"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!

Dear fund beneficiary,

Sir,

My legal firm was among the team of auditors hired by the World Bank Group,
to take proper auditing of the Nigerian Central Bank, the CBN as
recommended by the International Monetary Fund, IMF, the auditing was
properly done.

But strangely, the team of auditors discovered a huge sum of money
$10.9MUSD in your name, reference file number: *FGN/FMF/CBN/YTRC/
0987/2022* and not yet claimed, and it was observed the said fund has been
abandoned for many years.

Please, get in touch with the Debts Management Office, DMO as the only
agency saddled to manage all Nigerian local and foreign debts and make
recommendations to the paying Banks, be warned to stop any further
communication with any agency, or Bank, until you contact DMO for file
activation.

Your many years of efforts, suffering, sadness and your nonpayment is a
man-made error and greed, so get in touch with the DMO and request for
process of file reactivation and payment approval.

Let me warn you, stop listening to false information about your payment,
contact DMO compliance and urgently reactivate your payment file, which is
blacklisted.
