"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!

ATTN: BENEFICIARY

I am DR KINGSLEY OBIORA the new appointed Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). I was appointed because Mr. Sanusi Lamido Aminu the former Governor of Central Bank could not deliver all inheritance payment funds to the Foreigners. I know that you might be surprise on this mail, but I am telling you the truth. I know that it is against my official duty to release confidential issue like this to an outsider. There is nothing I can do to help you beside this; I am taking this bold step because of my belief as a Christian.

Due to Covid-19 crises worldwide. We have received payment credit instruction from the new President of Federal Government of Nigeria (Muhammadu Buhari) to credit your account with your full inheritance funds from the Nigerian reserve account with our bank.

This is to notify you that your funds $25,000,000.00. (Twenty Five Million USD) has been programmed for immediate release into your nominated account but we cannot transfer this funds directly to your nominated bank account, because we are having a little problem with International Monetary Fund (IMF) so our method of payment is by Diplomatic Courier Service and get it delivered to you right at your door step.

YOUR DIPLOMAT HAS NOW ARRIVED AT San Diego International Airport, CONTACT HIM NOW.(949)799-0694 OR send him a text message with your full name.

I want you to know that you have 72 hours to call the airport (949)799-0694 then ask to speak to diplomatic in person of GENERAL JAMES HARRY in the United States, let us know if you are still interested to get your consignment delivery to you today? As they have been waiting to hear from you to help them complete this delivery to you. Once again, the contact information of the diplomat is given below in full details.

The Name of Diplomat is:- LT. GENERAL JAMES HARRY
Email: jamesbwenz@gmail.com
Tel: (949)799-0694
Consignments Label No: 00445 And 00484
Consignments Serial No: 5678001 And 5679334.

Meanwhile, I have done and paid up every necessary charges locally here, including the processing and cargo cost even the Airway-Bill Shipment and also the Air ticket of the Diplomatic agents that will be bringing the two consignments have been paid here to enable the Diplomats leave with the consignments. Be informed that the cost of clearing the boxes there is $850.00 because it's an official packaging and not commercial.

Please contact or send message to Diplomat, LT. GENERAL JAMES HARRY.(949)799-0694 for payment instructions. ($850.00)only.

Please take note of this, the key codes to open the two boxes are (CBN890N for one and the other one is CBN676N), keep this to yourself and you will use it to open the boxes to calculate the money and make sure the money is complete before the Diplomat will leave your home, hotel or bank ok. Once again, bear in mind that the diplomatic did not know the content of these boxes, what I told them that inside the consignment boxes are jewelleries that belongs to you, so don’t allow them to know the content of the boxes.

With much anticipation to engage with you soon, I send

Dr Kingsley Obiora
Executive Governor
Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
NB: Try to keep this to yourself now that you are almost at the verge of receiving these funds from the Diplomatic agent to avoid anything that will Jeopardize all your efforts at the end of the day.
