"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!

Your Abandoned Package For Delivery

I have very vital information, but first I

must have your trust before I
review it to you because it may cause me my

job, so I need somebody that I can
trust for me to be able to review the secret

to you.

I am Mr. Kevin Bryner, Chief Inspection

Agent- United Nations Inspection Unit
at Charlotte Douglas International Airport,

working hand in hand with
Department of Homeland Security and U.S

Customs and Border Protection. During
our investigation, I discovered an abandoned

shipment from a Diplomat from
Africa and when scanned it revealed an

undisclosed sum of money in a metal
trunk box weighing approximately 25kg each.

The consignment was abandoned
because the Content was not properly declared

by the consignee as money rather
it was declared as film materials to avoid

diversion by the shipping agent and
also the Diplomat inability to pay for Non

Inspection Fees.

On my assumption, each of the boxes will

contain about $7Million to $8Million
each and the consignment is still left in the

storage house till today, but as
the year is coming to and end you most act

fast. The consignment are two metal
boxes with weight of about 25kg each

(Internal dimension: W61 x H156 x D73
(cm). Effective capacity: 110 LBS.).

Approximately, the details of the
consignment including your name and address,

the official document from United
Nation office are tagged on the Metal Trunk

boxes.

Provide your name, phone number and full home

address, to cross check if it
corresponds with the name and address on the

consignment including the name of
nearest airport around your city and other

details. You can send the required
details to me by email for onward delivery.

All communication must be held
extremely confidential. I can get everything

concluded within 48hours upon your
acceptance and proceed to your address for

delivery if you assure me of sharing
the content 30% for me / 70% with you on my

arrival to your house.

I want to transact this business with you and

share the money, since the
shipper has abandoned it and disappeared

because of the fear of being arrested
by the authorities. I will pay for the Non

inspection fee and arrange for the
boxes to be moved out of this airport to your

address by myself. But I will
share it 30%/70% with you. I assure you that

this is legal and 100% risk free.

Mr. Kevin Bryner
INSPECTION UNIT
