See on separate page the original email
texts of such scam offers that I received.
Either they want you to give them the number of
your bank account, ostensibly to remit your win,
or you are required to pay a sizable sum of money
(four till six thousand Euros) to cover security,
insurance, etc. costs.
Once you’ve sent them the money, or they have
helped themselves to your bank account,
you won’t hear much of them any more.
You won’t see anything again of the money they got
from you, least of all the lottery win they lured you
with at the start.
Don’t send them any money!
The Scam:
This seems to be an extension of the scam generally known as
“Nigerian 419er”.
As emails belonging to the latter genre are now making up one of the largest
portions of the growing profusion of spam on the internet, hardly anyone is
falling for it anymore. So they apparently needed to think of something new,
i.e. this lottery scam. The perpetrators seem in all likelihood to be the same
(this became clear from more recent
correspondence with one of them,
and also from Amsterdam-based “Nigerian offers” like the one
quoted below).
They send you an email announcing that you are the
lucky winner of a fantastic lottery win.
If you respond, they typically send you an application form
(see examples below) to fill in.
If you demand guarantees first, they send you an
official-looking document like the ones displayed
below under “Facsimiles”.
Don’t disclose your bank connections!!
Avoid calling them on the phone!!!
(nowadays, they more often right away send an application form to be filled,
see below).
Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for completing and submitting your verification form.We are presently in the process of verifying your claims. Meanwhile you are to immediately make payment of our processing and transfer fees of Euro 5,625. Remittance is to be made either by Western Union money transfer to our Account Manager or by Telex Transfer to our Regional account. Find remittance below: WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER OPTION: Name of Receiver: Mr. John Edwards Address of Receiver: 76 New Fetter Lane London,EC4A 1AG U.K. Although western union money transfer is our prefferred means of receiving payments,as it is less cumbersome and faster,you should request for our account coordinates via email or fax,if you insist on paying via this means. You are to send receipt of payment via fax or as email attachment with all necessary details so we can collect the funds and immediately conclude the processing and transfer of your prize money immediately. Best Regards, |
<- same address as
“AVS GOLDEN AGE FINANCE UK”
(see below)
|
The receiver name and address for money transfers changes from case to case of course.
The sum they require you to transfer also varies, e.g. “4,125 Euros”, “US $ 4,968”, etc.
Note that they use a comma (customary in English) rather than a point (customary in Dutch) as thousands-delimiter in the sums.

The following is the text of my input to the guestbook of the Dutch police of Amsterdam-Amstelland region, reporting the first “Dutch” lotto offer that I received:
Dear Sir/Madam, I have recieved an email fraud or scam business offer, ostensibly from: > LOTTO NL > 72657, NL-2115 DB >AMSTERDAM, > THE NETHERLANDS > > From: The Promotions Manager > International Lotto/ Prize Award Department. It provided the following contact information for responses: > MR. ARENT DAVIS > FINANCE DIRECTOR, > SPRINT SECURITIES BV, > TEL/FAX: 31 619676795 > MOBILE: +8821652070052 > FAX: 31 205248276 / 31 205241476 > EMAIL: arentdavis@hotpop.com If you wish, I can send you the complete email text, if you let me know to what email address you want me to send it. Sincerely, Waruno Mahdi Waruno Mahdi 12-02-2003 |
I have not recieved any reply from the Dutch police, I had not known the address to which I should actually have sent the message. But I have meanwhile found out, and you are recommended to report new lottery scam messages you receive to the following address:Meanwhile, I have contacted the Dutch police at this address and always received friendly replies from them, in which they also indicated their interest in reports about this type of scam activities. Even if it is not always possible for them to take direct steps against the scammers, it helps them keep track of what is happenning, and when the opportunity presents itself, they do strike (like recently against 5 scammers who were indicted and sentenced to various periods up to four-and-half years prison). financiele-expertise@amsterdam.politie.nl
Scam offers from the UK can be reported to: Note: when you report a scam email, try to include its complete header, so as to facilitate tracing the scam sender.
I have received responses from several recipients of scam lottery offers, who informed me that my input in the above-mentioned guestbook nevertheless helped them avoid falling for the scam. Two have furthermore been so kind as to send me the “letters of guarantee” reproduced below in facsimile with their consent. fraud.alert@met.police.uk
Since this web page was mounted, I have also received more responses from people informing me that finding this site saved them from losing a large sum of money to the scammers. Well that really is good news, and let’s hope that with united efforts we can put the scammers out of business altogether.

These are contact addresses provided by the senders of lotto scam emails, to which recipients are supposed to send their response. We cannot guarantee for their correctness nor take any reponsibility for actions you might take upon becoming acquainted with these addresses.
Note that some contact persons change their name, or the name of the company they ostentatively represent, or switch email addresses, phone and fax numbers, or even confuse these latter. Some apparently even skip across the country border, hopefully because it was beginning to get too hot for them in one country.
(Newest additions are at the bottom of the list)

US and International False Lottery Scam — ICC: Fake lottery scam plague — CBS: Foreign Lottery Scam
| During the last few years, so-called “Nigerian” 419-er scammers have been spreading their activities over various countries. For some time, they seem to have considered the Netherlands as a convenient base for their activities. Perhaps they thought they could missuse the freedom which the liberal traditions of this country provides. |
| This included distributors of conventional 419-er scam letters, e.g. such as the one in which the writer purports to be the wife of former Nigerian military dictator Gen. Abacha (see below), as well as the “Zimbabwean farmer” variant (e.g. see here), and most recently the “Dutch lottery” scam treated above. |
| Nevertheless, the Dutch police has apparently been aware of what was going on, and has managed to hunt down some of the culprits. As the Amsterdam newspaper De Telegraaf (12 May 2003) reports, charges have been brought before a court against five suspected fraudsters from Nigeria and Benin. Interesting details from the first day in the court have been described by Jan Libbenga in Emerce (16 May 2003) (see also readers’ comments). On May 28, the court passed three to four-and-half year sentences on four of the accused, and only the fifth “got away” with 301 days detention (Emerce 28 May 2003) |
| Meanwhile, one person who had responded to an “Abacha widow” offer and received instructions for further procedure, realized in time that this was a scam, and has sent me a copy of the instruction mail and kindly permitted me to mount it on this page (see below). It is particularly interesting because it exhibits a similar application procedure as for lottery scams treated above. |

‘Famous’.

US fax number ;-)
