Dear Friend,
I write to seek your cooperation as my foreign partner and
your assistance to enable the two of us own properties and
invest in the stable economy of your country. I apologize if
this mail message does not suit your personal or business
ethics.
My name is Barrister George Barnett an attorney to a deceased
immigrant property magnate who was based in Nigeria and a
general contractor to chevron. Also referred to as my client.
On the 25th of July 2000, my client, his wife and their two
Children died in a plane crash. Since then, I have been
managing his properties here in Africa and some of his
properties he put out for sale, which i monitored the payment
as his attorney, has been bought and paid for. Now the money
paid was deposited into his Local account here. I have
contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property
left behind by my client before they get confiscated or
declared unserviceable by his banking institution.
Particularly, the bank has issued me a notice to provide any of
his next of kin or have the account confiscated within a short
time. My late client has an account valued at $20,000,000.00.
All I require is your honest co-operation to enable us see this
deal through. I guarantee that this will be executed under a
legitimate arrangement that will protect you from any breach of
the law. Trust me as his attorney that this is a risk-free
relationship. Send me your full names, occupation, address,
telephone and fax numbers to enable us discuss further about this
transaction.
A swift acknowledgement on the receipt of this mail would be
appreciated. Please reply to my confidential Email:
bar.george@terra.es
I remain obliged,
George Barnett.

any real people and / or legitimate

Scammers never use their real
names.
They frequently take on the identity of real people to help make themselves and their scam appear legitimate.

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.

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.
