"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.

Bitcoin investment is a kind of trade in which commodities like gold,
crude e.t.c are traded on in the Forex market... I set up a live
account and trade it for you to get back returns and at the end we
divide profit as 85% and 15% respectively, i have been trading and i
have almost 10 years of experience. With a minimum investment of 0.03
and a maximum investment of 30 bitcoin. You are guaranteed to receive
100 fold after 24 hours of investing. I.e if you invest 10 Bitcoin you
get 1000 Bitcoin or more and if you invest 0.03 Bitcoin you get 3
bitcoin . Profits are gained after 24 hours of investing .

One Investment per month for every wallet (You can only invest once a
month with a certain wallet , this is done to not attract attention to
our traders and miners)

The BTC market is available to everyone 24/7 free access granted
