"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:
- "million united state dollars" (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)
- ",000,000" (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)
- "00,000.00" (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)
- "top secret" (scammers urge victims to keep the transaction secret because they don't want anyone to point out to them that it is a scam)
- "united state dollar" (this email uses bad English)
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.

Subject: RE;HAVE YOU RECEIVED YOUR FUNDS YET /?

Hello Dear Recipient.

I decided to write you this proposal in good faith, believing that you will not betray me.

I am Mr. Suvo Sarkar,Senior Executive Vice President, Head of Retail Banking and Wealth Management of Emirate NBD.

I have been in search of someone with the name, so i came online to search then i saw you here, i think it is by the will of God to come across you now, i am having some important business discussion i wish to share with you, it is in connection with your last name and you are going to benefit from it.

One Late Peter , a citizen of your country and a crude Oil dealer made a fixed deposit with my bank 2005 for 108 calendar month valued at US$70,000,000.00 (Seventy Million United State Dollars) the due date for the deposit contract was last 22nd of January 2018, sadly Peter was among the death victims in the may 27 2006 Earthquake disaster in Java Indonesia that killed over 5,000 people. he was in Indonesia on a Gold business trip which he introduced to me, sadly that was how he met his end. My bank management is yet to know about his death, i knew about it because he was my friend and i am his account officer. Peter did not mention any Next of Kin/ Heir when the account was opened, so few months ago i was going through his account details and noticed that his account needs to be renew or to terminate the contract, so i thought of it again and again and i decided to get a next of Kin so that the fund can be out of Emirate NBD, now i am seeking for your co-operation so we can get the fund to our self instead
I am not a greedy person, so I am suggesting we share the funds equal, 50/50% to both parties, my share will assist me to start my own company which has been my dream. Let me know your mind on this and please do treat this information as TOP SECRET.

We shall go over the details once I receive your urgent response strictly through my
personal E-mail address,

Name;.......................
