This is just a small sampling of the
many hundreds of advance fee fraud e-mails received each day here at
419BAITER
headquarters. It is 100% pure B.S. Purity Guaranteed!
There are many different types of 419 scam (examples)
but they all promise you something (fortune, job with salary /
commision,
low-interest loan, lottery prize,
bargain gold dust / diamonds,
work visa, etc.) in return
for a small 'fee' or some kind of remittance. Of course, there is no
fortune, no job, no loan, no prize to be had. It's just a ploy to get
you to
willingly send them money.

section.
NOTE TO
DUMBASS SPAMMERS:
My scam e-mail filtering system is pretty good
but it isn't perfect.
Occasionally a regular spam e-mail will get mistakenly published here
as
a
419 scam. This is inadvertent. If you are a spammer and you don't wish
to have your crap mistakenly published on this website as a
419
advance fee
scam, the solution is
simple. Don't mail your crap to harvested e-mail
addresses.
