They are ALL SCAMS. You CANNOT WIN a lottery or prize draw that you HAVE NOT ENTERED.Please don't post comments asking me if the scams you have received are real. I can't answer them all and you KNOW they are scams!How odd. ”Microsoft Department UK” write to me from Taiwan to tell me I’ve won £500k. It’s that email address again – working relentlessly on my behalf. Guess what? It’s a scam. There was no draw. The scammers don’t want to give you money – they want to take it from you in the form of advance fees. Just delete the email and don’t reply. If you’re fed up with spam invading your inbox, install Spam Bully. Works [Continue reading Last Notification] I must have the hardest working email address on the planet. Everyday it wins me at least one lottery or draw. Do you think I should give it some kind of award? Or maybe I should allow it to retire in peace to a computer on a sunny beach surrounded by lots of gorgeous girl email addresses? What’s it won now? €550k, that’s what. These scammers want all my details, including a copy of my “identity”. [Continue reading Dear Lucky Winner, Vision 20082008] Beware of this. You haven’t received a greeting – you’ve received a link to spyware. How do I know? 1) The title doesn’t have anything to identify the sender 2) If I point my mouse at the link in the email, this is the address that is displayed at the bottom left of my web browser or email program: http://202.129.37.69/~test/postcard.exe This is NOT the address of greetings.com. It is an executable [Continue reading Hey, you have a new Greeting !!!] I’m a millionnaire. A million Euros winging its way to me. That email address of mine really works hard, doesn’t it? I’ve quite lost count of all the lotteries and draws it’s won this year. Perhaps I should retire it before it starts to feel overworked. You’ve probably realised by now that it’s all a scam. There was no draw and you haven’t won anything. Just delete the email and don’t reply. CONTACT Congratulations [Continue reading ONCE PROMO 2008] Oh look – Father Christmas sent me a pressie yesterday. I’ve won 800k Euros – gift wrapped I hope. For some strange reason my “email address” has won a “postcode loterij”. I thought my email address floated around etherially in cyberspace. Now I’m told it’s gone and got itself a postcode. Perhaps it’s decided to settle down in its old age. Remind me to call round and see it – I’ll take it a housewarming [Continue reading Nationale Postcode Loterij] This was forwarded to me by a friend. She nearly fell for the scam as she was in discussion with Paypal about a transaction at the time. If you receive any emails from Paypal ALWAYS check the links, even if you are expecting a Paypal email. For safety, NEVER click on any link in an email that appears to come from Paypal. ALWAYS enter the address of Paypal directly into your browser. In this case, if you [Continue reading Important Paypal Alert] Yippee – it’s Christmas and I’ve won £600 grand. Or maybe I’ve just won a car. Who knows – clearly the scammer who wrote this email couldn’t decide. And if I have won a car, they’ve clearly been keeping it for a while. It’s new – they claim – but it’s a 2007 model!! I wonder how long this scam has been doing the rounds? It is a scam of course, so just delete it [Continue reading YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS HAS WON THE TOYOTA PROMOTION 2008] My access to my Abbey internet bank has been “temporarily disabled”. How sad. Just as well then that I don’t have an account with the Abbey. It is trued that some internet banks lock your account if you make a repeated error when trying to log in. If you do, they won’t send you an email – you will have to phone them. NEVER click on a link in a bank email, [Continue reading New Security Review] Apparently I’ve won £1m (British pounds) from Microsoft. Odd then that my “claims agent” has a South African phone number. I think that might be the first time I’ve seen a SA number. I keep saying I’ll produce a list of countries of origin of scammers. It’s a truly international activity – no country is immune to the scammers. Mr Zulu and Dr Louis don’t exist – at least not as employees of Microsoft. Microsoft don’t [Continue reading Microsoft Online Lottery Games] |
If your email client will allow you to see the message path you might be able to find out where the email was sent from. I don't know how reliable this is, but it's fun!
