"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:

An email address listed inside this email has been used in a known fraud before.
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:
- "the consignment" (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)
- "trunk box" (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)
- "consignment " (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)
- "await your urgent response" (scammers rush victims so they don't have time to think properly)
- "top secret" (scammers urge victims to keep the transaction secret because they don't want anyone to point out to them that it is a scam)
- "diplomatic courier" ("diplomats" who perform deliveries of cash or other valuables to you only exist in 419 scams)
- "courier service" (Courier companies mentioned in 419 scams are always fake. They will have you send money to them, but won't deliver anything. )
This email message is a orphan scam.
This email lists free webmail addresses. Use of such addresses is typical for scams. Lotteries, banks and any but the smallest of companies do not normally use such addresses. Criminals use them to anonymously send and receive email at Internet cafes.

Dear Beloved Friend,

Dear Beloved Friend,

Compliment of the day to you. I hope you are fine and that this mail will meet you in good health and happiness. I know that this mail may come as a surprise to you because we have not been acquainted before now but i decided to contact you base on trust and faith when i deemed it necessary to look for a foreigner to help me on this process. I am the daughter to late Mr.William J Maddox, a pilot from United states who died in January 5th, 2001. For re-affirmation about his death visit the site below:

http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=38871892

I want to confide in you to explain what bothers and hopes that you will help me achieve my only wish before the appointed time that i shall die as i am mailing from my hospital room/bed with tears on my face. I have thought about it and because of the trend of scam in the world today i have to be careful and mindful of who i shall entrust this proposed charity donation into his hands so that the objective of the donation will be achieved.

Well despite my situation what bothers me most is my late Father fund(U.S.$10 MILLION) that will be a waste if nothing is done urgently. This fund was deposited in a Security & Finance Company in London by my late Father before his untimely death. It was concealed in a metallic trunk box as family valuables and deposited with the security company instead of a bank because of security reasons base on the fact that he was a well known figure in Politics and government.

All I want is your re-affirmation that you are capable to help me transfer the consignment as what you will have to do after i have sent all the necessary documents to you is just for you to contact the security company as my late father business partner and find out what it will take the security company to process and transfer the consignment to you through their diplomatic courier service.

I took this decision because i am the only child of my late father and because of how my late father relatives have treated me with so much dis-regard and hatred even with my health condition and have also ceased all my late father properties. This fund in the security company is all that they could not get hold of because it was not deposited in U.S.

I am willing to do anything to assist in the liftment of this consignment to you only if you assure me of ensuring that a charity home and home for HIV/AIDS will be built with part of the fund in my late father status and name. please i want an answer to all questions as listed below so that i can be more assured that you are really genuine and ready to help me before sending you the documents of the deposit and the security company's contact details that you shall use to apply for the consignment release and liftment:-

1.if you are ready to keep the transaction as top secret because i do not want my late father relatives to know about this consignment in London because of how they took possession of all my late father accounts and properties in Philippines.

2. Your capability and credibility in handling this transaction in every ramification.

3. Your credibility and reliability as to avoid betrayal from you or seating on the entire fund when the trunk box is finally received by you.

4. That all my instructions as the initiator of the transaction would be taken for the betterment of the transaction. Also send your proof of identity and your address so that i can have confident in you before we proceed.

I will highlight you more on what to do as soon as you send your details and the proof of your identity so that i will have all the confident to entrust the transaction into your care without any fear. I am soliciting for your speedy response to my so that we can proceed with the consignment release and liftment proceedings without further delay.

I await your urgent response in this regard.

Regards,
Miss. Lally Williams.
