"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:
- "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)
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.

Subject: Benefits Funds

I am Mrs. Judy Florin, I just received my benefits funds from FED and I have good information and news for you.

I am one of those entitled to inheritance benefits and compensation recovery payment some years ago and they refused to release my funds, I had paid over $40,000 trying to get my payment all to no avail.

I decided to travel down to Northwest Washington, DC with all my documents and I was directed to Mr. Mark Gould the director, Federal Reserve Bank, he is the director of the contracts, inheritance benefits and compensation recovery payment commission.

I met him and he explained everything to me. He said whoever has been contacting me is fake because the contracts, inheritance benefits and compensation payments procedures clearly states that the beneficiary/recipient is exempted from paying all those so much out of pocket fees or charges to receive said full payment.

Mr. Mark Gould made all arrangements for the successful recovery of my funds, which has been released to me and I am very happy right now after receiving my $4,900,000.00 USD.

The good information and news I have for is, Mr. Mark Gould showed me the full information of those that are yet to receive their payments and I clearly saw your name and email address as one of the beneficiaries and I decided that I must send email to notify you if you are concern about your benefits funds, you should stop contacting and dealing with no other person than Mark Gould.

You can contact him directly on the information below.

Name: Mark Gould
Email: mark.gould@execs.com

I think there are a lot of people claiming they can assist you to release your benefits funds, but they are all asking to pay too many fees without doing what they are supposed to do for you to receive your funds.

So you must stop dealing with those people that are contacting you and telling you that your fund is with them, it is not in any way with them; they are only taking advantage of you and extorting money from you according to FED information.

The only money I paid after I met Mark Gould was just $790 for my benefits funds Clearance and Entitlement Certificate, take note of that.

(Note: The only money I paid, which you will likely pay, is $790 for your benefits funds Clearance and Entitlement Certificate, and my benefits funds were paid through a wire transfer direct to my bank.

Once again stop contacting those people as they are all liars, so I advise you to contact Mr. Mark Gould so that he can help you.

Mrs. Judy Florin.
