I received email from Australian Lotto Lottery that my email had been selected as lucky winner of prize $200000 without purchasing ticket. Now they are demanding through Equity Bank Of Nigeria to send $1000 as bank charges so that my winning money could be transfered to my bank account. What should I do now?

Did you buy a lottery ticket?
If not this is a scam. I get about five per day.
Just delete it and ignore it..

Again, this is a scam. No one will contact you, especially from another country, to tell you that you won the Lottery. Nigeria is one of the biggest fraud countries when dealing with lottery scams. Don't send any money. Just remember, you NEVER have to pay money to win money, unless buying a lottery ticket.

You won a lottery you never even entered?
Please give me your email address as I think you just won a huge amount of money in the Kazakhstan Lottery I just set up. All that is required is for you to send me $2,000 release money for your millions to be transferred!

Its a scam; don't do it. They will take your money and will leave you high and dry with bogus checks or money orders and most likely you won't get your money back.
