"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!

Good day to you,

I am in receipt of your email regarding your UNCLAIMED consignment package that arrived Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshal Airport (BWI) via British airways flight #.BA592, for the past weeks now. An alert is set on it which stand as a reminder when you receive the consignment metal box which contains your awarded money from the United Nations Compensation Committee UNCC summed(5,316,000USD Five Million, Three Hundred and Sixteen thousand United states dollars) A report came from the airport authority that you have not yet come for your package or send your address for the inward delivery of your package that rightfully belongs to you.

We want to know why you have ignored your package, as this message is to keep you posted from the UNITED NATIONS COMPENSATION COMMITTEE on human rights activities as i was nominated to back all beneficiaries up to avoid anyone demanding for excessive payments by bad officials and offices asking for upfront fee which is prohibited by the law agreed by the UNITED NATIONS COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, which says let there be no means of any payment by this 100 beneficiaries that won the awarded fund.

Please, kindly reconfirm your address with the airport authority which they will forward to the Beneficiaries Clients Support Center on your behalf.

Note:That there are no upfront needed as all fees for storage at the airport will be paid by the Beneficiaries Clients Support Center. This exercise is for scam victims,lotteryscams,gambling,romance scam,atm scam, inheritance scam and contractors that are yet unpaid by some bad governmental official,NGO's,Courier services.

A crucial meeting was held in the states house with the UNITED NATIONS COMPENSATION COMMITTEE, since hundred people were listed on the compensation award center list of the UNCC and your email has won for you on the first batch.

Mind you that Anyone that ask you for upfront money is indeed a scam as the award payment center did not state that from the onset if there will be any means of payment, as you and i know that the global today is not safe and filled with fraud artist which is why a legal practitioner office is needed to surpass this vital message to the hundred fund beneficiaries.

I repeat again, there will be no means of payment all you need do is forward your address,age,occupation,phone number to enable the high court of justice here in England prepare your clearance document which would be scan and send to you while you send to the airport authority immediately for the release of you consignment as the united states airport authority are strictly on their cargo unit law, is that all necessary documents is needed for them to truly know that your consignment is from a genuine source and not that you are into any money laundering,terrorism or drugs.
