I received and e-mail titled winning re-notification. Reading the e-mail it stated that microsoft & aol set out & successfully organized Sweepstakes marking the annual anniversary. They said rolled out over $1.000.000.00 (one million great Britian pounds) They also stated that I was randomly selected & drawn from a wide range of web host. I was given a reference and a batch number. I was supposely selected on August 28th in Brocky, London United Kingdom. They asked me file my claim to this winning. The name at the end of the e-mail was Dr. Lu Gard Sch Service. Head Customer Care Service Microsoft Promotion Team.
Needless to say I was very leary and skeptical of this. I sent a reply to find out what I was to do in order to make my claim. I then received an e-mail from TntcourierServices stating I was to send x amount of money to make my claim. I was to send this money by Western Union. They stated that I needed to send this money to the courier service and I would receive an e-mail when they got the money confirming they had received it and then my winnings would be mailed to my address and I would have to sign for it as it was a very large amount of money.
Needless to say I was even more skeptical then because I just could not see that amount of money being sent through the mail no matter what type of service you used. I e-mailed several time stating I wanted some way to check this out to be sure it wasn't a hoax or prank. I received several answers to my e-mails with several persons names on them. They are as follows.
One was from Roland Smith dispatch officer
One was from James Benjamin microsof/aol
I then decided to get on the internet and check out the tntcourierservice web site that is where I found a sight about Lottery sweepstakes rip off and that is how and why I am sending this report. I might be blonde but I'm not dumb. No way was I about to send money from just an e-mail over the net.
Please let me know if this has happened to anyone else or if they have received the same type of e-mails. I am concerned about other people that might send their money and get ripped off.
