The scam name "Promise Green" reappears in this scam email. It's a pity
"Promise" doesn't know how to use a spell-checker; her/his scams would be
slightly more believable! Still this scam is primarily sent to victims outside
of the UK, as they claim you can com eto their offices in the UK to collect your
"winnings". Excuse us, just WHERE in the UK? Notice they give no
address, only a phone number (most likely a disposable cell phone) and a free,
anonymous Yahoo email account.
Notice the gibberish writing,
excessive use of CAPITAL letters, etc. Note the other clues to an obvious fraud that we
have highlighted in the
letter; keep confidential, selected by a random computer lottery of email
addresses, use of free hotmail/yahoo email accounts, etc.
