"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!

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.

Subject: PLEASE STOP DEALING WITH THOSE PEOPLE/OFFICE....

Dearest one,

PLEASE STOP DEALING WITH THOSE PEOPLE/OFFICE....

My name is Mrs. Elizabeth Cahil. I am a US citizen, I am one of those
that were scammed by Nigerian scam artist four years ago and i
received a compensation notification from the Federal compensation
house earlier last month for the sum of USD One Million five Hundred
thousand but i felt it was all the same group of scammers because i
have paid over USD thirty Six Thousand, trying to get my payment all
to no avail.

So I decided to travel down to Nigeria with all my compensation
documents, And I was directed to meet Rev Dr. Lawrence Hill, who is
the member of COMPENSATION AWARD COMMITTEE, and I contacted him and he
explained everything to me. He said whoever is contacting us through
emails are fake.

He took me to the paying bank for the claim of my Compensation
payment.Right now I am the most happiest woman on earth because I have
received my compensation funds of USD One Million five Hundred
thousand Moreover, Rev Dr. Lawrence Hill, showed me the full
information of those that are yet to receive their payments and I saw
you as one of the beneficiaries, and your email address that is why I
decided to email you to stop dealing with those people, they are not
with your fund,they are only making money out of you. I will advise
you to contact Rev Dr. Lawrence Hill. You have to contact him directly
on this information below.

FEDERAL COMPENSATION HOUSE
Name : Rev Dr. Lawrence Hill
Email: revdrlawrence.hill1978@gmail.com
Tele: +234 7033898291

Note: When contacting him, try to make sure that you reconfirm him
with your full names, your current age, your home address, your
occupation and also your telephone numbers to avoid any mistake.

You really have to stop dealing with those people that are contacting
you and telling you that your fund is with them, it is not in anyway
with them, they are only taking advantage of you and they will dry
you up until you have nothing.

The only money I paid after I met Rev Dr. Lawrence Hill was just
$620.00 for the paper works, take note of that.

Once again stop contacting those people, I will advise you to go
ahead and contact Rev Dr. Lawrence Hill so that he can help you to
Deliver your fund instead of you dealing with those liars that will be
turning you around asking for different kind of money to complete your
transaction.

Note: Without the office of Rev Dr. Lawrence Hill you will never
receive your payment, contact him he will let you know the situation
of things those who scammed you because he told me those who scammed
me but no where to get them. He knows about the people you are dealing
with right now, but he will give you more information's upon your
contact with him. Just go ahead and contact him and i promise you that
you will never regret this day, i will never mislead you because if i do,
i will get the reward somehow someday from God, if you hurry up you will
have your compensation payment before Xmas.

Thank You and Be Blessed.
Mrs. Elizabeth Cahill
