There are quite a lot of these scams going around at present. They come from a lot of different sources. I have received about a dozen different emails with similar content. BEWARE - DO NOT PROVIDE ANY PERSONAL DETAILS UNLESS YOU WISH TO LOSE YOUR IDENTITY AND MONEY.

Put Nigerian 419 Scam into search for questions and educate yourself.
If you won a Nigerian lottery why are YOU sending 2000 Pounds to them?? let me guess you have to pay the fees!!!
Sucker.
How did you win a lottery when you never bought a ticket))
Let me guess YOU were PICKED!!
Sucker
If you are in contact with this Nigerian person and have given any of your credit card or bank details, contact your credit card company and bank as soon as possible before they wipe out your account leaving you with nothing.
And remember this SCAM works because people are greedy for FREE Money, there is no such thing.
