Blackberry UK Promotion Lotto Jackpot Scam

I was told that I won 1 million Pounds in a blackberry lottery promo in the year 2014 by one Mr. Edwin claiming the money was deposited in their bank for onward transfer to my account in Nigeria but that I should pay the sum of 500 Dollars to facilitate the transfer which I refused to pay.

Again about a month ago I received another mail from them saying the money has been transferred to U S A to one agent who will contact me for the release of the money on payment of a specified amount this time also I refused to send them any money.

What I will like to know is. If Blackberry has any type of lottery promo organized and how can somebody know if such promo is real or fake.

Once you asked to send money to receive a lottery prize, it is a scam. Legitimate lottery companies will never ask their winners to send money in order to receive their prizes.

Here is another scam:
