Iwas contacted by George White at Natwest Bank PLC.U.K. saying I won 891,934 Pounds in the national lottery drawing but I have to send 550 Pounds to open a bank account to get my winnings transferred to the U.S. is this on the up and up or a scam ?
Deutch Sol Agency is there a company in london that represents the national lottery named camelot?
Yes it's a scam alrighty.
Sorry!
Reply:Ah, I see there has been another mistake in the email department.
Don't send them the money, contact me and I will only charge 拢500 for exactly the same service.
You don't get out much, do you?
Reply:I'd really try to meet this chap personally so i could bite off his nose
Reply:It is scam. Yahoo (insert any company name here, this answer works for all!) do not run an email lottery, if they did you could guarantee it would be advertised all over their home page. Check out these links and search answers to see how many people 'win' the exact same lottery every day

Do not click on any links, the page you will be taken to will look authentic but is not
Do not send them a 'courier fee' or any other money
Do not hand over any bank details or passwords
Do report spam
Do delete
Remember there is no such thing as a free lunch. You cannot win a lottery if you haven ot bought a ticket. Anyone can set up an email account with Yahoo, they can use any combination of letters they choose. I could be 'thequeenmother@yahoo.com' or 'disneyfreeticketsgenuine@yahoo.com' That doesn't mean that I am either of these and is fine as long as I don't try to use the address to mislead people. Don't be fooled by legitimate looking email addresses which end the same way as any other free account, don't be fooled by fictitious titles such as 'Dr' or 'Executive Director of Winner Claims'.
(I've answered this question so many times that I now keep this answer on my desktop and just copy and paste....that should give you a clue!)

Sorry to be the harbinger of bad news.
