Drawing obvious inspiration from the advance fee fraud internet scam that has been perfected by Nigerian criminal gangs over the past few decades, Jamaica now boasts of numerous advance-fee fraud gangs who annually reap millions of US greenback dollars from gullible US citizens, by means of the infamous "Jamaican Lottery" scam.

As the name suggests, the lottery scam entails promising imaginary lottery cash windfalls to unsuspecting online punters, in exchange for the usual never-ending list of "handling fees" that are then demanded and collected over time. This variant of advance-fee online fraud is unique to Jamaica, in much the same way as the imaginary "Abacha Billions" scam will forever be associated with Nigerian online criminals.

The genesis of the advanced fee fraud scam certainly traces to Nigerian criminal gangs, who may take this acknowledgement to heart by demanding trademark royalties from their Jamaican counterparts, forgetting that the Jamaican posse rude-boy gangs generally do NOT take kindly to such demands, given their own fiercely territorial and violent nature.
