Yippeee!! I'm RICH!! I've won the Internet Lottery! I'm due a LOTTO cash! I can't believe my luck. Not only, according to the emails, have I won but I have won EIGHT times in the last two days ... on EIGHT DIFFERENT lotteries around the world! Average prize money is about $2,000,000. Times that by eight, and I'm going to be worth, er?, well Zillions!
And, guess what, on top of that, loads of legal people in far off lands have picked ME out of all the quintillions of people on the planet, to inherit more millions because some poor saps who died in plane crashes had no relatives, and the money has got to go to someone. Ain't that a fantastic coincidence?!
How lucky can one guy get??!!
Do you think there might be a catch? I've already sent all these kind people all my bank details so they can transfer the money. Should I have sent them my passport, driving licence, birth certificate, and passwords etc? Will I get them all back do you think? You hear about things getting lost in the post.
Why only the other day two CDs went missing ... !
You don't think I'm being a bit naive, do you? The emails all came from genuine looking email addresses like fred.mikrosoft@yahoo.co.uk
Anyway must rush, now I've got all this dosh coming I'm off to order some of this V-1-a-6-r-a they keep telling me about. No idea what it is but it must be good, the number of emails I get about it!

What I'd like to deliver right back to the 'spammers' of 'strokes of lotto luck'....
There's a site online to inform and to send the preposterous mail you receive. Each institution has their own; have sent info to the actual firms, banks, etc.
