"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!

Subject: YOU ARE ADVISED TO STOP CONTACTING THEM!!

Am Michael Franklin , I am a Germany's citizen, Male 72 years Old. I
reside here in Grund 71, 78549 Spaichingen, Deutschland, Germany. My
residential address is as follows. Grund 71, 78549 Spaichingen,
Deutschland, Germany, am thinking of relocating since I'm now rich.
I'm one of those that took part in United Nations Compensation
Commission (U.N) many years ago and they refused to pay me, I had paid
over 75,000.00 Euro while in the United States, West Africa and United
Nation trying to get my payment all to no avail, You can also view the
following website: http://www.uncc.ch/

I decided to travel to the UNITED NATION (U.N) Head Office at UNITED
NATIONS COMPENSATION COMMISSION (UNCC) Secretariat Villa la Pelouse
Palais des Nations 8-12 Avenue de la Paix 1211 Geneva 10 Switzerland,
you can also view they website: http://www.uncc.ch/, And the United
Nation.(U.N) directed me to One Office Mr. Peter Kaiser in United
Nation who is in charged for the Agent compensation awarded fund, but
he lives' in West Africa who is among the member of the COMPENSATION
AWARDED COMMITTEE OFFICER, I contacted him and also he explained
everything to me. He said whoever is contacting through Africa are
fake because the Inheritance/Compensation Law clearly states that the
beneficiary/recipient is exempt from receiving said fund from Africa,
Mr. Peter Kaiser took me to the paying bank officer for the claim of
my Compensation payment. Right now I'm the happiest man on earth
because I have received my compensation funds of $1.5million USD, (One
million five hundred thousand dollars).

Moreover, Mr. Peter Kaiser showed me the full information of those
that are yet to receive their payments and I saw your email address as
one of the beneficiaries that is why I decided to email you to stop
dealing with those people, they are not with your funds, they are only
making money out of you. I will advise you to contact Mr. Peter Kaiser
you have to contact him directly on this information below.

COMPENSATION AWARD COMMITTEE OFFICER
Name: Mr. Peter Kaiser
Email: ( www_officeinfo2021@yahoo.com )

You really have to stop dealing with those people that are contacting
you and telling you that your fund is with them, it is not in anyway
with them, they are only taking advantage of you and they will dry you
up until you have nothing. The only money I paid after I met Mr. Peter
Kaiser was just 385 Euro for the processing of all documentations that
back up your funds and also understand that they will not be any
charges again from any one or individual and you will receive your
fund in any means you want your fund to get to you with in 24hrs of
processing your documents, take note of that.

(NOTE: TELLING YOU TO PAY FOR ANY FEES OR CHARGES IS ALL NOTHING BUT
LIES, I REPEAT THE ONLY MONEY YOU WILL HAVE TO PAY AND WHICH I ALSO
PAID IS 385 EURO FOR THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DOCUMENTS IMPOSED BY THE
GOVERNMENT.)

Once again stop contacting those people, I will advise you to contact
Mr. Peter Kaiser, so that him can help you to process your funds
instead of dealing with those liars that will be turning you around
asking for different kind of money to complete your transaction and
you can also get back to me so that I will always guard and direct you
through my e-mail address:( michael.franklin.49@list.ru )
