"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:
- "million united state dollars" (they want you to be blinded by the prospect of quick money, but the only money that ever changes hands in 419 scams is from you to the criminals)
- "united state of america" (this email uses bad English)
- "united state dollar" (this email uses bad English)
- "dear beneficiary," (this SPAM email was probably sent to thousands of people)
- "courier company" (Courier companies mentioned in 419 scams are always fake. They will have you send money to them, but won't deliver anything. )
- "remain blessed" (scammers in West Africa like to use religious phrases)
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.

Attention dear beneficiary,

Iâ€™m Mr:Julius Newman the new appointed Manager of worldwideexpress
Office Pennsylvania, United state. On going through the files of the
previous records of this office, I discovered that there are 9parcels
containing ATM cards each one attached with an email address of the
owner on it. The former appointee of this office (Dr.John Swasey)
failed to carry out the delivery as it was instructed and programmed.
Probably, one of his reasons for not carrying out the delivery was
because of your Non- Compliance Of Official Processes and Unbelief Of
The Reality Of Your Genuine Master Card.

According to the content recorded in each file, the ATM card was
deposited by Mr: Hafez Ghanem the World Bank Director of Africa. On
the statement he wrote on the list, He stated that each of the
aforementioned ATM cards contains the sum of (USD$15.5MILLION UNITED
STATE DOLLARS ) and was supposed to transfer to you through his bank
but due to your unable to finish the process he uploaded the money to
their ATM card and registered with worldwideexpress office here in
Pennsylvania Head office,

Meanwhile, I've made the arrangement of posting the 9 parcels through
our worldwideexpress fast delivery to the 9 of you to your respective
mailing address Am also sending the same message of the same content
to ( 9) of you that own the abandoned ATM CARDS each at the same time.
If you found in spam folder, it could be due to your Internet Service
Provider, ISP. So move to your inbox before your reply.

I went to our head office and reported the issue of the discovered 9
ATM cards in my office and they verified it and gave me the veto order
to carry out the delivery immediately you reconfirm your mailing
address to this office in order for us to mail the ATM CARD directly
to you. Note,below information is officially needed for the sending of
the card.

Your full name
Full mailing address
Nearest airport
Phone line
Occupation
Country

I will send your ATM Card once you update us with the above info and
you shall be given a tracking number, that is, the Track and Trace
number of your parcel once it is posted to your mailing address, so as
to enable you track your parcel to know exactly when it will arrive to
your mailing address.

Remain blessed as I'II be looking forward to receiving your immediate
response to my Email:
Regards

Mr. Julius Newman
