"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:
- "clearance fee" (this will cost you money - be careful with upfront payments to anyone you only know through email, especially if they promise you a lot of money. NEVER send money by Western Union or MoneyGram to people you do not know personally - NO EXCEPTIONS! Instant wire transfer services are not meant to be used with strangers because they offer no protection against fraud. That is precisely why the criminals want you send money that way. )
- "the consignment" (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)
- "consignment " (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)
- "diplomatic agent" ("diplomats" who perform deliveries of cash or other valuables to you only exist in 419 scams)
- "barrister" (Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.)
- "@lawyer.com" (Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
Barristers (lawyers) mentioned in 419 scams are always fake.
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.

I am Deaconess Jacqueline Looke , i am writing you to let you know i have crossed checked your details with the information stated on the official documents and have confirmed that you are the actual beneficiary to receive the abandoned consignment vault full of cash of USD950.000.00. Also i noticed this consignment was issued out to you due to the scam activities going on in the world and you were lucky to be among the compensated victim by the IMF in conjuction with the ECOWAS.

To ensure the full protection of you and me, I would respectfully request we maintain confidentiality as i have also involved a reputable barrister to assist us and he has agreed to take a share of just 10percent of the funds for a job well done .

Furthermore, for you to have full confidence of the existence of this consignment, I and Bar Richmond will go ahead and pay the consignment clearance fee of $3,800 USD which was the main reason the consignment was with-held here at Harrisburg International Airport, Pennsylvania USA since these charges were not paid by the diplomatic agent delivering this consignment to you.

I would respectfully request that you keep the contents of our communication confidential. I am making use of the opportunity since I will be retiring soon without anyone knowing about it, unless if you reveal it to a third party, which i would strongly advice you never to do so and remember, 'Loose Lips Sink Ships'.

I will email you my flight details as soon as I am able to conclude negotiations for the release of the consignment to you which could be completed hopefully in two days time as I will be making the payment of $3,800 USD for the clearance., But you have to assure me once again that my own share of the money will be given to me as I am taking a big risk doing this process on your behalf.

Do send me a copy of any government issued and also kindly email barrister Richmond Lekaveli Email:(barrichmondveli@lawyer.com) Barrister Richmond just need to sign your pacel delivery documents.
