419 Scam Example: "CITY TRUST E-MAIL LOTTERY INTERNATIONAL N.V / Mr Rick Van morgan"
"CITY TRUST E-MAIL LOTTERY INTERNATIONAL N.V / Mr Rick Van morgan" are labels used by a gang in Belgium for a fake lottery fraud (advance fee fraud, "419"). This scam is probably run by the same gang as the "FAMOUS CULTURE LOTTERY / Joe West / Rita Hamilton" scam. It is linked to the Spanish "EUROMILLONES SPANISH SWEEPSTAKES LOTTERY / ONXY SECURITIES AND FINANCE S.A" scam and the Dutch "CISCO WORLD NETWORK" scam.
