"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:
- "the consignment" (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)
- "trunk box" (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)
- "consignment " (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)

- "a diplomat " ("diplomats" who perform deliveries of cash or other valuables to you only exist in 419 scams)

MR. LENZEY GRAY TOOLE JR
INSPECTION UNIT
Johnston regional Airport, Smithfield, NC.

Dear,

I am Mr Lenzey Gray Tools Jr Director Inspection Unit United Nations
Inspection Agent in Johnston regional Airport, Smithfield, NC. During our
investigation, I

discovered An abandoned shipment from a Diplomat from United Kingdom under
i ship forwarder was transferred from JF Kennedy Airport to our facility
here in Smithfield

and when scanned it revealed an undisclosed sum of money in a Metal Trunk
Box weighing approximately 110kg each. The consignment was abandoned
because the Content was

not properly declared by the consignee as money rather it was declared as
personal effect to avoid diversion by the Shipping Agent also the Diplomat
inability to pay

for Non Inspection Fees.

On my assumption, each of the boxes will contain more than $29M to $30M
each and the consignment is still left in storage house till today through
a registered

shipping Company, Courier Dispatch Service Limited a division of Tran guard
LTD. The Consignment they are two metal box with weight of about 110kg each
(Internal

dimension: W61 x H156 x D73 (cm).Effective capacity: 680
L.)Approximately,The details of the consignment including your name the
official document from United Nation

office in London are tagged on the Metal Trunk box.

Provide your Phone Number full address, name of nearest Airport around and
other details or disregard. You can send the required details to me for
onward delivery.

All communication must be held extremely confidential. I can get everything
concluded within 3-6 hours upon your acceptance and proceed to your address
for delivery.

But I must get assurance from you concerning my 50% before I will proceed.

I want us to transact this business and share the money, since the shippers
have abandoned it and ran away. We will pay for the Non inspection fee and
arrange for the

boxes to be moved out of this Airport to your address, once we are through
I will deploy the services of a secured shipping Company geared to provide
the security
it needs to your doorstep. Or I can bring it by myself to avoid any more
trouble. But I will share it 50% to you and 50% to me.But you have to
