 TITLE: Don’t Get Fooled By Scammers This April CONTENT: 2\\. 419 Scam\n------------\nAlso known as the Nigerian Prince scam, the 419 scam is a well-known and sophisticated fraud that has been fooling people around the world for years. The specifics of each fraud vary, but the scams typically involve an email from a self-proclaimed prince or government official offering millions of dollars in exchange for your help getting the money out of their country. After the victims turn over personal records and banking information, fraudsters use the information to impersonate them and steal their money. This type of scam can make you believe that you got lucky and will soon be rich, but typically ends with your money disappearing. Just remember: If you get a random email offering you millions of dollars, the offer is probably too good to be true. END
