"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:

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. 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:
- "inheritance funds" (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- "million united states 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)
- "hundred thousand united states 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)
- ",000,000" (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)
- ",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)
- "00,000.00" (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)
- "californialoanunion@accountant.com" (This email address looks like addresses used in fake loan scams. Be suspicious of any lender who uses a free webmail address or who is based in different country from yourself.)

Dear Beneficiary

We write in regards to your delayed Contract/Inheritance Funds in the sum of Ten Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US
$10,500,000.00) which you are yet to receive as a result of your inability to raise the required fee(s) to conclude your Transaction. The
FBI has decided to proffer a solution that will make it easier for all the Beneficiaries to receive their Funds.

We understood that some Fees are required in order process and Transfer your Funds into your Account. We are also aware that most
Beneficiaries do not have these required fees. We have therefore deliberated with all the Bank's in charge of this payment BANK OF AMERICA,
SUN TRUST BANK , BARCLAYS BANK, FIRST BANK, WELFARGO BANK, ECO BANK , ACCESS BANK, UBA BANK, SKY BANK, CITI BANK, CHASE BANK, CENTRAL BANK

AND WORLD BANK. to allow Beneficiaries the privilege of receiving their Funds in two (2) or three (3) installments. In this case,

Beneficiaries will no longer be required to pay the fee at once but part of it depending on the number of installments such Beneficiary

will like his/her Funds to be released to him/her.

Write to California Credit Union Bank and request that you want your fund to be transferred to your account by installments payment, so

that once the first payments enters into your account you can then use money from there to facilitate the transfer of the remaining

balance, once the first installments enters into your account that you will equally give you another opportunity to do a telex-transfer and

withdrawal from your account to our Online transfer procedure.

The CREDIT UNION LOAN BANK which is now in charge of your Payment has agreed to give the Beneficiaries the option of receiving their Funds

at once, in two or three installments. This will help the beneficiaries to pay part of the fee and receive part of their Funds with which

such beneficiary can upset the remaining fee and receive his/her complete Funds. To break this down:

Two Hundred Dollars ($200) fee will facilitate the release of Two Million United States Dollars (US$2,000,000) only.

Six Hundred Dollars ($600) fee will facilitate the release of Six Million United States Dollars (US$6,000,000) only.

One Thousand, Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500) fee which is the total fee will facilitate the release of your Full Contract/inheritance Funds

in the sum of Ten Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$10,500,000.00).

However, should you cannot afford any of the above Mentioned installment so as for us to talk to the Bank to know how much out of your

Funds they could release to you.

This is the best the FBI can do for you and you are advised to take advantage of this opportunity. Kindly, contact NOVALEEN FENOL, at the

California Bank, to indicate your preferred option. I will advise you to reach him via his private email at: noveleenfenol@gmail.com
