Yeah I think pretty much everyone got it. Though I wonder if anyone ever did something legitimate like that would anyone ever respond to it or are we all so callous from these fakes?
I got the same email along with that colon cleansing one lol!
So does this mean you will be quitting your day job now?
Oh, by the way, you probably know this but Internet Explorer is not kind to your blog at all! It’s not kind to mine either.

More than a noun, it’s a lifestyle.
Ah, I didn’t get one, your sooo lucky
Coolio – Quitting? Past tense? Ha! Did that right when I saw the header for the email proclaiming me the winner
And yeah I know about IE. Premade template haven’t had time (or the desire) to dig into the html and figure out the issues yet.
Bob – That’s ok Bob we won’t hold it against you.
I get loads from jokers like these – Do they expect me to be fooled by a yahoo email address for the UK’s main gambling/lottery companies – get real.
Ross – No kidding huh.
I also receive the same email, can you belive how am my email adds can win a milliom without entering any contes or competition
Hey is this for real or is it one of those
get rich hoaxes??
Muhammed – Hey thanks for stopping by! Yeah it’s scary how many you get. I get probably 3 or 4 a week.
Vic – It’s a scam. As the saying goes “If it looks too good to be true, it probably is”
I also received emails like this… “my next of kin”. He said that I have to hurry because he’s about about to die. I tried following his instructions to contact the lawyer. It’s so annoying that the lawyer always calls me through my cellphone for the payment of 300 dollars. I tried searching his name through search engines and I saw a lot of results that states spam or scam texts. Whew! I almost spare my money for nothing.

Jasper – You’re joking right? You didn’t actually believe you might have a long lost rich relative did you? Seriously…
Nice!
Yeah I have been chosen to win several “National” lotteries that I have never entered as well!
Apparently I am also the recipent of several “long lost relatives” vast fortunes.
What is scary is that people do not see through these fakes. They are so “hungry” for money they are blind to the scam, of course many are just so honest that they cannot imagine someone trying to steal from them.
There really needs to be a system to catch these people!
