"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:
- "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)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
This email lists mobile phone numbers. Use of such numbers is typical for scams because they allow criminals to conceal their true location. They can receive calls in an Internet cafe from where they send you emails, while pretending to be in some office.
- +2348120766841
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.

Attn: My Dear,

Barbara Moyer is my name, 62 years Old. I reside in Columbus. My residential address is as follows 100 Frankfort Sq, Columbus OH 43206, United States, am thinking of relocating since i am now rich. I was one of those that took part in the Compensation in Nigeria many years ago and they refused to pay me. I had paid over Twenty Thousand Dollar while in the US trying to get my fund but all to no avail.

So I decided to travel down to Nigeria with all my compensation documents, and I was directed to meet Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman, who is a member of COMPENSATION AWARD COMMITTEE which i did contacted him and he explained everything to me. He said whoever is contacting us through emails are fake.

He took me to the paying bank for the claim of my Compensation payment. Right now I am the happiest woman on earth because I have received my compensation funds of $1,200,000.00. Moreover, Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman showed me the full information of those that are yet to receive their payments were i was able to see your name and your email address as one of the beneficiariesn on the list , that's why I decided to email you to stop dealing with those people, they are not with your fund, they are only making money out of you. I will advise you to contact Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman.

Kindly forward to him your following details.

Full Names:
Address:
zip Code:
Country:
Telephone Number:
Age:
Marital Status:
Occupation:

You have to contact him directly on this information below.

COMPENSATION AWARD HOUSE
Name : Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman
Email: daleddman@anpa.de, daledelgeman@gmail.com
Phone: + 234 81 207 66 841

You really have to stop dealing with those people that are contacting you and telling you that your fund is with them, anyway it is not with them, they are only taking advantage of you and they will dry you up until you have nothing.

The only money I paid after I met Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman was just Three Hundred and Forty Five Dollar for the paper works, take note of that.

Once again stop contacting those people, I will advise you to contact Rev. Dr. Dale Delgeman so that he can help you to deliver your fund instead of dealing with those liars that will be turning you around asking for different kind of money to complete your transaction.

Thank You and Be Blessed.
Barbara Moyer.
