"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!

Now contact my secretary in South Africa his name is Paul Edward

Phone +27 733414171, Contact him and ask him to send you the total of $920.000.00.{Nine Hundred And Twenty Thousand United States Dollars} which I kept for your past efforts and attempts to assist me in this matter. I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. So feel free and get in touched with my Secretary Paul Edward and instruct him where to send the amount to you.
