    Nigerian Lottery Scam

    http://www.joewein.de/sw/419-phone-uk.htm#phone-uk

    "Scam phone numbers in the United Kingdom (+44):

    Most "419" scams using +44 70xx numbers involve emails that are sent from Nigeria and other West African countries, not from the UK! If you see a +44 70xx number in a 419 scam email it usually means you're dealing with criminals based in Nigeria.

    UK phone numbers starting with '70' are "Personal numbering" in the "Find me anywhere" range. Charges for calls to these numbers are not distance-dependent. They can cost as much as UKL 0.50 (USD 0.90) per minute to call and can forward the call to virtually any phone number in the world. Forwarding numbers can be set up for free and completely anonymously via websites such as uknumbers.com.

    In most cases when you call one of these numbers the phone that starts ringing will actually be a mobile phone somewhere in Nigeria, as the UK number has been programmed to auto-forward calls to another number. These +44 70xx numbers are used as a redirector service to obscure the fact that the person taking the call is not actually based in Europe. The UK number is used to lend credibility to the scam. "


    Running it thru the Scam-O-Matic at the above site produced this result:

    "The message you submitted has been checked
    Please carefully review the following Scam-O-Matic results:

    An email address mentioned inside this email has been used in a known fraud before.
    This email looks like a fake lottery scam.
    Consider the following facts about real lotteries:

    They do not notify winners by email.
    You can not win without first buying a lottery ticket.
    They do not randomly select email addresses to award prizes to.
    They do not use free email accounts (Yahoo, Hotmail, etc) to communicate with you.
    They do not tell you to call a mobile phone number.
    They do not tell you to keep your winnings secret.
    They will never ask a winner to pay any fees to receive a prize!
    Any "courier service", "lawyer" or "bank" that a fake "lottery" may have introduced you to is also fake!
    The following phrases should put you on alert:
    "fiduciary agent":
    real lotteries do not use a "claim agent" / "fiduciary agent"
    "hundred thousand great british pounds", "00,000.00":
    they want you to be blinded by the prospect of quick money, but the only money that ever changes hands in 419 scams is from you to the criminals
    This email lists mobile phone numbers. Use of such numbers is typical for scams because they allow criminals to conceal their true location. They can receive calls in an Internet cafe from where they send you emails, while pretending to be in some office.
    +447024054064 (UK, redirects to a mobile phone in another country)
    This email lists free webmail addresses. Besides personal use for legitimate purposes, use of such addresses is also typical for scams. NOTE: Lotteries, banks, government agencies and any but the smallest of companies do not normally use such addresses. Criminals use them to anonymously send and receive email at Internet cafes.
