Racer's Lounge - Favorite Email Scams & Junk Email

One day I was informed I won the UK Lottery.
When I responded as to how to proceed with my newfound winnings, I was sent a sad and plain looking form asking me for all of my personal info.
Which of course I didn't do.
Now I receive notice's of lottery winnings everyday and I'm a billionaire now.
:jest:

Not to mention all the sad nigerian scam stuff 2-3 times a day.

Post your favorite scams and junk email.

Dear Friend,

I am Barrister Mike Okechukwu, the Personal Attorney to a
Foreign Contractor who worked with
a Multinational Oil Firm in Nigeria. On the 21st of
April 2001, my client, his wife And
their three children were involved in a car accident
along Sagbama Express Road. All occupants of the
vehicle unfortunately lost there lives. Since then I
have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate
any of my clients extended relatives, this has also
proved unsuccessful.After these several unsuccessful
attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the
Internet, to locate any member of his family but of no
avail, hence I contacted you.

I have contacted you to assist me in repartrating the
money left behind by my client before they get
confisicated or declared unserviceable by the Bank
where this huge deposits were lodged. Particularly,
the Bank where the deceased had an account valued at
about US$12 million dollars has issued me a
notice to provide the next of kin or have the account
confisicated within the next twenthy official working
days. since I have been unsuccesfull in locating the
the relatives for over 4 years now I seek your consent
to present you as the next of kin to the deceased so
that the proceeds of this account valued at $12
million dollars can be paid to you and then you and I
can share this money. 70% to me and 25% to you,while
5% should be for expenses or tax as your government
may require,I have all necessary legal documents that can
be used to back up any claim we may make.All I require
is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal
through. I guarantee that this will be executed under
a legitimate arrangement that will protect you from
any breach of the law. Please get in touch with me via
email as soon as you get this mail to enable us discuss on
the modalities and process for success of this
transaction.

I also request for your private telephone number, fax
number for easy and more confidential communication.
I await your kind response, Goodday and God bless.
Regards,

Barrister Mike Okechukwu,
Principal Partner,
