419 Scam Example: "ADEXEC INVESTERINGS FIRMA / Mrs Joyce de Vries / Elizabeth Vladimir"
"ADEXEC INVESTERINGS FIRMA / Mrs Joyce de Vries / Elizabeth Vladimir" is a fake lottery scam run by a gang in the Netherlands.

Forward lottery emails that contain email addresses ending in @adexec.com to address [email protected] and ask for those email accounts to be terminated. Outblaze has a zero-tolerance policy on spam.
