They say that I won 800.000 an they want my contact info to give my prize. They want me to send my contact info to fedex_courier_uk@live.com

yeah, emails telling us that we win some hundred dollars is the old fashioned trick to spam. i just wonder why they still use the trick. if it happens to me, i will just ignore it and delete the email.

I respond to those mails. All those are scams, they will buy a database of mail addresses and they will send same mail to all the adresses in there database. If any one responses to that mail they will ask some info and to pay some amount to get the prize about. this is a business for them they get money if any one responses to them. so get into those scams.
