"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:
- ",500,000" (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)

Subject: CONTACT ABRAMS ESQ

I am Ms. Jillian Mullenix from Fort Worth Texas, USA. I'm thinking of relocating since I received my compensation payment through legal assistance of Abrams (Esq) I was among those that participated in the Compensation award payment in many years ago and they failed to pay me, I have paid over US$78,000 while I was in the US, trying to get my payment all to no avail.

So I decided to travel down to Abrams (Esq) with all my compensation documents, And I was directed to meet Abrams (Esq), who is the member of COMPENSATION AWARD COMMITTEE, and I contacted him and he explained everything to me. He said whoever was contacting us for compensation without the knowledge of his office is fake and scam.

He took me to the paying bank for the claim of my Compensation payment. Right now I am one of the happiest women on earth because I have received my Compensation funds of $2,500,000.00. Moreover, Abrams (Esq), reviewed to me the full information of those that are yet to receive their payments and I saw your email address as one of the beneficiaries, 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 Abrams (Esq). The money I paid to Abrams (Esq) was not up-to $300.
You have to contact him directly on this information below.

Name : Abrams Fensterman

Your Full Name:...............
Direct Phone:....................
Country.................
Occupation:.....................

Once again stop contacting those people, I will advise you to contact Abrams (Esq) so that he can help you to compensate you instead of dealing with those liars that will be turning you around asking for different kind of money to complete your Payment.

Thank You and Be Blessed.
