its a big scam i get those same emails i also get ones from hbscs banks saying someone has died with a billion dollar account saying if i will say i am next of kin etc.. they will send me 3/4 the cash yeah right. first of all things thats to good to be true usually isn't true. how ever miracles from god do happen but it would be realisticly , not some uk lottery. if you know what i mean, i would mark the item as spam many viruses ar started like such. also if you start dishing them out personal informtaion so they can arrange send u this millions of $$ then think how easy would it be then for them to screw u over. email and internet is like rest the world full of crooks and scams, just a whole lot easier online. . delete it immeditaley report as spam.. change ur password. do all sorts securty reltaed stuff.

Answer 3

No one would ever send you something if you never were in the UK. I'm assuming you were not because I was not and get the same BS emails all the time.

There was one with Microsoft logos all over it. I sent it to Microsoft and told them, If Bill wants to send me a million, here's my address. It's been years and I never seen a check from him yet. It's a scam.

Answer 4

Thousands of people have received the same mail and it is a scam, believe me.
