My friend got a mail saying that she has won 1 million euro on an online yearly sweeptake by POSTCODE LOTERIJ NL. It says that participants were selected from a random computing ballot system and is sponsored by postcdeloterij-nl and government parastatals, drawn from major cities in Europe. They are also asking for an ID proof and to open an account with with Regio Bank to process the transfer of prize money. Is this something REAL or SCAM or just a JOKE. Do anybody have any idea about it....... Plz help!!!

The help you seek is very simple ignore it
These people are making millions from the stupid Americans, and they are laughing all the way to the bank.

It's all a bunch of crap. There is also something going around about winning a Yahoo lottery. Its a scam. If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. And that is the case here.

do NOT give out any personal information including:Social Security number, credit card numbers, even your phone and address because they could send you a bunch of **** in the mail and call all the time.
