Well, i receive this same type of message time after time, usually after coming from the islamic chat rooms. You know what? i usually authorize the sender to take all my winnings and give everything to charity.

To date, no one has thanked me that they have recieved even a nifty amount of "my supposed winnings".

It is spam spam and more spam! Do not give out your information to these emails unless you want to risk having your identity and/or money stolen.

thank you for your replies my brothers and sisters ...i know it's a scam email but my friend doesn't believe me...but now he will ..... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Its a SCAM..
Think about it.. If you won a Lottery... Anywhere in the WORLD..... Don't you think they would fly you out there so, they can have you on TV and whatever else...
Think about it.. Here in the US.. If anyone wins anything even near a million.. Its all over the newspapers and TV...

There problem going to try and steal your identity or after you fill out Payment Processing.. There going to say please send us (about) $5,000 for the taxes and processing fees...

So, I wouldn't do anything but, just ignore them.. Or write back and say.. Send me the money and I'll send you the info back once I received it..
They will never answer you back.. and I would try and call you Internet provider and tell them about it...

Hello!

I am from England.....let me tell you about the National Lottery...and why this is a scam...show this to your friend!

1) Its not called the National Lottery any more, its called the lotto. There is no such thing as the national lottery anymore

2) To participate in the lotto you need to buy a ticket. No ticket no win. There is even a campaign saying 'you have to be in it to win it'. Your friend could not possibly have won AT ALL!

3) There is a special pffice for winners. There is a verification process to prove you won the money. If you have a winning ticket they will quiz you about where you bought the ticket, and what time of day etc. They have all these details on the system. They will never contact a winner. The winner will ALWAYS contact them.

Hope this info helps :)
