There is one big giveaway to this being a scam. Right in the email it says something that is a damned oversight and tells you it is a scam. Can you tell me what it is?

Internet lottery from outside the u.s.a is illegal all us lottery winners must be paid by a us based company..  even if the check was to clear after 3 or 5 days wait after 10days it will come back bogus and the bank will demand there money back. that says you won and only need to deposit the check into you account..  If you noticed that they but the money amount in euros also just in case you lived outside the u.s.a

Cobra is completely  right report them to the attorney generals office flag as spam and then report it to your  email provider... The sooner the company and attorney generals office knows of it the sooner they can get it to the media and investigate it.. maybe you can save some family the problems that come with these people stealing

I hope you did not get attacked by opening the e-mail.

 

By all means go no further.

 

If I do not recognize something valid in the e-mail address it is flung into the trash can as spam.

Sorry Dean, I won that one last month. 

 

As soon as the Nigerian prince gets back to me I figure I will be rich enough to buy a ranch in Montana between Bruce Willis' place and Harrison Ford's place.  I might even be rich enough to get Callista Flockwhateverthefuckhername is to stop buy and serve me drinks in one of her Ally McBeal outfits.

i see the sending address vs the company, the monetary sign is the wrong one, many typos, the logos are just copy and pastes from screen shots especially the windows 8 logo, there is no printed name with title at company under signature, etc.

The authors of these scam emails make life easy for us as none of them can write English properly.

 

The latest one I have received suggests that, rather than being of exclusively English origins, I have

Japanese ancestry! :lol:
