do you know these clues to email fraud scams?

Question

I hav not been scammed, nor do I know anyone who has, but the amount of spam that is from these criminals, combined with TV reports says that people ARE, indeed, losing money because of greed, ignorance or both. Here are some very easy things to keep in mind:
1. If you did not enter, you cannot win, anything
2. If you are being contacted for legitimate prizes, they KNOW YOUR NAME already, you gave it when you entered
3. Businesses do nt have trouble cashing checks
5. ATM cards are not issued with the PIN given to you in an email
6. The ONLY money one would have to pay, as a result of winning, is the tax on the retail value. This is collected by the Government
7. ABSOLUTELY NO RANDOM EMAIL LOTTERY EXISTS!
8. BUSINESSES DO NOT ANONOMOUSLY HIRE FINANCIAL OFFICERS OR COLLECTION AGENTS
8. NO AFRICAN EMAIL THAT PROMISES YOU $$ IS LEGITIMATE, NO MATTER HOW OFFICIAL THEY TRY TO APPEAR
9. Official correspondence rarely, if ever, has mis-spelled words
more to follow and add your own

10. Official correspondence is NEVER ALL CAPITAL LETTERS!
11. too much info is requested. It does not matter your occupation to win anything, letters of eligibility will have a space o affirm that you are not an employee, or relative of the company or sponsors and that you affirm that you meet other requirements (age, legal residency)
12. asking you to join them in the commission of a crime (posing as a next of kin, or other type of legal representative.
13. asking you to keep it confidential. If you won, tell everyone you know about it! Legitimate contests count on it as a form of free (prizes are cheap compared to other forms of advertizing) advertizing, as you and your family will spread the word obout thier company
14. asking you t invest money for a terminally ill person is ALWAYS AN EMAIL SCAM
15. asking you to wire money via western union is always a scam tell them to deduct the shipping from your 'prize' money and see where that gets you
