"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 beloved," (a common phrase found in 419 scams)
- "your urgent reply" (scammers rush victims so they don't have time to think properly)
This email message is a "dying widow" 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: Dear Beloved

Dear Beloved,

I am Mrs Monica Robert from Netherlands, i am married to Dr.Williams Robert
who worked with CHEVRON Nigeria Limited, for Nineteen years before he died
in the year 2017. We were married for Twenty Six years without a child,
he died during one of the riots in Nigeria. He was held hostage and slain
to death by protesting youths of the region.

Since his death i decided not to re-marry.When my late husband was
alive he deposited the sum of ($22 MILLION) with HSBC BANK In London,
and now the management of the Bank have just wrote me to come forward to
receive the money or rather Issue a Letter of Authorisation to somebody
to receive it on my behalf if i can not come over because of my condition
at hand.

I am presently with my laptop in a hospital where i have been
undergoing treatment for Cancer of the Blood, i have since lost my
ability to talk and my doctors have told me that i have only a few
weeks to live. It is my last wish to see that this money is invested
and at the end of every year distributed among charity organisations.
And for your compensation, as soon as the money enters your account
take 30% of the total money, while 70% will be for the work of God.

I took this decision because i know that there are alot of poor people
suffering from different kinds of disease and nobody to come to their aid.
With God all things are possible. As soon as i receive your reply i shall
give you the contact of the bank were the money is deposited.

Kindly reply email at: ( monicarobert362@gmail.com )

I will also issue you a letter of authority and Certificate of claim that
will prove you as the new beneficiary of this fund. Get back to me i await
your urgent reply.

yours Sincerely ,

Mrs. Monica Robert
