"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!

For the last 10 months my friend Chris
has been working on something that he
has kept pretty quiet until now...


http://go2-url.com/aneaxs

Why has he been keeping this quiet?

NOT because he wanted to keep this to
himself.

NOT because he was afraid of competition.

NOT because he thought you wouldn't be
able to duplicate his success...

No, none of these reasons.

But mainly because he wanted to prove
that this was a long-term income stream
and something that he could map out for
you, in a simple and step-by-step system.

* How he makes up to 300% commissions,
selling other people's products

* How to trade traffic for profit

* How he made $191k from ClickBank in
just 2 years and then turned his back on
it!

* How he can get 7,000 - 8,000 new names
and e-mails into his back office systems
each and every day...

* How to set this up, so that ongoing
sales and commissions keep coming in....

And documenting all of this has taken him
much longer than he thought it would, but
the important thing is that everything is
now ready.

Ready for me and ready for you...

To see what I'm talking about, check
out the page below:

You'll see why Chris is walking away from
a $191k income stream - that I made over
a 2 year period.

And why this is one of the most powerful
systems and income streams that I have
ever seen...

And why anyone can do this too!
