"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 us 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)
- "confidentiality of this transaction" (scammers urge victims to keep the transaction secret because they don't want anyone to point out to them that it is a scam)
- "utmost confidentiality" (scammers urge victims to keep the transaction secret because they don't want anyone to point out to them that it is a scam)
- "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)
- "can i completely trust you?" (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- "is 100% risk free" (almost true for the criminal trying to scam you - arrests of online criminals are rare)
- "cotonou" (a location commonly mentioned in 419 scams)
This email message is a next of kin scam.

based on trust and confidentiality top secret

I know that this letter reaches you as a surprise, for the simple fact
that we do not know. Be reassured because they are good intentions.
I am contacting you based on trust and confidentiality hope you will
keep this as a top secret without you frighten or surprise you.

Even I am Mr Jack Michael Director of International Operations of BANK.
During my research at the bank, I found a huge amount of nine million
five hundred thousand US dollars ($ US9.500.000.00) which was
deposited in an account since 2003.
From extensive research, the results showed that the bottom has been
filed
by Ezzedine Salim famous Lebanese businessman who died in a
plane crash in 2003 court in Cotonou, Benin to Lebanon.

And since then his account remained without any claim anyone is
for
this purpose that I humbly seek your help and cooperation to introduce
you to BIAO Bank (International Bank for Africa Western Ivory Coast)
as an associate business fire deceased customer Mr. SALIM EZZEDINE
accordance with statute and rules of procedure.

Be sure that all procedures will be monitored here by me until you
receive these funds in your bank account.
Now let me ask a few questions.
. Can I completely trust you?
. Can you guarantee the confidentiality of this transaction?

The bank must not know of my participation in this transaction with
you, I must be your monitor, provide all the information the deceased
in case the bank would ask some question about the deceased.
We will share this fortune as follows: 45% for you and 5% for all
expenditures during this transfer and 50% for me.
Rest assured that such transfer is 100% risk free, because I have made
all the arrangements for its
smooth running and know that we will

I plan within 11 working days to get the bank to make the transfer of
this fund into your bank account.
In addition, this transaction should be treated with the utmost
confidentiality for the simple reason that I am still in service.

you more details about its progress.
