"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.

Good Day,

I want to indulge your humble person to read through this letter written
by me. I know this email might come as a surprise to you considering the
amount of junk emails we all receive on a daily basis. I can assure you
that this email is authentic and real. I would appreciate if the content
of this letter is kept strictly confidential and respect the integrity of
the information.

I am Aisha Al-Gaddafi , the Daughter of late Col. Muammar Gaddafi former
Libya Leader who died on October 20, 2011. I have the believe and
understanding that my late father?s death was masterminded by
international community base on the role my late Father has shown to the
western world over his leadership in our country Libya . They have taken
all that I suffered and saved for since his death including some of my
treasure, houses and bank accounts closed by the new Government.
Hence, I am contacting you to assist me in removing the sum of Eighty
million United States dollars($80.000.000.00) been deposited with a
deposit company in Dubai, United Arab Emirate.

The funds was deposited with a deposit company in my name and as a matter
of fact me, my only son and the entire family of my father in-law were
trapped in a bunker here in Tripoli I manage to sneak out with my son with
the help of a security guard on duty that faithful day. I manage to
crossed the border and I am presently into hiding in Oman without any
other means of communication unless my laptop hoping to arrange for my
traveling out possible to Europe to safe guard my life because I know that
the regime of my father has collapse after his death .Please for your kind
assistance I will offer you 30% of the total sum, all the legal
documentation concerning the deposit are with me, I will only write power
of attorney making you the new beneficiary of the deposit so that the
security company can release the consignment to you.

Bear in mind that the funds was deposited with the security and deposit
firm as household effect, therefore they do not know the real content, so
you are going to collect the consignment as house effect from the security
company where as only you and me know the real content.

Once you successfully collect the consignment from the security company
you will send me with some money so that I can arrange for my traveling
where we can meet ourselves for disbursement.

May God/Allah grant you the heart to assist me and my only son in this our
trial period, please never you abandon me with my son just because we are
Arabs, but I want to assure you that I am of a clean heart that was
brought up under western education but married to a cruel family.

Get back with your details on my private email
ayeshagaddafi120020@gmail.com so that we can proceed without delay because
l am here without help from no one.

Best regards,

Aisha Al-Gaddafi
