I´ve received the same e-mail from the UK lottery. I won´t be sending any money at all because this seems to be too good to be true..

You just have to look at the email addresses to know this is a scam. The FBI do not use hotmail addresses, they have their own email system.
Never send anyone information just on the strength of an email, let alone money.

Mr.JHON ERIC your e-mail is not working.

Are you people complete ?

Of course it's a scam! You don't pay hefty sums of money to receive winnings!!!
There are spelling mistakes throughout the emails, the telephone numbers are mobiles, even the email addresses are "hotmail", "yahoo", "live" etc

You lot deserve to lose your money!!

i am telling you do something because i want my money back from these people cause internet lottory will stop and every one will get back there money let them send all the parcel now cause this will get ugly [protected]@live.co.uk

Not to be mean spirited, but honestly...are you approached in person and awarded the lucky person of the day award? Or expect it? Why would any one offering money awards, award it to those whom never inquired about it in the first place? Just the fact that they come up and claim that you were entered into a contest without your knowledge is enough to expose the serious taint on this proposal. Not to mention the questionable unassociated email addresses or that most of these mention an office in Africa. Plus the fact that the email text is usually on a .JPEG or other popular image format (meaning that the same image is sent to multiple "winners", all with the same winning number).

Always check your resources. If you are not tech savvy, search up the business and person's name and email addresses via search engine or ask around online.

Just to let you know I have been notified that ive won the same amount on the same ticket but mine is dated the 20th of September 2010, must be a very lucky number.
When is someone going to incorporate a screening system to eliminate these scammers surely with all the intelligence there is something can be done. [protected]@hotmail.co.uk

Its obviously a giant scam. Anyone who asks for money for you to get winnings for something you never entered is ripping you off. DO NOT open, download or view the content of these e mails. You are opening yourself to viruses etc. Just mark them as junk email and you should stop getting them. If you have paid money to these people I would advise you to contact the police imediately

Subject: Attn:- Mrs. ...,

I’m Mr. James Morgan, (Cuban citizen) I work with United Kingdom IMF, and I have been assigned by international monetary fund (IMF) official to deliver your safety box/fund to you in Indonesia VIA KUALA LUMPUR (MALAYSIA) due to good bilateral relationship between United Kingdom and Malaysia.
Below are part of your details given to me:-

NAME:………………………&he...⇄ MRS, ...(my name)
BENEFICIARY SECURITY CODE: …………………………...⇄
MOBILE NUMBER: …………………………...⇄
Actually, we received with great shock the ignoble misdemeanor of some unscrupulous elements among our trusted agents who posed as executives of this organization with a view to defrauding depositors of their hard-earned money. The petition came to International Monetary Fund (IMF) through United Kingdom monitoring Unit of British Embassy In Kuala Lumpur and we decided to look meticulously into the matter as to unravel the true position of things, ameliorate all the damages done, pacify the aggrieved, and bring the culprits to book so as to serve as deterrent to others in their cabal. This is the fourth time we are experiencing this anyway and it’s high time we take proactive action to annihilate it completely before the trust and confidence that our client have in us is totally eroded.
Obviously, every arrangement has been dully finalized in your favor as beneficiary and I have been assigned to deliver the fund to you through a DIPLOMATIC MEANS by IMF.
Therefore, the safety box/fund has been moved from IMF Vault for onward delivery to you under a special arrangement to avoid hijacking or stealing of the fund.
For this reason, you are advice to come personally to Malaysia in other to sign the release order, and some related document to enhance the release of the safety box/fund
Also, you are advice to scan a copy of your IDENTIFICATION (international passport, driver license or IC) and deposit certificate to me for more clarification; I will get back to you within 24 hours of receiving your details to let you know my flight schedule to Malaysia.
In other hand, I wish to bring to your acknowledgement that I have already made a bank contact with three banks in Malaysia that has correspondent bank in Indonesia immediately I received your details to ascertain easy deposition and onward transferring of the fund to your designated bank account without much protocol. And all these bank are working 24/7 including weekend. (Because they are all international Banks)
We can use city Bank, HSBC and Standard chartered bank for easy accessibility and deposition. Meanwhile, you will be required to fill up the international premium deposit form in other hand for you to open up a NON-RESIDENT DOMICILIARY ACCOUNT, which will enable the fund to reflect in your bank account within 3 working days STIPULATED by banking rules and regulation.
Your acknowledgement of this message is crucial as it forms the prelude to solution in bringing this transaction to desired logical conclusion.
Thanks
James Morgan.

