It's important to note that
any real people or legitimate
organizations mentioned in these scam e-mails have absolutely no
connection
with this scam!
The scammers never use their real
names.
They frequently 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!!!

This is just a small sampling of the
many hundreds of advance fee fraud e-mails received each day here at
419 BAITER
headquarters.
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,
cheap 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.
