"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!

Rebuilding Our Immigration System
Frontline Accounts: Welcoming the Stranger and Prioritizing Public
Health

Wednesday, March 3 | 12:00-1:15pm

Since President Biden took office in January, he has taken steps to
reverse the unwelcoming immigration policies of the previous
administration. Every day, Jewish Family Service of San Diego and our
partners at the San Diego Rapid Response Network, HIAS, and ACLU of
San Diego and Imperial Counties, are working together on the
frontlines to support and advocate for immigrants, refugees, and
asylum seekers in our community. United, we are focused on ensuring
our region Welcomes the Stranger with dignity and respect while
prioritizing public health during the pandemic. From sheltering asylum
seekers to legal and travel assistance, our combined immigration teams
are providing vital help for the most vulnerable families and
individuals fleeing violence and persecution in their own countries.

Join us for an in-depth discussion on what the current changes mean
for immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers today, and our role as a
community in preserving their right to seek asylum.

Speakers:
Norma Chávez-Peterson, Executive Director, ACLU of San Diego &
Imperial Counties
Kate Clark, Senior Director of Immigration Services, JFS
Mark Hetfield, President & CEO, HIAS

Moderator: Michael Hopkins, CEO, JFS

Today is an important day.

With public health as our focus, right now we are welcoming asylum

legal right to asylum-fairly, humanely, and without fear.
Together with our partners at the San Diego Rapid Response Network
(SDRRN), JFS is providing shelter, medical support, transportation,
and legal services.

Your support for the SDRRN Migrant Shelter Services makes this
possible. Donate Today >>
