"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:
- "here in london united kingdom" (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- "million 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)
- "abuja" (a location commonly mentioned in 419 scams)
- "lagos" (a location commonly mentioned in 419 scams)
- "senatorsaraki2016@instructor.net" (this email address has been used in a known scam)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
This email lists mobile phone numbers. Use of such numbers is typical for scams because they allow criminals to conceal their true location. They can receive calls in an Internet cafe from where they send you emails, while pretending to be in some office.

Hello fellow Member,

I'm Mrs. Helen Reece, I am a UK citizen, 53 years Old. I reside here in London United Kingdom.My residential address is as follows, 43 Stephen Road, Bexleyheath DA7 6EF United Kingdom,am thinking of relocating since I am now rich. I am one of those that took part in the compensation in USA many years ago and they refused to pay me, I had paid over $80,000 while in the UK,trying to get my payment all to no avail.

So I decided to travel to lagos with all my compensation documents, and I was directed by the Federal senate of Investigation Deligates to contact Mr. Bukola Sariki,who is a Special senate President of the federal republic of Nigeria and a certified member of the Global Compensation Award Committee,currently sitting in the Abuja,however I contacted him and he explained everything to me. He said whoever that is contacting us through emails are fake.

He then took me to the accredited 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 fund of $10.5 million us dollars.Moreover Mr. Sariki showed me the full information of those that are yet to receive their payments and I saw your email as one of the beneficiaries on the list he showed me, 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 the senate president in the person of Mr.Saraki Bukola.I would like you to re-confirm the following information to him;Your full name, address and phone number.This is to ensure that he is dealing with the right person due to the high level of mistaken identities over the internet. Please do not hesitate in responding to this email to enable him proceed promptly with the release of your compensation funds to you at the earliest.

You have to contact him directly with the information below.

Office of senate Counsel on Global Compensation.
Name : Mr. Bukola Saraki
Chief senate Officer (CsO)
Email: senatorsaraki2016@instructor.net
Cell Phone: +234 (808) 572-5137

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 Senator Bukola Saraki was just $455 USD for Special Accessment Fee including all relevant paper works,please take note of that! as that would be the only to send him before he would start your paument procurement.

Once again stop contacting those people,I will advise you to contact senator Saraki so that he can help you to deliver your fund instead of dealing with those liars that will be turning you around asking for different kind of money to complete your transaction.

Thank you and be Blessed.

Mrs. Helen Reece
