"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 SHOULD GET BACK TO ME NOW

I know that you are still confused and you don't know which way to
follow and the reason why i continue contacting you so that you will
not keep on making the mistake because if you continue with dealing
with them, i think you will make a mistake that you will regret for
the rest of your life time but my prayer is that God will open your
eyes to see the truth and I also know that they are really
brainwashing you, just think about it, ever since you have being
sending them money, how much have you received from them???, i am not
begging you, it is your life, it is your money, you can spend it where
ever you want to spend it but mark my word and if you really want tom
receive the $3.5millions USD, kindly follow my instruction and receive
your funds in less than 48 hours, though I will be transferring the
funds bit by bit to you to avoid any further delay, at least 50,000.00
Euros Weekly until you received the total funds complete. I can
forward my identity to you if you like.

UBA Relationship officer
