"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:
- "confidential business" (scammers urge victims to keep the transaction secret because they don't want anyone to point out to them that it is a scam)
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.

Subject: I will expect to hear from you ASAP..

Hello dear,
My name is Suha Sariakcali, citizen of Turkey and a legal practitioner certified and practicing here in Turkey.
I would like to discuss a confidential business partnership with you. Can I trust you with the details of this deal?
Can you work with me as first hand partner to claim the money deposited in the time fixed deposit account? The amount in question is $11,350.000.00, this money was deposited by my late client Mr. Abdulmohseen, a Saudi Arabian senior political elite who came to Turkey for investment in real estate and medical before his sudden illness and death. His death was regarded as political assassination by opposition.
I will expect to hear from you ASAP..

Regards,

Suha S. Sariakcali
