European lotteries... never anything new

When did we ever see anything interesting with the lottery scams?
Not even once even the email coming from the domain they claim to represent. Why would a Mrs Gloriakok from an Italian free email address (and with its free default ads for alice messenger) contact you to tell you that you wont and should contact a Dr. Krugar which also isn't using his correct email address?
+31 countrycode resolves to Netherlands, and if anyone WAS contacting you from the Netherlands lottery office, their email address would end @lotto.nl. (Never mind that they wouldn't know you bought a ticket... or did you?)

Text pieces in bold and italics added to highlight the best pieces.

So they have selected YOU based on a spambot finding 250,000 email addresses from the web, for he sole purpose of donating BIG AMOUNT OF MONEY (why does it always have to be spelled in capitals?)

Also the contact person you should contact is always with a free email provider, not once from anything like lottery.gov.uk ..

So you would need to be over 18, in UK, and yet "Staff of all Companies in the UK are not to partake in this Email Promotional Lottery"..

Dear Email User? Wow, is that me?

This is as bad and without imagination as these yahoo microsoft msn lotteries out there.

Yahoo.co.uk email address used for some big lottery in Netherlands? As likely as any bank manager anywhere on this planet sending you any email from yahoo or hotmail.

My favorite part in this one is though "De Lotto online
cyber lotto draws was conducted from an exclusive list of 25,000,000 e-
mail addresses of individuals and corporate institutions,picked by an
advanced automated random computer search from the internet.". So what they are effectively saying is that this big lottery used an email harvesting bot to get the addresses ...
I think what they should have said is that they sent this same email to these 25,000,000 email addresses.

500,000 Euros with LSLUK/4034/8161/04 winning code from Holland

And back after some downtime - been too absorbed in the real life work.

Sure, a Five Hundred Thousand Euros is alumpofmoney.
How about they even once would forge their email addresses to be something that actually has even remotely something to do with any lottery?
Why is this particular scammer using virgilio.it if he is still physically located in Netherlands?

The reason why all these lottery notifications always come from Holland

iDeceive has a link that explains why so many of the lottery winning noifications you get in your email are coming from Netherland.

Dutch police arrest 111 West Africans in 419 clampdown

Dutch police have arrested 111 suspected 419 scammers. The arrests on Saturday follow the end of a seven-month investigation - dubbed Operation Apollo, AFP reports.

Eight of those detained were carrying false papers. Many others among the group of West African (mainly Nigerian) suspects are reckoned to have entered the Netherlands illegally or to have overstayed their permitted stay.

The alleged scammers are suspected of running a series of lottery-based (AKA 419-lite) scams. Prospective victims of these frauds are first informed by email that they have won fictitious lottery prizes. Victims are then tricked into handing over money-up front to cover processing fees or other fictitious expenses. The promised windfalls never materialise and dupes are left nursing their losses.
Investigators in the Netherlands estimate that 2,000 internet con-men are active in the country.

This is the least original lottery scam that I have seen in a long time.
UK lottery, with hotmail multiple addresses, where the phone number is to a UK mobile phone and not any landline, the email address that has nothing to do with the name of the person that 'sent' this email, ...
and why is it that they have your email address magically but they just don't bother to magically have also your phone number?

If it was from UNITED KINGDOM NATIONAL LOTTERY, don't you think that it would be YOUR responsibility to find out you have won something, secondly that they would use the official email address and not their hotmail .. and that they might know your name? These are getting kind of repetitive...

One million euros from a handbag lottery ...

Great spelling on this one.
Ad if I would end up winning one million, wouldn't it be MY responsibility to find it out?
Do people really believe in that they have been added by someone to some random lottery where they won million(s)?
And why would any such instance rely on "E-mail" to inform the winners, giving even the winning notification that way? Sure they must have also address and phone details in record then.
Plus I have not seen even one where the URL or the email sending domain would have anything to do with anything else but hotmail, yahoo, lycos, walla, or any other free email provider.
This "Spainsh" winning notification is no different.

I guess I should write a book about how to write GOOD scams that anyone would actually even remotely believe, get that on Amazon, and then send a reply to these unoriginal ones telling how much they could learn and how they could tenfold their income with some training in how to feed people bs ...

125 million UK pounds you just won, and the UK National Lottery doesn't even provide email addresses to their workers?!

Another hilarious type of spam is all these lotteries.

Take this one for example:

So, looking back at this miraculous writing, I would be really amazed if he ever catches any fish with it.

First, The British National Lottery would not notify people by phone.

Second, this is not Attention to: anyone mentioned

Third, email date is in January, whereas the spam winning notification was sent in April.

Fourth, why on earth would anyone working for The British National Lottery use their hotmail or yahoo to communicate to you?

Fifth, the The British National Lottery could not possibly know if you ever had a winning ticket as the time of the purchase of a lottery ticket they have no clue about who bought a ticket with an XXYZZ number on it.

I have left the email address The British National Lottery used to email me to notify about winning these millions of pounds, so in case anyone ever in teh wild Internet feels they want a few million pounds of cash or a few hours of entertainment, please email this Mr Lucky Daran working for The British National Lottery and whose email is of some poor Humphery MacKay of yahoo. The a href / mailto in HTML code has been added for your convenience.

The British National Lottery should really pay better their employees, or at least provide them with a free email address.

I just wanted to tell you that
* If you live in a concentration camp with a T1 speed Internet access, where can I sign up to get to live there?
* I have zero interest in your viagra, cialis, diamond business, buying some random actions some spammer tolds me to, or sending money to anyone that approaches me over email
* That you really irritate me. The fact that you repeatedly keep spamming me irritates me that much that I want you to get if not unable to reproduce and keep your idiot genes in the gene pool, at least get that poor that you will never ever have an access to a computer so that you could spam me any more, or that you would have a Windows 3.1 with Outlook Express, and getting so millions of spams to the email addresses you have ever used to spam me. I rely on the spam harvesters in this to collect your email addresses, and send you adverts for more viagra, cialis, ephedra, diet pills, anything that makes you lose weight, lose money, get more inches in your p*nis, and at least as many proposals of these Nigerian Banks with a hotmail address, these State Owned lotteries with yahoo or other free email address, and to get also all the Blonde, Educated Russian Or Other Eastern European Ladies Who Want You To Marry For Money. I ALSO HOPE THAT PEOPLE WILL USE THE CAPS LOCK AS WELL AS YOU HAVE USED IT FOR ALL THESE YEARS. I HOPE YOUR DAUGHTER WILL HAVE PREMARITAL SEX WITH A PERSON OF THE RACE AND SEX YOU DO NOT APPROVE. I HOPE YOU WILL GET NIGHTMARES OF SPAM, AND ALL THAT YOU WILL BE EATING FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, IS CANNED SPAM.
* AND, AS THE LAST POINT, THAT I REALLY REALLY HATE THE ABUSIVE USE OF CAPS LOCK, EVEN IF IT IS USED IN YOUR WHATEVER REASONS.
* I very kindly ask you to leave me the f*** alone, and select some other people in the mailto: list above in this webpage to entertain you. Imagine if all you Nigerians are so rich, just unite and you could buy Saudi Arabia and a few states of USA if all your monetary investments were united.
* That if you really have millions of dollars and are still stupid enough to live in a concentration camp, I hope you die. Painfully.
