"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!

Hi,

My name is Debbie Levin of Ukraine, I am married to late Max Levin who passed away as a result of the ongoing crisis (WAR) in Ukraine, He disappeared on March 13 and was found killed because of two shots from Russian occupiers.
Before his death we have a joint asset which the estimated value is $6.5 million (USD) dollars in a security vault located in Dublin Ireland.

I'm Taking refuge in a polish hospital due to my health issues, we never had any child, I am 39 years old and my doctor told me i'm limited to travel due to my kidney and liver failure disease and I have few more months ahead. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. Before the death of my late husband we agreed to donate the funds to a God fearing person who will assure me that he/she will use this fund to help the Motherless babies homes, Orphanages and Charity organizations, less privileged, Propagating the word of God and assist in the fight against Russian rebels in Ukraine.

We took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money and I want to keep to my promise which we booth made together that we will donate the fund to an unknown as God directed. As soon as I receive your reply I shall proceed with immediate release of the fund to you through my Lawyer. I want you to always pray for me because I donâ€™t have more days to live.

Kindly reply me privately at mrsdebbielevin@firemail.eu

Please stay safe
Yours in the lord
Debbie Levin
