my frend roungly mailed personal infos 2 a scum online lotto who told she is a winner.how can it harm her?

Question

she mailed her address, ph. no., age. she is a student & have no bank account. we have information that the online lotto loots people of their money. plz help

Answer 1

If she is this gullible they will get her eventually. The information she sent them can be used to steal her identity, so having a bank account cleaned out is only part of the problem. If she ever gets any more requests for additional information I hope she is aware enough now to do what I do: send them false made-up stuff to give them something with which to waste their time.

Answer 2

She will be scammed out of any money she might have. Tell her to ignore all further e-mails from the lotto people. Unless you have actually bought a lotto ticket from a reputable source, ignore all e-mails informing you that you have won a lotto prize. God Bless!

Answer 3

She is pretty stupid since there is no free lunches especially when it involves money. They will use her name and address to apply for credit cards, but request to pick them up in person. She needs to watch very carefully for the next several months for strange bills and to report these immediately to the bank(s).

Answer 4

That's not a problem. leave and remove the mail.
and submit this mail as spam to you mail provider.

Again, you no need to worry about.
I recieved atleast 2 mails every month.

That's just a spam. tha's all.

Answer 5

as long as she didnt post bank account information she should be safe.

Answer 6

Without a bank account or SSI number there isn't much they can do.

Answer 7

check yourself them email address properly and open them website if its website exist u can see. if u doubt, forward yr message to yahoo, note it e-mail : [e-mail]

Answer 8

Hide her piggy bank.

Answer 9

Ha! Ha! 2 Points!!..
