"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.
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.

Achtung: Herr/Frau.

BETREFF: ZAHLUNG IHRES VERTRAGS/ERBES/AUSGLEICHSFONDS MIT SCHECK,
BANKEINzug, ATM-KARTE ODER ONLINE-ÃœBERWEISUNG

Sehr geehrter Herr / Frau.

Es ist uns bekannt, dass die meisten BegÃ¼nstigten von
Vertrags-/Erbschaftszahlungen wie Ihres von einigen Bankbeamten, der
ZollbehÃ¶rde und anderen RegierungsbehÃ¶rden zur Zahlung bestimmter
relevanter GebÃ¼hren aufgefordert werden, wodurch es fÃ¼r die
BegÃ¼nstigten sehr schwierig wird, solchen Verpflichtungen
nachzukommen, die steht im Widerspruch zu Abschnitt '37'
Unterabschnitt 'C' des Artikels XII des Gesetzes Ã¼ber Banken und
verwandte Finanzen von 1995 in der Fassung von 1998, daher hat das
IWF-Verwaltungsgericht beschlossen, alle ausstehenden Zahlungen
transparent und frei von korrumpierbaren Tendenzen zu leisten.

Wir bedauern alle Unannehmlichkeiten, die Ihnen beim Erhalt Ihres
Geldes entstanden sind. Senden Sie uns umgehend die folgenden
Informationen zu.

(1). Ihr vollstÃ¤ndiger Name......
(2). Dein Land.......
(3). Ihre korrekte Privatadresse.......
(4). Ihre direkten Telefonnummern.......
(5). Ihre aktuelle BeschÃ¤ftigung.......
(5. Ihr Alter/Geschlecht.......
(6). IHRE IDENTIFIKATIONSKARTE ID.....
(7).WhatsApp-Nummer ......

Danke fÃ¼r Ihre Kooperation

Hochachtungsvoll,
Frau Kristalina Georgieva
IWF-Direktor
