"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.
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
This email lists free webmail addresses. Use of such addresses is typical for scams. Lotteries, banks and any but the smallest of companies do not normally use such addresses. Criminals use them to anonymously send and receive email at Internet cafes.

Hello My Dear,

I know you would be surprised to read from someone relatively unknown to you before now? I took this decision the way my mind directed me. My name is Mrs Amanda Florence I am constrained to contact you because I deposited the sum of $1.7M USD into an automated teller card (ATM VISA CARD) in Cambodia.

The atm card was issued by the ANZ Royal Bank Of Cambodia and will allow you a maximum daily withdrawal of US$10,000.00 or it$B!G(Bs equivalent IN any ATM Machine all over the world.

Currently, I'm in one of the hospitals in India for treatment of throat cancer which the doctor confirmed might lead to my death. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money. I was brought up as an orphan and was married to my lovely Late husband for 50years without a child, I am 78 years now. Therefore I want you to use this fund to build Orphanage home or Charity Organization on my behalf to help the Motherless babies and less privileged ones.

I want you to use 35% of this fund to start up a good business in your country, while the remaining 65% be use to build Orphanage home or Charity Organization to bring hope to the hopeless, help to the motherless and the less privileged.
