Oh I win millions of dollars everyday. I mean I get such emails everyday. Just delete them. I really don't understand how the spammers get hold of email addresses and spend so much time writing a long email that does not seem convincing at all. Don't give them any information about you.

Oh yes, they are making me richer than Rothschilds. I have been getting those emails for about 9 years now. I don't think they can ever be real. The tone of their writing is too weak. They show their true color once they start asking for full name, address and so on.

These are just phishing mails and do not respond to them.. they just do that to get your email address and your home address.
They then sell this database of email address and home address.
So never ever reply back to such emails.

Dear friend,
When you ask for the won amount, they may ask of processing cash for sending the money. It is fruad email. They start to use their tricky way of getting cash from those who respond to it. This same was won by me also. They asked me for the processing fee, I requested them to deduct it from the won amount, no furhter reply was seen. No normal person would be fool enough to give such a large amount like that...even a millionair.

One good advise I got regarding these types of mails is that if I didn't join anything, it's highly doubtful that I won. I know sometimes we get really curious about these emails that say we won, but we should try to resist the temptation to open the mail or even give the information they ask.

First off the CocaCola company would never pay a prize that big. Not even in the US would you ever see that company pay anyone that amount. Secondly the amount is the weirdest amount i have ever seen for winnings. And lastly If you didn't enter a contest your not likely to win a contest. There had never been a contest that a company picks a random email out of nowhere and pay them a outrageous amount of cash in any currency. Any time you get an email like that block the sender. When you get emails like this and they send any attachments DO NOT OPEN them.
There are some evil people out there that will try anything in their power to convince you that if you send them money that you will get a ungodly amount of winnings, inheritance or random cash from some source.
Best to just block and delete the emails for good.

I have got a lot of such emails from different persons under different popular brand name. Sometime it says "you have won 700000GBP in nokia anniversary award" or sometime it says "you have won $1 mil from yahoo draw" and lots of lots like this.
Nokia itself has clarified that they do not run such drawing. You can find that by searching through the internet.
I think it is also the same case of fraud e-mail.
And one thing, after you provide your address details they will ask you for an amount like $500 as processing fees of your transaction. They will say you will receive your money after you deposit that amount.
So beware, do not fall in such traps. Good luck.

I have never adviced to sent them the money. I know it is a fraud case. Always in the end of the email it is said that the mail may not been sent by the person it looks like.
Money is not so cheap that anyone will give someone such huge amount of money without any effort.

Don't believe it, my friend. Because if you analyze thoroughly about the email they are all flaws and not real. How can you win since your not betting any games or how can anyone to send money by chance?
These are all email scam operated by nigerian syndicate who scheme people around the world using the internet

Hi Ganesh: It's good that you haven't done anything. Of course if it's too good to be truth it can't be truth. I have not only received one but tons of these junk emails that just want my personal information. You should be careful when receiving emails from people you don't know promising this kind of things.

The purpose of the email is to ask for your money after a long process. At the beginning he said that he would send the money to you and he would issue a fake certificate that says that you are the one who has the right to recieve the fund. He might say to you that the money will be sent to you in 72 hours if you could give him some amount of money that will be used to deal with the money. Any way, he will not send you the money. So be careful.

I have recived many such through sms asking for the details. I just delete it although in the corner of my mind i feel may be in reality i am discarding a fortune. But it is just scam and anything can happen after they get our details. Hope you did not furnish any such details in response to the e-mail. Happy mylotting.

Personally I wouldn't touch it as its probably a scam, especially if they are asking for personal details including bank account information. If you have genuinely won why don't they send you a cheque?
