My email address won £753,437?

My email address won £753,437





Gee I never knew I entered a lottery. I never knew my email address decided to enter a lottery. Funny how that "free" yahoo return email address


shows up again. Funny how these crooks always use free AOL, hotmail, or yahoo email addresses. Wouldn't it be cool if we could take all the money these Nigerian 419 scam artists steal from fools that fall for this crap and force feed it to them.








Here's the email (scam)

One of my past co-workers actaully took the offer up... %26gt;.%26gt;. I saw the check and everything, they sent them a second one after words telling them to cash it after they cashed the first one.





Instead they turned it into the police with the e-mails.





Rather funny if you ask me. ;)

Reply:Yes, I know, but in future learn to recognise them and don't open them. Just delete them unopened, or you will start a flood of them from all sorts of strange places. I found out the hard way too. Don't try to bounce them back. It usually doesn't work, and if it does, it only confirms that your address is "live".
Reply:I just got the same one like 5 minutes ago
Reply:SPAM!!!! ignore it. delete it.
Reply:that´s just spam if you receive another delete it sometimes it has a virus like a troyan horse
