"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!

Subject: From Mrs. Rizalina Maglasang, I will be waiting your kind response...

Dearest Friend,

I am very pleased to write to you after going through your contact information, which I also prayed over it before contacing you. I am Mrs. Rizalina Maglasang the wife of Late Porferio Maglasang Sr, the chairperson of the Kabankalan Chapter of the National Federation of Free Farmers (Pambansang Katipunan ng Malayang Magbubukid - PKKM) who was killed by unidentified armed men in 2006.

My contacting you is to assist in receiving a total sum of 4.8 million dollars which I inherited from my late husband, the pressure from my decease husbands family for this money compelled me to leave my country Philippines and have the money which is concealed in a metallic trunk box is deposited with a security and safe society institute under a secret arrangement as a family treasure.

This means that the safe society institute does not know the content of this box that was shipped from my country to abroad under a special delivery coverage. My purpose of asking for your assistance boil down to the fact that I donâ€™t want my late husbands family to be aware or name involve and the deposit statement of the box authorized the institute to make this box available for shipment on request only to my foreign representative, though unnamed.

Hence I want you to contact the security institute as my business partner or associate, after receiving the necessary prove from me to enable the institute release the consignment to you diplomatically, while I join you on the arrival of the box.

I have already paid all storage charges and the shipment fee to safe society institute, all you need do is to help me contact the security institute after receiving from me all the necessary information of the deposit and introduce yourself as my representative associate, requesting the urgent delivery of the box to your address.

And as soon as safe society security shipping agent approved the shipment and tell you the arrival date of the box then I will join you to give you 25% of the money instantly before going on with the proposed investment in your domain provided is secured and investment friendly.

Please if you are interested and willing to represent me as my business partner kindly write me as soon as possible through this my private email:Â rizalinamaglasang@yahoo.com.ph

I await your urgent response..

Best wishes,
Mrs. Rizalina Maglasang
