Hi
Listen to this.I just read a mail stating I won.From Donkey Mails.I was sooo happy.Quickly i opened the mail and completed out my details section.But alas they say that as i am not a prenium member of their system i cannot avail of the prize money.
Now thats cheating because to become a member i have to shell out $8.I am not going to give out any money.Has anyone got such news??It is scam??I for sure think so

hi cool.
that is indeed a heartbreaker. imagine receiving an email telling that you won and then finding out that its a scam. don't worry so much about it.at least you didn't shell out the $8 they were asking you. some people cxna be such a pain when it comes to money. i'm sure you're going to earn the $400 in your gtp sites.
cheers!!!

I am a donkey mail member over last 2 years,but still I earned only 3USD, they are always send email for 0.25cent = 0.0025USD for one email..
rarely I get 0.05 cents Emails
So logically think how can they give 400USD =40000cents
when we open their link..
Actually this emails are come from some scam people..
So Be aware always before open this kind of links....

OMG, I'm so sorry you got sucked into this scam! This has been going around for quite awhile now, I got that e-mail a few months ago and luckily I read about it here before I had a chance to do anything with it and I just got another one a day or so ago. Do NOT pay them anything! DonkeyMails themselves sent out an e-mail the last time telling its members this is a scam but they probably aren't aware it's happening again yet.

Yes this is how they get you to join and pay them some money, to my mind if you win money you win it, whether you are a member or not. You should not have to pay anything if you have won a prize.

Thanks your advice. I received this e-mail in the morning...It requires me to open a premium account and force me to pay $8 registration fee.
But I finally discover that it's a scam..Thank you very much because this amount of money can be saved.
Instead, I used $8 to buy a big Australian Flag (150cm x 75 cm) via ebay :D YEAH!!!

I read a discussion about this scam a few minutes ago. Good thing you guys shared this. This would really help out the future potential victims. This is really sad. I hate it when people fool others for money. I hate it.

I also received one stating that on my email today. Since I knew that donkeymail is a scam, because they suddenly deleted my account, without notice and when I ask them about it, they told me that my username and password is not in their database. So when I received it, I was curious and thought maybe they return my account, alas when I open the link, it says that the page cannot be displayed. Now I truly believed that it wasn't true, that donkeymail is a scam.
