[ 419 SCAM E-MAILS ]

Below are just a few random samples of the many 419 scam e-mails that I received in just one day in January, 2008 - . Each one of these is a scam of one kind or another.

While there are many e-mails here, these e-mails are just a very small fraction of the actual amount of scam e-mails sent out each day by 419 scammers. Thus, if you've received a suspicious e-mail that isn't listed here on these pages, it doesn't mean that it isn't a scam. In fact, if you receive anything even remotely similar to any of the scam e-mails you see here or if you arrived at this page via an internet search, I can 100% guarantee you...YOU HAVE RECEIVED A SCAM E-MAIL!

To see what this site is really all about, visit The Games section.

There are many different types of 419 scam (examples) but they all promise you something (fortune, job, loan, lottery prize, gold dust, 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.

It's important to note that any real people or legitimate organizations mentioned in these e-mails have absolutely no connection with these scammers! None of the scammers use their real names. Sometimes they take on the identity of real people to help them convince you that they are genuine. Whatever these scammers tell you, DON'T believe a word of it!!!

Deputy Minister Safety and Security
South Africa

Dear Friend,
After due deliberation with my children, I decided to contact you for
 your
assistance in standing as a beneficiary to the sum of US$3.5M ( Three
Million, Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars Only) First, let
 me
start by introducing myself, I am MRS SUSAN SHABANGU, a mother of three
children and the Deputy Minister Safety and Security since 1st April
 1996
to date under the President of South Africa MR THABO MBEKI. You can
 view
my profile at my website http://www.gov.za/gol/gcis_profile.jsp?id=1066

After the swearing in ceremony making me the Deputy Minister of
 Minerals 
and Energy, my husband Mr Ndelebe Shabangu died while he was on an
official trip to Trinidad and Tobago in 2002. After his death, I
discovered that he had some funds in a dollar account which mounted to
 the
sum of US$3.5M with FINANCE SECURITY HOUSE .

This fund emanated as a result of an over-invoiced contract which he
executed with the Government of South Africa. Though I assisted him in
getting this contract but I never knew that it was over-invoiced by
 him. I
am afraid that the government of South Africa might start to
 investigate
on contracts awarded from 1998 to date. If they discover this money in
his bank account, they will confiscate it and seize his assets here in
South Africa and this will definetely affect my political career in
government.

I want your assistance in clearing this money from FINANCE SECURITY
 HOUSE.
As soon as the fund is cleared, you are expected to move it immediately
into another personal bank account in your country. I will see to it
 that
the account is not traced from South Africa. As soon as you have
confirmed the fund into your account, I will send my eldest son with my
Attorney to come to your country to discuss on business investments.

For your assistance, I am offering you Six hundred thousand United
 States
Dollars Only However, you have to assure me and also be ready to go
 into
agreement with me that you will not elope with my fund.

If you agree to my terms, kindly as a matter of urgency send me an
 email.
Due to my sensitive position in the South African Government, I would
 not
WANT you to call me on phone or send a fax to me. All correspondence
 must
be by email to my private email.
If you want to speak with my Attorney, that is fine and okay by me. His
chambers will be representing my interest with you. All correspondence
must be made either to my Attorney Barrister oki nzeagali of oki
 chambers
or send me an email to my private email box on
 susan_shabangu1@yahoo.co.uk
I will also like you to give me your contact address of telephone, fax
 and
email to enable my Attorney call or reach you from time to time.

Please I do not need to remind you of the need for absolute
Confidentiality if this transaction must succeed. YOU MUST NOT CALL ME!
 If
you do not feel comfortable with this transaction, do not hesitate to
discontinue.

Thanks for your anticipated co-operation and my regards to your
family.
Yours faithfully,
MRS. SUSAN SHABANGU
Deputy Minister Safety and Security
South Africa

FEDERAL EXECUTIVE INNER CHAMBER 
ASO ROCK ABUJA 
SWITCH BOARD---234-9-2727200 
OFFICIAL GAZZETT
BE WARNED! 

Sequel to series of complaints/petition flooding the information desk
 of the presidency, which this present government is not comfortable
 with, a closed door meeting was held by the Federal Executive Council,
 headed by the President and Commander in Chief of Federal Republic of
 Nigeria where issues relating to foreign contract payment was pivotal to the
 discussion. 

On the proceeding of the meeting based on serious matters relating to
 foreign contract settlement, where most of the contractors indicted the
 present Central Bank Governor Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, that he subject
 them to endless payment, which they are not comfortable with. To this the
 Federal Executive Council have mandated Rev. Donald Duke, and
 empowered him with the responsibility of settlement of contract payment, hence
 Prof. Chukwuma Soludo has been advised with immediate effect to forward
 all the relevant documents of beneficiaries to the office of Rev.
 Donald Duke, email: revdduke01@yahoo.co.uk.
 Which he has already started and everything is in progress. But we
 never ruled out the fact that most of the beneficiaries who claims to have
 spoken to Prof. Soludo may be wrong, rather they have spoken to
 hoodlums that claims and impersonated names for illegal extortion. And also
 be aware that we are not making use of any correspondence bank and we
 have no representative in any foreign bank, but direct to beneficiaries
 bank account by swift. 

The Foreign Ambassadors and the Diplomatic Corps that where present,
 has been briefed and a white paper on that has already been issued to
 them. And also a gazette has been forwarded to the senate house for
 enactment.Be also informed that your (I.P.O) Irrevocable Payment Order has
 been approved by the Federal Executive Council for payments and this has
 already been forwarded to the office of Rev. Donald Duke. You are to
 contact him on his security phone: 234-802-3713-859.Note: Your balance
 of US$4M(FOUR MILLION DOLLARS) is now ready to be transferred into your
 account, after the initial payment of US$20M, into your account on 9th
 July 2003 with, JP MORGAN CHASE BANK:A/C.0005664989/ROUTING.FF567B.
