"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:

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:
- "dear friend" (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- ",500,000" (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)
- "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)
- "barrister" (Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.)
- "bello-daniels@live.co.uk" (this email address has been used in a known scam)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.

Dear Friend,

I am Mrs Alice Hall. I am a US citizen and I am 48 years Old. I reside here in 1051 Site Dr.Brea, CA 92821 USA. And I am thinking of relocating since I am now rich at the moment.

I am one of those that took part in the United Nations Compensation program in Benin Republic many years ago and they refused to pay me. I had paid over $20,000 while in the US, trying to get my payment but all was to no avail.

So I decided to travel down to the UK with all my compensation documents, and I was directed to meet Barrister Bello Daniels, who is the member of COMPENSATION AWARD AUTHORITY and a Human Rights Activist (Lawyer), and I contacted him and he explained everything to me on how my fund will be released to me successfully without any delay.

He said whoever is contacting us through emails are fake and he also 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 $2,500,000.00 moreover, Barrister Bello Daniels showed me the full information of those that are yet to receive their payments and i saw your email as one of the beneficiaries who have not yet received the payment under CASE FILE 54AC003 and that is why I decided to email you to stop dealing with those people.

They are not with your fund; they are and will only be making money off you.
Therefore, I would advise you to contact Barrister Bello Daniels for assistance and inform him that your CASE FILE is 54AC003.

Contact him as directly via the information below.
Name: Barrister Bello Daniels
Email: bello-daniels@live.co.uk
Direct Cell Number: + 44-704-577-0795

You really have to stop dealing with those people that are contacting you and telling you that your fund is with them, it is not in anyway 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 Barrister Donald Smith was just $520 for the paper works, take note of that.

Please don’t disclose to the office that I contacted you in aspect of this
matter.

All you have to do is to quote your case file number CASE FILE 54AC003 as the subject while sending barrister Bello Daniels email and also try to send your Name/Address/Mobile Phone Number so he can treat your matter as urgent cause he is always a busy man as been observed while I spent some time with him in getting my fund.

Thank You and Be Blessed.
