"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:
- "% commission" (Beware of any scheme that involves depositing checks or money orders or receiving wire transfers in your bank account and then wiring a portion of the funds somewhere, for a percentage of 5-15% of the total. Such offers are *always* fraudulent and you will be liable for the entire amount when the checks, money orders or wire transfers turn out to be fraudulent. Any money already forwarded comes out of *your* pocket then. )
This email message is a 419 scam. Please see our 419 FAQ for more details on such scams.
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.

If you are open to listening, I can explain a bit of it. Bitcoin is a digital currency( it simply means money that is online) Bitcoin has proved to be one of the best investments in the past 10 years. Although many people have doubted Bitcoin, it has continued to rise year after year.

You can then send Bitcoin from your digital wallet to other people’s digital wallets, just like a bank transfer. This is called a Bitcoin transaction. All transactions are stored on the Bitcoin blockchain, which is a type of technology that keeps your Bitcoins safe from hackers.
The purpose of Bitcoin is to remove the need for a single company (banks, PayPal, etc.) having control over your money. Instead, with Bitcoin, you have full control. All Bitcoin transactions are confirmed on a trustless shared network that isn’t owned by anyone.

Bitcoin was first bought in 2010 at a price of around $0.06. Yes, that’s right! $0.06 — cheaper than a chocolate bar. So, if you had $20 to invest in Bitcoin in 2010, you could have bought 333 Bitcoins. Those 333 Bitcoins would now be worth over $3.7 Million! I bet you wish you knew how to invest in Bitcoin then, right?

There are simple step you can take to get started.First you have to sign up a personal broker account so you can monitor your trade and profit the next step is to deposit the investment money so that your trade can get started the more you invest the more the profit

This is the investment amount and profit in 7 - 14working days of trade.
Invest - profit
$300 - $2500
$500 - $5000
$1000 - $10500
$5000 / $10000 are premium with 10% bonus

Not true

I understand it your first time okay believe me not everyone is ready to take risk
This is 100% guaranteed and legit.My goal is to satisfy my client
Yes this is 100% guaranteed cause you are in control of your account you can make withdrawals after every trading circle.I only have 20% access to your account cause I’m your account manager.
I’m not doing this for free okay , in every profit you make I’m entitled to 20% commissions. That’s a slap on my face..The company does not grant access to withdrawals clients money. You can start with the minimum which is $300 that will earn you $2500. Looking forward to your urgent response.
