419 Scam – "Fondazion Di Vittorio"
"Fondazione Di Vittorio" (website: http://www.fondazionedivittorio.it/) is a foundation in Italy whose name is abused for a scam by a Nigerian gang. The scam works the same way as a fake lottery scam, i.e. you are made to pay money to a fake lawyer, bank, courier company, etc. The real foundation is not connected to the scammers in any way. Economic Community Of West African States (ECOWAS), a regional organisation of West African countries, which is also mentioned in most of the "Vittorio" scam formats, has no connection to this scam either.
Here are some of the alternate names and sellings used in the scam:
- The Fondazione di Vittorio
- Fondazion di Vittorio Italy
- Foundation di Vittorio
- Fondazionedivittorio
You are usually directed to contact the "Executive Secretary" of the foundation, whose name varies in the scam emails.
A similar scam is run using other foundations
(Alberto Giovanni Foundation / csdesk@albertofoundation.org,
"Fondation de France" and
Stichting INGKA Foundation),
the Catholic Church in Italy,
the Catholic Church in France
and (which make me want to throw up) the names of Amnesty International (rose_woods50@yahoo.it) and
Oxfam GB.

Amnesty Online Promo
This is one of the most revolting scams I've come across. These scammers in Nigeria
abuse the name of amnesty international for a fake lottery scam and even abuse
a domain owned by amnesty Italy as a fake sender address. It's the same scam
that abuses the Fondazione di Vittorio name.

The Église Catholique en France has discovered a huge number of double claims due to beneficiaries informing close friends relatives, attorneys and third parties about their donations. As a result of this, this close friends relatives, attorneys and third parties try to claim the prize on behalf of the real recipients. The Église Catholique en France has lost millions of dollars to this fraudulent people, and have reached a decision from headquarters that any double claim discovered by the Église Catholique en France, will result to the cancellation of that particular donation, making a loss for both the double claimer and the real beneficiary, as it is taken that the real recipient was the informer to the double claimer about the donation. So you are hereby advised once more to keep your informations strictly confidential until your claim has been fully recovered.
