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.

The email is trying to convince you that the poor dear has met some hard times, she is the daughter of a man who had accumulated millions of dollars that she now says she wants to share with you.

There is a couple of catches though;
The money she speaks of does not exist
"She" is a male
She will need you to pay fees
Then more fees
You will never receive a single cent in return

It is a scam
