Email allegedly from Angela Dawes, large winner of British Lottery in November. Wanting ho share her good fortune, willing to transfer one million GBP to 20 people around the world to benefit others.
Once contact made gains basic personal information, name address mobile phone number and (ideally scanned copy of proof of identity document) then forwards transfer code to send to the bank. Now the bank is Natwest Bank Plc UK, which is easily seen as a SCAM / phishing site. Story is you need to take out a membership with this bank for the transfer to clear and then it is alleged the bank will forward the cleared monies to your account in home country.
Looking at information on the site (scam site) the bank is likely to want you to open an acccount which is loooking as though will involve using your own funds. So they get money out of you, using a step process. Quite clever.
