Got one today....I won 752 thousand pounds (yea right) same emails, same crap Too funny...but the sad part is that I ACTUALLY went through my mind and thought "what contest in the UK did I enter?"

Anonymous said...

OH GOD! How dumb do I feel?! We've just started doing the lottery and I thought it was genuine. I have given my name and address - do I need to start worrying!! Anyone know if/ who I would report this too?! I'm now panicking! Any help gratefully received!

Anonymous said...

I Unfortunately did the same thing, but with only a name address and phone number, they can not access your bank accounts, just don't give out any information reguarding your bank accounts, such as routing numbers etc... without this info, they can do not much of anything.

Lets be realystic, if really you won 500,000.00 of britain sterling pounds, converting this into a US dollars will be $993,547.32. Its to caliente to be truth. Besides, I think that the first think that a person should do is to contact their local Embassy, where they can find more information.

Yip, I just did the same myself. I also replied with details. I usually NEVER reply to spam, but it did sound genuine... But now that I've read that others get ALMOST the same email, I will certinally not be replying to any future rubbish from these people! They've got guts, and taken me for a fool! They will get what they deserve!
(But if one converts it to South African Rands (where I live), I would recieve in excess of 9 million, COOL! but never gonna happen)! :-(

I too received the similar mail from MICROSFT CORPORATIONS (mcwl_000@hotmail.com) with Subject YAHOO MAIL AND MCROSOFT WINDOWS AWARD WINNING NOTIFICATION COMMUNICATION on 27 June 2007, which I read on 7th July 2007. I normally delete such mails (superlotto etc) but I thought that this is genuine and replied with my details to one Mr called Dr. John Sixtus who they called a claim agent. Undersigned was Nailly Nelson. I had one US $ 1 Million. on 8th June 2007 I got a reply saying I need to come to South Africa to sign Affidavit of Draft, if I am unable to go there, then I need to hire a Lawyer who would sign for me. Then it clicked to my mind that this must be a spam mail. Then I searched for Dr. John Sixtus in Google, and I found his name in "http://www.data-wales.co.uk/nigerian_lottery.htm" which is a "The Internet Fraud Advisory" - A not for profit group based in Britain. Husssshhhh
Now I just want to know that whoever has given their details to these fraud people, are these spammer contacting them?

Also I was asked to transfere a thousand euro to the account details of which I'll get by e-mail, once they receive my personal details and open an account in my name in Spanish Bank. When I asked, why you need so much money? They said 'to activate your account'. I then said I have no money as am student and work part-time and biggest amount I can send would be €50.00! He put me on hold and then asked me to call him back in 10 minutes!
Which I never did!

hi, i received this lottery e email 2 days ago, obviously we wanted to believe it was real, but my sensible side knew it couldnt be! we did ring the 'courier' to see what thye said as i was intrigued by the costs involved. He of course assured me that it was 1oo% geniune!!
I am really cheesed off about this as even though we know it to be a scam, there is some part of us that wants to have our life changed by a bit of extra dosh, eh?
we need to get this reproted and quickly, any ideas who we go to out there??????

ok: HOW DO I GET THESE LOSERS TO STOP EMAILING ME?! it is REALLY annoying! Can't we notify a federal agency or something to take care of the problem?

IT IS HIGHLY RIDICULOUS TO GET SUCH AN EMAIL WHICH ARE USING THE YAHOO/MSN COMPANY. WHY THE ACTION IS NOT BEING TAKEN AGAINST THESE UNSCRUPULOUS ELEMENTS WHICH KEEPS THE INNOCENT PERSONS IN DREAMS AND WHEN A PERSON SEND MONEY TO THEM HE FELT CHEATED. A CRIMINAL ACTION MUST BE TAKEN AGAINST THESE PEOPLE.

Mine arrived today 8/3/08 & cant beleive this scam has been going on for so long, to be honest im not sure if they can do anything with the info that folk are giving (identity fraud) but after reading all the other comments it does sound as tho they are after money as they have eventually asked for money to be sent, just do not send anything at all or even reply, I havent. the classic signs for a scam are there for everyone to see, spelling mistakes being the obvious one. I have had so many emails virtually identical to these from many different places all over the world plus scamming job offers & transfer of funds etc, I report each one through my email provider but really dont know what else anyone can do, basically if you havent bought a ticket from said company then how can you have won?? Always do your research before handing any kind of info over, a two minute google search can save you a lot of money & worry no matter how desperate you may be feeling at the time

If you have already sent information to these people I suggest you check out this website http://www.consumerfraudreporting.org/ifyouhavebeenscammed.php

Unfortunatly there are people that fall for these scams or they would never continue. The lure of something for nothing or very little is a hook and who would not want that. What people should try is tell the scammers to take the "processing" fees out of the winnings. Keep e-mailing the scammers, tie up their time, make it not so profitable for them. Have some fun send them files with large attachments.

I just got this email too. I knew it was SPAM but even if I didn't it only took one search on google to find this is a scam. I can't believe anyone would actually fall for this.

As a proper thanks to MSN and Yahoo for doing nothing to help stop this ridiculous scam. I say we pool all our winnings and buy Microsoft. Then we can stop this scam ourselves. And then, the best part... We can build a "real" operating system!

Like that? Me too!

most funny thing is we all are given the reference number and winning number fron last 3 years, this 07/2009 now, and yet they are not changing it, when we know that it is a spam

haha money matters..its stupid how can market competitors join hands together to distribute lottery to people..haha wow its too much for a joke n if they need shipping fee or any other charges then they should cut it from the lottery prize n gave the balance ..its easy..its good to c n read this kind of rare jokes....

Got such a mail... I won 1 million pounds!!! Knew it was a scam (as had earlier got such a msg by shell)but sent back a mail for the heck of it and as I was getting bored. Surprise! surprise! that I got a call from a "british diplomat" stating that he had reached India but was waiting for me to clear the customs charge of Rs 35000. The "diplomat" had nothing of a british accent while speaking and I told him so. I was told to have faith in God as he was a good christian!Now I am getting constant calls but ignoring them. What kind of fools do they take us to be!

Yup, got the same email. I emailed them asking what exactly I won and what the attachments are. (You never just win THAT much money!) Awaiting a reply, but not going to go through with it, seeing that I have not heard of even one person recieving money. Your call, but I suggest you DELETE and FORGET... I believe its a scam.
