[ 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 - (the 13th). 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!!!

Dear  friend,
 
This letter must surprise you because we have never meet before neither in person nor by correspondence, but I believe that it takes just one day to meet or know someone either physically or through correspondence.
 
I got your contact through my personal search, you were revealed as being quite astute in private entrepreneurship, and one has no doubt in your ability to handle a financial business transaction. I am Mr. Liu Yan a transfer supervisor operations in investment section in Bank of China Ltd. Secretariat of the BOCHK Charitable Foundation 13/F. Bank of China Tower, 1 Garden Road, Hong Kong I have an obscured business suggestion for you.Before the U.S and Iraqi war our client General Mohammed Jassim Ali who work with the Iraqi forces and also business man made a numbered fixed deposit for 18 calendar months, with a value of Nineteen million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars only in my branch.
 
Upon maturity several notices was sent to him, even early in the war. Again after the war another notification was sent and still no response came from him. We later find out that General Mohammed Jassim Ali and his family had been killed during the war in a bomb blast that hit their home.After further investigation it was also discovered that General Mohammed Jassim Ali did not declare any next of kin in his official papers including the paper work of his bank deposit.
 
And he also confided in me the last time he was at my office that no one except me knew of his deposit in my bank. So, Nineteen million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars is still lying in my bank and no one will ever come forward to claim it. What bothers me most is that, according to the to the laws of my country at the expiration 3 years the funds will revert to the ownership of the Hong Kong Government if nobody applies to claim the funds. Against this backdrop, my suggestion to you is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand as the next of kin to General Mohammed Jassim Ali so that you will be able to receive his funds.I want you to know that I have had everything planned out so that we shall come out successful.
 
I have contacted an attorney that will prepare the necessary document that will back you up as the next of kin to General Mohammed Jassim Ali, all what is required from you at this stage is for you to provide me with your Full Names, private phone number and Address so that the attorney can commence his job.
 
After you have been made the next of kin, the attorney will also fill in for claims on your behalf and secure the necessary approval and letter of probate in your favor for the transfer of the funds to an account that will be provided by you with my guidance.There is no risk involved at all in the matter as we are going adopt a legalized method and the attorney will prepare all the necessary documents.
 
Please endeavor to observe utmost discretion in all matters concerning this issue. Once the funds have been transferred to your nominated bank account we shall discuss the percentage issue on your reply.If you are interested please send me your full names, private phone/fax and current residential address, on this email address: liuyan_3bnkofchn@yahoo.com.hk ,and finally after that I shall provide you with more details of this operation.
 
Your earliest response to this letter will be appreciated.
 
Kind Regards
Liu Yan

Dear Sir/Madam,

URGENT BUSINESS PROPOSAL.

After my official enquiry from the foreign trade office of the chambers
 of commerce & industry here in 
Johannesburg South Africa, I decided to contact you but I did not
 disclose the intention to anyone 
else because of the delicate nature of the project. I found your
 profile very interesting and decided 
to reach you directly to solicit for your assistance and guidelines in
 making a business investment 
and transfer of US$45,000,000.00(Forty-five million) to your country
 within the next few days.

Please I must plead for your confidence in this transaction. I am a
 high placed official working with 
Department of (Finance & Economic Affairs) in Johannesburg. I am
 currently in need of a silent 
foreign partner whose identity we can use to transfer this sum of
 money. But at this moment, I am 
constrained to issue more details about this profitable business
 investment until I get your response 
by email, please if you can take out a moment of your very busy
 schedule today to respond back to 
my private email below for more details and include your private
 telephone number in your 
response which I will highly appreciate.

This fund accrued legitimately to us as commission from foreign
 contracts, through our private 
connections.

The fund is presently waiting to be remitted from the bank here in
 South Africa to any overseas 
beneficiary confirmed by us as associate/receiver. By virtue of my
 position as a civil servant in my 
country, I cannot acquire this money in my name. Because as a high
 placed civil servant, I am not 
allowed by the civil service code of conduct to own or operate bank
 accounts outside of our shores. 
On the other hand, it is not safe for me to keep the money here due to
 unstable political 
environment. I have been mandated to look for an overseas silent
 partner who could work with me 
to facilitate transfer of this fund for our mutual benefit, hence the
 reason for this email.

My proposal is that after you receive the funds, it would be shared as
 follows: (1) 25% to you as 
commission for your co-operation and assistance in facilitating the
 transfer, while the remaining 70% 
belongs to me and 5% will be set aside to repay any expenses made in
 the process of transferring 
the funds to your country.

You will be free to take out your commission immediately after the
 money hits your account in your 
country. Since my objective is to invest the money in a foreign
 country, it would be appreciated if 
you could also help me with advices and direction on investing into
 profitable ventures in your 
country.

However, this is optional, and if it is not convenient for you to
 further assist me with investing the 
money, we can end our cooperation after you make available to me my
 part of the money. The 
transaction, although discreet, is legitimate and the money will be
 transferred successfully with all 
necessary back-up official documents showing the legitimate
 source/origin of fund. The transfer will 
be effected as soon as we reach an agreement and you furnish me with a
 suitable response 
indicating your interest for processing the transfer. I plead with you
 on one issue, whether you are 
interested or not, kindly do not expose this information to any one
 else. I confirm that the transaction 
is legitimate and without any risks either to me or yourself. Please,
 give me your response 
immediately by returning this mail through my alternative email
 address.
