Re: i am receiving mail from uk that i have won the lottery these email are true pl let me know

I have been getting above types of e-mails on an average of 3 per week. Even yester-day I got one from one bank employ promiissing to share millions with me if I help him to transfer the money from some dead account expressing that he has absolutefaithinme etc.. These are absolute frauds.The anount is millions. Some time it is even from coco cola, microsoft etc. For a fun if you respond, the concerned will speak to you convincingly telling you that they have sent the ambassoder to you who will be contacting you and someone will contact you to fix the place where the parcel tol be delivered, of cource demanding the postage and insurance charges. These are all frauds. Efforts to report to Interpol or theEmbassy of the concerned states or the genuine company like coco cola etc., will not be of any use. Unless you wish to have the first hand experence of this fraud, please ignore it. Under any circumstance please donot sent a penny in advance. Still if you insistit it as genuine please proceed without senting a penny in advance. You may promiss hem to pay all charges after you receive the lotery of millions or you may tell them to deduct all charges with interest from the gross amount. It is a fun to experience someone trying a fraud assuming you tobe aninnoscent man.
