"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:

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:
- "demurrage " (this will cost you money - be careful with upfront payments to anyone you only know through email, especially if they promise you a lot of money. NEVER send money by Western Union or MoneyGram to people you do not know personally - NO EXCEPTIONS! Instant wire transfer services are not meant to be used with strangers because they offer no protection against fraud. That is precisely why the criminals want you send money that way. )
- "security keeping fee" (this will cost you money - be careful with upfront payments to anyone you only know through email, especially if they promise you a lot of money. NEVER send money by Western Union or MoneyGram to people you do not know personally - NO EXCEPTIONS! Instant wire transfer services are not meant to be used with strangers because they offer no protection against fraud. That is precisely why the criminals want you send money that way. )
- ",500,000" (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)
- "00,000.00" (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)

your fund transfer through our BANK Network, we have credited your
total fund of $2,500,000.00
Legitimate USD into an international Draft, and we have paid the
delivery fee of your ATM VISA card to you, we paid it because your ATM
VISA card worth of
$2,500,000.00 which we have registered for deliver, has less than 16
days to expire in the custody of the EMS Company and when it expires,
the money will go into federal government treasury account.

CARD will not expire, because we trust that when you receive this your
ATM CARD, definitely you must pay us back and even compensate us for
helping you. Like we stated earlier, the delivery charges has been
paid ,therefore the only money you were advice to send to them is
their official security keeping fees of $25usd every day.

Like I stated earlier, the crediting re-activation, delivery and the
company registration charges has been paid by me, but I did not pay
their official security keeping fees since they refused, they refused
and the reason is that they do not know when you are going to contact
them and the demurrage might have increased by then, They told me that
their official security keeping fees is $25.00 per a day , and I
deposited it yesterday being 7th of March, 2022.
