Loteria Primitiva
Ripoff - fake Spanish lottery win

This is a very convincing fraud. It comes from:

LOTERIA PRIMITIVA. [mailto: [email protected]]

And asks first that you contact a claims agent:
MR. Yesta Monzillo.
Super standard company
tel: 34- 636541466.
Fax: 34-675421106.
EMAIL: [email protected]

When you do, an email comes back asking for bank and next of kin details. Once you reply, it replies again, asking for 500 euros as stamp duty fee, to be paid by Western Union transfer to:
FIRST NAME: BARNES
LAST NAME: KAYCE
DESTINATION: MADRID SPAIN

Why this cannot then lead to an arrest by the Spanish police when Kayce Barnes collects the money is puzzling...
