Lottery Scams: Power.Ball Clearance Dept

Lottery Scam Email:
Power.Ball Clearance Dept
"
Mr.Griggs Andrew, Mrs. Joyce Ferdinard"

Now, according to "Mr. Griggs Andrew", the "Power Ball Lottery" is having a clearance giveaway! Yet, oddly, they use free Yahoo email accounts in Hong Kong. By now, it should be obvious that this is a scam.

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.
