"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!

Kære elskede,

Jeg er Fabio Antonio, en portugisisk statsborger, jeg gennemser og så din e-mail, så jeg besluttede at skrive dig, hvis din e-mail er ægte, jeg har fået diagnosen spiserørskræft. Den har besmittet alle former for medicinsk behandling, og lige nu har jeg kun et par måneder til at leve. Jeg er meget rig, men var aldrig generøs; Jeg har givet de fleste af mine aktiver til mine nærmeste familiemedlemmer.

Jeg har besluttet at give almisse til velgørenhedsorganisationer. Jeg kan ikke gøre dette selv mere på grund af mit helbred. Jeg bad engang medlemmer af min familie om at give nogle penge til velgørenhedsorganisationer, de nægtede og holdt pengene. Jeg har et stort kontant depositum på 18 millioner dollars hos et sikkerhedsfirma i Amerika. Jeg vil have dig til at hjælpe mig med at indsamle denne indbetaling og sende den til velgørenhedsorganisationer. Du tager 20% af disse midler til din hjælp.

Jeg vil gerne have dig til at anerkende modtagelsen af ??denne e-mail så hurtigt som muligt og behandler med absolut fortrolighed og oprigtighed.

Fabio Antonio