THEN 2 DAYS LATER AFTER I REPLY READY TO FOLLOW HE SENT ME AN OTHER EMAIL AS FOLLOWS :

From: [protected]@swissmail.com

Subject: DELIVERY ARRANGEMENT

Thanks for your mail and co-operation; all arrangement has been made to get the fund deliver to you through International Monetary Fund (IMF) for logistic reason. And I myself is the assigned delivery official approved by IMF.
Therefore, I will be leave London for Malaysia on 12th of Feb. 2011 and arriving Kuala Lumpur Malaysia on the 13th of Feb.2011 through KLM ROYAL DUTCH AIRLINES.
Below is my flight Details:-
12/02/11----14:50 London (LHR) (Heathrow Airport) - 17:10 Amsterdam (Schiphol)
Aircraft type: Embraer 190
Transfer time: 3h50
21:00 Amsterdam (Schiphol) - 16:20 Singapore (Changi)
This flight arrives 1 day later.
Aircraft type: Boeing 777-200
Transfer time: 1h05
17:25 Singapore (Changi) - 18:25 Kuala Lumpur (International Airport (KLIA))
Aircraft type: Boeing 737-400
Be informed that it is important to let you know the reasons why the services of the IMF was implored in agreement that any breach of contract, International Monetary Fund (IMF) will be sued.
(1) All safety box/fund in custody of the IMF Delivery Agents are Tagged CONFIDENTIAL DIPLOMATIC INSTRUMENTS.
(2) With the Diplomatic Immunity power, fund is safe, convenient and easy for delivery.
(3) The Immunity power of the IMF covers the box/fund for non-inspection by any of the law enforcement agencies such as Immigration, Customs police at anywhere.
Moreover, I want to reiterate here again loud and clear that your fund is not in the custody of any individual. The IMF has your Fund in their possession and will be available to you as soon as all anomalies relating to the money is corrected and IMF conditions are satisfied. You don’t need to send money to anybody, all the document of the fund is correct and intact. It is very bad for anyone to take advantage of known about your detail and be using gimmick to collect money from you in other to enrich themselves, sending money to these people is just like thrown money into the sea as you will NEVER get any result from that.
However, for security and convenient reasons, you have to stay within the IMF VAULT location so that it will be easy and convenient for the safety box/fund to be shifted by the security personnel for your verification after clearance before proceeding to any bank of your choices. And also, I have contacted IMF official in Kuala Lumpur regard to good and secure hotel that very close to there are office, below are the details.
ONEWORLD HOTEL.
1ST AVENUE, BANDAR UTAMA CITY CENTRES. (VERY CLOSE TO TV3 OR ONE UTAMA MALL)
TEL…. +[protected]. (Kindly make your booking in the hotel with immediate effect)
Therefore, you are required to come with CLEARANCE AND RELEASE ORDER CHARGES of GBP5, 300 Pounds (the payment can be done with any acceptable currency equivalent amount). These charges have to be paid before the official can sign the necessary document to enhance the release of the safety box/fund.
Hence, we need to work assiduously as a team. Business will always succeed when you have heaven-sent chances, coupled with natural advantages and the unity of men. I will advise you to stop communicating with anybody as far as this delivery is concern. We shall meet in Kuala Lumpur to discuss further.
I shall look forward to read from you in earnest.

Thank.
James Morgan.

Note:- I call the three bank i mention in my previous mail, there is no problem at all, i will lead you to one of this bank after the delivery of the Fund. you don't need to open another account again, but if you wish, you can do so.
I hope to meet you in you One World Hotel by Monday (14th of Feb. 2011, for easy communication, i will buy Malaysia sim card as soon as i arrive KLIA. see you next week
