"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:

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:
- "your urgent reply" (scammers rush victims so they don't have time to think properly)
- "remain blessed" (scammers in West Africa like to use religious phrases)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.

Hello,

I Mrs Joy Darlington, married with Late Wilson Darlington from Republic
of Ireland, I have took a personal decision to donate what I inherited from
my late husband to the Charity organization, less privilege.

My late husband was The chairman / CEO of k: E global industries and a
philanthropist based in GERMANY. I have decided to donate a fund through
Credit Account of ($5.3) Five Million,three Hundred Thousand Dollar to you
for this assignment, Charity, less privilege, building of schools,
hospitals and also for the assistance of the poor widows, Motherless
babies, Charity organization, MUSLIM or CHRISTIAN,so you have to make sure
that you use this donation fund as I have directed.

Your urgent response is required in this matter due to my present
critical condition of my health, it was a Sister nurse working in this
hospital that helped me to type this message, because I am loosing strength
every minutes of the day. All I need from you is prayers that God will
accept my soul in-case I didn't survive this surgery. Also pray for the
soul of my late Husband to rest in peace.

Please always be prayerful all through your life, we are visitors on this
earth and we must be very careful in whatever we do so that our soul will
not be a waste. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian.

Whoever that wants to serve the mighty God must serve him in spirit and
Truth. I wish you all the best and may God bless you abundantly. I AM
WAITING FOR YOUR URGENT REPLY.

Remain blessed in God. Yours
Mrs Joy Darlington.
