        Attension customer;

        In subject to your mail i want to inform you that we are going to schedule your delivery for Monday which is from today so you are inform to make arrangement of that amount for the clearing charges of your parcel by the time the diplomatic agent arrive your country,

        So you take note on this and try to raise that amount by Monday morning because our representative diplomat will arrrive and after clearing the custom payment at the international airport upon his arrival, you have to pay 25,000INR and your winning cheque charges can not be deducted from your winning prize,this because your prize has being protected by a hardcover insurance policy, which makes it impossible to deduct any amount from the money before it has been remitted to you. This means that the above charges cannot be deducted from the prize and must be provided by you.

        Note: that if you don't make payment for the delivery of your winning funds am sorry your winning will be donated to the charity organisation
        He will also be helping you in clearing this amount in your bank account for your personnal safe keeping by the time he arrive your home,so you are advice to follow his instructions cause he has been in this diplomatic mission for 10years so he has enough experience concerned to this. and get back to me withing the next 24 ours in reply to this mail and you are also required to send your recent passport photograph to this office .

        Thanks for using the WorldNet Express .Your satisfaction is our priority and we look foraward to providing you the best of our quality service.Do have a wonderful day.

                                      Lottery fraud scam mail landed in my inbox from the following address.

                                      In the First mail asked for some general info. In the second mail it says within 48 hours some UK diplomat (with ID proof attached) will arrive at the nearest International airport and his bag containing the prize (may be 100,00,0000,00 british pounds) cash will be coming and I have to make arrangement for the customs clearance using the resources available within my capacity. I donot understand why the Microsoft Hyderabad office cannot take care of such huge amount of money or the diplomat. Why at all a diplomat, why not their own microsoft Hyderabad wll do the job?
