[ 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!!!

Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation CORPORATE
ANNEX OFFICE VICTORIA ISLAND Cablegram:Napetcor
website:http://www.nnpcgroup.com/management.htm
Dear Sir/Madam,
I
am O. A. Anyaoku the GED, Refineries &
Petrochemicals, Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation [NNPC]. My colleagues have
mandated me
to transfer the sum of US$88 Millions recovered from an
over-invoiced
contracts involving the Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation[NNPC]
into several private account in Europe and United States. A
total sum
of US$75,500,000.00 has been transferred before the emergence
of this
present Civilian Administration, in May 1999 leaving the
balance of
US$12,500,000.00 which we now have access to following the
failure of
our predecessors to complete the transfer before they bowed
out of
office leaving us with this golden opportunity to transfer it
for our
benefit. I have made proper
arrangement/documentation to transfer
the balance (US$12,500,000.00) which is retained in a coded
account of
the NNPC with one of the banks in Nigeria. We are soliciting
that you
help us to receive the fund in trust.
We
cannot complete this transaction smoothly without the
participation of
a foreign partner who would provide an account where the
funds could
be lodged. Since it is a contract payment, the funds must be remitted
to a foreign account. Also people in such position are not
permitted
by the Nigerian Civil Service law to own or operate foreign
accounts
while still in service. The remittance of the funds requires
little
documentation that would be completed as soon as you provide
us with a
secured bank account where you may wish to receive the money.
I can
conveniently assure you that all modalities have been put in
place for
a smooth transaction that is absolutely risk-free as long as
you give
us maximum cooperation to make this a success.
There
is no risk involved on your part in this transaction since my
colleagues and I have covered this transaction with adequate contract
and external credit documents from the beginning. What we require from
you now by Email are viz: (i) A reliable Bank Account
(presumably an
empty bank account, if available). {ii} A named beneficiary of the
account (i.e. personal or company’s account. {iii} Name and
address
of Company that stands as Funds Beneficiary. (iv) Private
tel/mobile
phone Number. COULD YOU KINDLY TELL US WHAT PERCENTAGE (%) OF
THIS
MONEY (US$12,500,000.00) YOU WOULD LIKE TO TAKE AFTER THE
TRANSFER TO
YOUR BANK ACCOUNT? Also we should like to invest our own share of the
money in investment projects: Real Estate Properties,
Tourism, Hotel
business in your country. How did you see these business
opportunities? Please reply urgently by e-mail as we expect
that the
transaction will not take more than ten working days.
And please note that this transaction
must be TOP SECRET
Best regards,
O. A. Anyaoku

Dear Friend
Compliment of the season.
My name is Senator Mahmud Bello, the Chairman of the Senate committee on Niger Delta in the National Assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. I am writing you to earnestly Solicit for your assistance in helping to receive some sum of money into your account for safe keeping.
THE PROPOSAL:
I have the sum of US$31,000,000.00 (Thirty One Million Dollars) that I intend to transfer overseas through the assistance of a foreign partner. This money came as a result of Over provision in the budget for unpaid contract sum, to foreign contractors.
This over provision was done by my committee, but all payments have been made to beneficiaries leaving behind the over budgeted amount which amounts to US$31,000,000.00 which is deposited in the Nigeria Deposit Bank here in Nigeria but as civil servants we can not make claim of the funds or operate any foreign account which is against the code of conduct of my country hence I am calling for your assistance to transfer this fund into your acount at the shortest period.
I have agreed to transfer the funds overseas for my campaign funding and other investment purposes, private use and for investment purposes with your help.
I am contacting you therefore, to stand in as the beneficiary to process this fund into your custody. As soon as you consent to this I will immediately send you title documents to the fund in your name so you can make claim for it. I will provide you with 30% for assisting us and 10% to be set aside for reimbursement,for expenses that may arise during the process of concluding the transaction.
The fund shall be transferred to you legally in accordance to all laid down procedures governing transfer of funds. I have perfected all modalities for the successful transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary.
Finally, I have to reassure you that this transaction is 100% risk free and should be kept absolutely confidential. Presently, you can reach me by return mail,you should also include your telephone numbers if any,for secured communication between us.
Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
I await your response.
Also Note that we need to conclude this transaction before the end of next month as we can still make payments on last years budget till this time.
Best Regards,
Senator Mahmud Bello.
