not required for standard banking transactions.

It is no coincidence that most of the Google hits that comes up when you search for the exact phrase "Affidavit of claim" are related to 419 scams from Nigeria. It is one of the standard instruments of scammers to extract payments from scam victims, along with courier fees, ""Anti-Terrorism certificates"", ""Drug-Free certificates"", "anti-money laundering certificates" and other bogus charges. All these demands invariably have to be paid upfront via Western Union, which is essentially anonymous and untraceable and should never be used with strangers you only know via email.

If you copy and paste all the emails that you have received into the form at www.scamomatic.com you will find it will confirm it to be a fake lottery scam, and it may even tell you that some email addresses in those mails have been reported by other scam victims before.

The following emails are part of an Advance Fee Scam. See our "419" fraud FAQ for more information on such scams.

If you have any suspect email that you want to report or have checked, you can copy and paste the message text into our "Scam-O-Matic" webform for an instant reply.

If you get suspect emails, you can also forward them to our scam-reporting e-mail address
Though you won't normally get a reply we do use your reports to shut down scammers and to warn others.
