Do you think that is real for fake and its asking for my info for some bad news?

 

Are you seriously wondering if this is legit?

Because if you are...please keep in mind if you ever win a million pounds, I'm quite sure you'd have a representative knocking at your door, not a poorly written email.

On a sidenote, I wonder how many people actually believe stuff like this, even in 2008?

 

I think the government should warn their people more of this sort of tricks... Because it must still work else spammers wouldn't send it around the world.

 

So I defiantly didn't win eh that sux coulda used the money

Part that got me was: won a prize money of One Million

For a 1 mill lottery thats just horrible grammar...

 

haha i get about 10 of these a week SPAMM

 

Gmail blocks them very nicely

 

wait wut? they're not real...

 

You guys are crazy. I am catching a redeye flight to Nigeria tonight because I not only won the $10 Million Lottery, it turns out that I am a Nigerian duke, with a massive estate and servants. They assured me that this is 100% legitimate. I will invite everyone over once I settle in.

 

definetly fake

 

I received it as non spam on gmail

Is their anyway to report it?

 

Doubt it'll do any good to report it. Just delete and move on.

 

so how do you explain the 1,000,000 that I got?
