Has someone offered you a huge sum of money or a valuable consignment? It's a 419 or advance fee fraud - find out how they work, and what to do to be safe.

This scammer has recently changed the name of his fake deceased father from Robert Mugabe to Ngewe Mugabe. He obviously wasn't having much success in claiming to be the an orphan son of the still-breathing president of Zimbabwe. :lol:

This typical advanced fee fraud scam will pass a victim along to a fake banker, Dr Edmund Hilary who in turn will direct the victim to contact an equally fake attorney, Chief Williams Kouadio Esq. These three characters are actually all the same person, which may be confirmed by checking the IP's in the scammers' emails. It is at this point that the scammer begins to demand the payment of fees via Western Union or Moneygram. There is no $2.5m inheritance. Any money sent to this criminal will never be returned to the scam victim.

Good day!

I know this mail will come to you as a surprise since we have not had previous correspondence, please bear with me. I like to have a good relationship with you and I have a special reason why I decided to contact you. I am Peter Mugabe, 19 years old from Cote d Ivoire, the only child of Late Mr Ngewe Mugabe.

My sufferings began after they killed my parents and my only sister because my father was an opposition leader to the president of my country(Ivory Coast West Africa).Since then I have been with my uncles but they have made thing to be more difficult for me because of their eyes on my late father’s properties. They planned to take away all my late father's treasury and properties from me since the unexpected death of my beloved Parents.

Before the death of my father, he has $2.5 m USD (Two million, five hundred thousand dollars.) in a fixed deposit domiciliary account with a bank in C?te d’Ivoire that I am the next of kin.

I humbly need your assistance to help get this money transferred to your account, to serve as my guardian and to make an arrangement for me to come over after the fund is transferred, also to look for a good venture where the money will be invested.

If you are willing to help me kindly get back to me. I am waiting for your urgent and positive response. Please do keep this to your self; I plead with you not to disclose it to anybody till after the transfer and I am in your country. I am willing to offer you 10% of the total sum as compensation of your effort.

Note that the confidentiality of this transaction would be highly appreciated in replying soonest to my private email address :[email protected]

Thanks and best regards.

Peter Mugabe.
