"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!

better place i will live and start my new life and also to take care

a bank in Accra Ghana West Africa (Unity Exchange Bank) and I was made
his next of kin. This is where I need you. I want to claim the money
from the bank, this is really my last hope to get my life better again
and perfect the future for my children. All the money deposited by my
father was total of $18.7 million, I promise to give you 20% if you

additional 10% on all charges made. I will use the remaining 70% to
