"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:
- "hundred thousand united states dollars" (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)
- ",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)
- "power of attorney" (with your bank details and a power of attorney form criminals sometimes empty bank accounts)
- "certified bank draft" (Beware of any scheme that involves cashing checks or money orders and then wiring a portion of the funds somewhere - you'll be liable for the entire amount if the checks or money orders turn out to be fake, even after you have received and forwarded cash. If it's a lottery prize, remember that real lotteries do not pay large prizes by check. They wire the money directly to your bank account and you do not pay for that. Many scammers promise a large check only in order to then demand payment of courier fees for a fake courier service. )

Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.

Attention,

After several attempts to reach you I deemed it necessary and urgent to notify you finally about your outstanding settlement of your overdue fund. I resumed duty recently as Foreign & Commonwealth Policy Chairman on Public Debts Reconciliation (SUB SECTION IFM POLICY), a committee set up by the WORLD BANK, to reconcile and pay Foreign Contractor/Inheritance and Award debts PART PAYMENT of $4,500,000.00 (FOUR MILLION AND FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND UNITED STATES DOLLARS ONLY). It has been scheduled to be paid to you through International Certified Bank Draft, cashable in the bank of your choice. I am committed to upholding and defending the constitution and laws of WORLD BANK as well as achieving a higher level of public safety and security through the prosecution of criminals.

The purpose of the committee among others is to investigate, verify and settle all outstanding debts owed and records before me. I have revealed that your payment has not been effected as a result of official negligence as many irregularities had happened in the Bank where some top officials of the Apex Bank collaborate with impostors who are carrying fake portfolios misled and misguided YOU about the position of your fund and having the opportunity to extort money from you. The security of your data and transactions is crucial to us, we therefore apply one of the best security standards available (128 bit SSL), this (SSL) applies to the business relationship and supplements any agreements made by individual contract.

You are therefore required to contact the Chairman, UK's Foreign & Commonwealth Policy Committee on the below information in the United Kingdom (Payment center) as soon as possible:

CONTACT PERSON: William Hague
Foreign Secretary
Tel: +447031888580
E-mail:ukfpc01@blumail.org

Meanwhile, Did you authorise anybody to claim your fund on your behalf? we need your urgent response because your file had problem due to a petition filed by one Mr.Edgar Carlos from Peru claiming to be your Attorney and that you have handed him the ownership of your fund .

He sent us the acoount below claiming that it where your money will be paid into:
BANCO DE CREDITO DEL PERU.
N° de cuenta 245-13592091-1-42 ,
C?digo SWFT N° BCPLPEPL .

We became suspicious when he was asked to present a power of Attorney duly signed by you and he could not present it,that is why we decided to contact you as to know if you are privy to this to avoid fraudulent fund diversion. Do confirm to us immediately if you authorised this new arrangement so we will not be held liable at the end.Based on the information we received, it is mandatory and compulsory that you reconfirm your contact information to him for further advice and also for the programming of the information in the micro chip compartment of this committee if actually you are not aware of the change of account. Contact us through our E-mail: ukfpc02@blumail.org

Yours sincerely,

Rosemary Nulu
Perminent Secretary,
UK Foreign Policy Committee
