"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: Hello Dear,

Hello Dear,

How are you doing today? My name is Ms Jackie Agdeppa, I am a Pilipino and I work with a security and finance company here in Malaysia. Please, I want to first of all apologize for the manner in which am reaching out to you base on the fact that we haven’t met before.

I have a very disturbing situation that I needed a very urgent attention. On June 15th 2012, a man from your country contacted me on my facebook and requested to be my friend, which I accepted and we built a strong relationship and he visited me here on three occasions and in one of his visit, he told me that he will love to set up a big business here in Malaysia so that he will be close to me, I accepted the idea as i was in love with him and wanted to live with him for the rest of my life. On December 2012, he brought in $12.3Million through the help of my company and deposited it with my company for safe keeping, to enable him do Business Environmental (PEST) Analysis, as he called it. But during the Analysis, he got a call from home and decided to visit his country on 28th of December 2012 and that was the last time I met or heard from him until his death was announce on his facebook page.

It was the saddest moment of my life, as I was looking forward to live with him for the rest of my life, but that dream scrambled. Sir, why I am writing you this mail is because I need your help, I have been trying all possible means to lay claim on the fund my love left with my company, but was no avail, so now I needed someone from his country, who can stand as his brother to claim this fund with my assistant and then we share it.

Please, I am in desperate need of this money and I want you to work with me. I have a copy of the deposit and some information’s of him which will be vital for the claim.

Please get back to me and provide me your contact number for more detail.

I look forward to hear from you.

Thank you and remain bless.

Jackie Agdeppa.
