"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:
- "dear friend" (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
This email message is a "New Partner from Paraguay" scam.
This email lists free webmail addresses. Use of such addresses is typical for scams. Lotteries, banks and any but the smallest of companies do not normally use such addresses. Criminals use them to anonymously send and receive email at Internet cafes.

Subject: ACCEPT THIS TOKEN FROM ME AS YOUR COMPENSATION

Dear Friend,

I'm happy to inform you about my success in getting the fund
transferred to a Swiss Account with the cooperation of a new partner
from London who is an international business man.
Presently I'm in India for investment projects with my own share of
the total sum.
Meanwhile, I did not forget your past efforts and attempts to assist
me in transferring those funds despite that it failed us some how.

Now contact my secretary, his contact is:Name:

Mr.Alexander Riman
Email: alexriman011@gmail.com
Tel: +2349060818260

Ask him to send you the total $950.000.00 (Nine Hundred and Fifty
Thousand US Dollars) which I kept for your compensation for all the
past efforts and attempts to assist me in this matter.

I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. So feel free and
get in touch with my secretary Mr. Alexander Riman and instruct him
where to send the amount to you.

Please do let me know immediately you receive it so that we can share
the joy together after all we suffered at that time. In the moment, I
am very busy here because of the investment projects which me and the
new partner are having at hand, you can reach me on this number

Finally, remember that I had forwarded instruction to my secretary on
your behalf to receive that money, so feel free to get in touch with
Mr.Alexander Riman and he will send the amount to you without any
delay.
