My roommate got caught in the same scam. The girl told him she loved him and sh*t like that. Saying that she needed him to cash the money order, and send the money to her sister. He got screwed out of 120,000 bucks. He went to the police but there was nothing they could do. That was over two years ago and he's still paying back the bank. Really sad that people are still falling for the scam now...even sadder that the people are keeping up the scam. At least you're smart and know it was a scam. What the police told my ex roommate was that there's no way to tell who the person is, so the most you can do is report it to yahoo. They'll pull the account, but they'll only create another one and be back out doing it in ten mins.

It's a scam to get you to send a huge amount of money to have the winnings shipped to you and they collect your personal info and use it. My mom had that show up in her e-mail. It's a scam sorry.

That site didn't work for me... are you sure it isn't a scam?\n\nOkay, a second try and now it seems to work.  A quick check of WHOIS shows the site registed to Boling Jiang in Overland Park, Kansas. Not sure what his business model is, but it sure seems like a very good offer. But you know what they say about things that seem too good to be true...\n\nBack again with another edit... I noticed several typos on their home page, and slow response in clicking on links. The forum wouldn't open and their FAQ link returned an error.  The bottom paragraph says, "So What's the Catch? \nThere is none! You only have to follow our guidelines and we place a small collapsible text banner on your page. That's right, only quality web hosting and reliable servers! Sign up today for some speedy hosting!"\n\nA search of Google only showed a few hits for sites on their servers (scsc.3000mb.com was one) but it didn't show a text banner as far as I could tell.

Occasionally, if there is a big jackpot. Some lucky person won $22 million Thursday night, but it wasn't me. No. I lose, but not a lot.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. It sounds like a scam to me. If you had really won money from a legitimate entity, they would contact you by the phone or more likely through certified mail. DO NOT reply to this email!

Heres a littlerun down on lottery scams\nLotterys work like this:\n1)10,000 people pay 1 dollar/euro/pound/yen....etc\nThe lottery company now has 10,000\n\n2) the lottery company holds a draw and gives out 7,000 in winnings (and keeps the profit 3,000)\n\nScams work like this:\n-1)nobody pays money (there is no money to win)\n\n0)a scammer sends out 10,000 spam emails to tell people they have won a lottery they havn't entered.(they pretend they work for real lottery websites)\n\n2)The Scammer asks for your Personal details (be prepared! your inbox is going to be full of emails asking for you personally...and dont get me started on what they are gonna do with your Bank details!)\n\n3)The scammer tells you that you have to pay fees before you can accept the "winnings" (and NO,you cant pay out of the winnings! they dont exist!....silly maga)\n\n4)The scammer manages to con 3 people out of 1000 and gives all his profits to a charity for orphaned goats (he dosn't really...he keeps it ;) )\n\n5)Your inbox gets more mails than help@microsoft.com\nEverything from "You have won anotther sooperdooperlottry" to "CHAN U B A NEXT OF KIN" to "Please join our company,cash our checks,send us the money until your bank realises you are laundering money for us?)\n\nThe moral of the story is...If it sounds too good to be true... It probably is\n\nSome times they will help you pay the fees.\nThey will give you a check (Wooooo hoooooo!!!)\nThe checks will be fake....very good fakes.\nYou can hand them to a 25yr old bank teller and they wont know the difference.\nThe checks go in your account.\nYour bank "HONOURS" the checks\nYou send the money to the scammer in Nigeria\nThe bank sends the check back to the issuing bank (can take up to 6 months)\nThe Issueing bank refuses to "CLEAR" the check.\nYour bank says"Hey...you put in a fake check ....wheres the money?"\nYou say" I sent it to [insert scammers name here] by western union money transfer(untracable) to that lovely man/woman/both in Nigeria"\nThe bank says"??? you robbed your own bank???"\nYou plead Ignorance..."Im innocent" etc\nThey say "But YOU put the check in our bank...." and you do jail time for bank fraud\n\nWhat is the difference between a fake cashiers check and a fake personal check?????\nA fake cashiers check looks like a real cashiers check whereas a fake personal check looks like a fake personal check.\nWhat have they got in common?\nThey are both just as easy to fake\n\n"419" scammers....dont ya love 'em\nwww.fraudwatchers.org

I couldn't find anything on it.\n\nIf you seriously won a large sum of money, your notification wouldn't come by e-mail.

Yes, but you can dispute it through ICAAN\n\nYou can also use some variant names for yourself, and one for the other guy (such as www.mycompetitorsucks.com)

Let me guess, now your buddy pops up with a spam ad for exactly the list you are looking for.\n\nAm I close?\n\nDo I win a prize?\n\nMaybe someone can post a referral link to that cashcrack pyramid scheme website as well.

No. If you reply they will ask you for a processing fee, or government tax, or some such. If you send them money you will never see your "Winnings".\n\nMy e-mail address has been public for 7 years. I'm on lots of spam lists. I get 2 - 4 "You have won" e-mail messages a day.
