Have you heard of Microsoft corporation sending emails that your account has been hacked and they can fix it for a small fee . First they send out fake emails from other people stating that you (I) have been asking them for money or their social security number and their going to send your emails to Microsoft so they can contact you to fix it . Then a fake Microsoft person sends you an email and calls you . This is the email address they use : corporationmicrosoft960@gmail.com

I received a similar email on Oct 24 from AudI Corporation saying that I had won 900,000USD and a new AudI Q7 car from a person named Don Morgan from the AudI Corp. They mentioned an electronic e mail ballot.

The Winner Batch No. is QRB; 753113NSHJYDS

They asked me to send my name, Age, Country, Nationality, Marital Status, Phone #.

I did not respond as I knew this must be a scam. My husband wanted me to respond, but I did not.

Received this message via SMS connected to email xxxb@rochester.rr.com perhaps a link to Rochester NY and the roadrunner ISP respond to gmfto@outlook.com found your site by search.

Apparently, this group of Phishing artists is filled with m****s. contacting Roadrunner and their parent is the best action.

In my email, there will be sufficient cause to file suit against the ISP for the spamming that is being done via their service. I understand that this may be a zombie account but the ISP is still responsible.

SMS reads as follows:

You have been announced the WINNER of $500,000 with Apple Laptop By Gmail Inc, CONTACT gmfto@outlook.com Email your name, address, age, num.

As you can see the limit of the characters hit. Perhaps Microsoft would like to be involved with the lawsuit as they are the recipients of personal information that has been fraudulently requested. Hmm, let's add them to the potential lawsuit, shall we?

remove

hoorayy! We just won 500k, they only want us to send our name, address, age, to gmftti@gmail.com. Message came over my phone from ssfu@rochester.rr.com.

WWinnings from Gmail and Microsoft inc. Funny I don't recall google and Microsoft working together, nonetheless who uses fu in their email. Anyway, hope this helps you update your data on scammers.

Ha! got ya!

I didn't actually forward their information. But, it was nice knowing I may have given them the scare to reconsider sending out that message again.

I just received this email so glad i looked it up.

I just got this women telling me she saw my name on the list and she got her money and if I am interested her name is nicole Bergeron.

Just got this email today saying I won 500,00 and a new apple laptop from google outlook. Why do people scam people .use the internet for educational purposes and fun. Now it's full of c**p and people from other countries scamming people out of thousands of dollars. It's ridiculous.

The person that they claimed to be is Wiggins, Craig L. and the email is wiggins.143@buckeyemail.osu .edu I looked that email up and it showed me that it's linked to Ohio State University and it looks like there is a Wiggins working there, but his name is Geoff Wiggins.

It also said to contact the events manager department to submit my info and that the Events Manager's name is Mr. Barry Delp

Received a friend request from Nicole Bergeron on Facebook. Then a few days later she shares that she had just cashed her lottery winnings and asked if I cashed mine yet since she saw my name on the winners list. Referred me to Clovis Erwin to obtain my winnings. He let me know I won $500,000.00 through Smartphone technical. Have to send money through Moneygram or Western Union to him for processing and sending it out FedEx. He said he could not use my FedEx account for payment or cashier check to company.

remove

What can happen if you submit you personal info?

remove

I received this email too, from someone claiming to be name: Mr.Wilfred Kumar(Dispatch Officer). I actually thought it was real so I sent my info to him until he had asked me for money, like 300$ for shipment fee... What a scamming joke!

remove

I just received this email November 16, and I should of googled this site then, but I didn't. I wanted to see were they going to ask for money. Last year around this time I received a fake publishers clearing house email stating I won; and my little sister informed me if you won some money they would not make you pay for something you won.

Thank you for sites like this. I should of known I was being scammed although that money would of been useful it was not meant to be..

remove

This looks so fake, it is ridiculous.

I googled it and validated my suspicion it is a SCAM.

Then, went back to the suspicious email and marked it SPAM. It completely disappeared from my email. It is not even in my spam folder.

What a HOAX.

remove

I suspected the letter to be fraudulent and this to be a possible scam. I searched the email address in GOOGLE and it didn't seem to be a real or safe email address. I then went to Cortana, and typed in my concern. Thank you for your reply and I will definitely share this with all of my friends. Thank God I am not naive enough to believe that someone would randomly "give" me $500,000 and lagniappe too. Thank you for your response. K. Martino.

remove

I just got an email notice from gmail/Microsoft online promotions 2015 asking for my address,age and gender and saying I won 500,000 USD. Right off I was thinking scam but wanted to see what their reply was.

My instincts were confirmed when the reply email said that I would have to pay fees in advance of receiving the check and a certified letter of authenticity. Any time you receive correspondence from over seas asking or saying anything pertaining to money please beware.

remove

I got one of these this morning saying that I had won $500.000 and a nokia phone. It looked so real I actually thought I had won.

I sent them my basic info like phone number ect. I never fall for this stuff so I am slapping myself. After I sent that I got a email asking me to pay for shipping to receive the check I then knew it was a scam and I started doing research online and I found this site.

I then forward the email to Spam@uce.GOV. I don't plan on falling for something like this again. If you didn't enter a contest you didn't win.

PLEASE BE CAREFUL. THERE ARE SCUMBAGS OUT THERE TRYING TO ROB YOU!

I also received a email yesterday and I sent the information with out thinking. But from now on I will be aware of such things like this and make sure I do a lot of searching before it happens again.

I got a Gmail lottery email yesterday from gogm@outlook.com, saying that I have won $750,000 and a Nokia X dual SIM phone. I almost sent my details until I researched and saw it's a Scam! Then right now, I've looked for the email and it has been deleted; it's no longer in my inbox.

remove

I just received this same email a couple of days ago. They also sent a follow up email with information on contacting their delivery service, Global. Thought it sounded fishy, which is why I started researching and found this page.

remove

What do I do if they have my info.

remove

What if u send your information what should you do next

remove

I was so pleased to have asked the question - in reply to their first message on 9/21/15 - "Could I please be provided first with proof that this is NOT A SCAM?", because when I didn't hear back from the scammer(s), I went on-line and saw the list of lottery scams on www.onlinethreatalerts.com. I also Googled "buckeyemail.osu.edu" which sender's address was on their first email and found that it was a free student email network associated with Ohio State University! Should this not be reported to the University in question?

Today on 9/25/15, I received a second message from them with detailed instructions for receipt of the $500,000 and a request for my personal data. I was fully prepared and in reply sent the article on Lottery Scams as well as the entire Fraudulent Email Message alert in that article to them. I should have added that I would report this incident to crime-stopping agencies but assume that they will now switch to a different scheme...

This is a scam.. Microsoft already had your info.. Google does too.. they have been collecting it.. but the thing is..if I tried some scam like this..they would have me shut down in half a day with federal agents all over my house..but no one does nothing to these guys..kinda makes you think the powers that be,at very least,sanction this stuff..

Is it okay to trick them back to get them to stop. I don't want to be mean, but I want them to stop.

If I have sent a reply to this user already, what can they do with my information? Is there any way for me to fix this, or remove the sent email?

Thanks.

remove

I received one and almost sent them my info. Then I researched it in "google" and found it to be a scam. Thank you google.

Another email they are using is "mcwlff@ outlook.com" got it today.

But ya know... with the amount of money microsoft pulls in each year from all of us sheep, it would be really incredible for them to do a yearly giveaway like this. Give a little something back to the little people. How much money do you really need Mr. Gates 😟

Just sayin 😕

How to block this kind of scammer?

I just got one. Didn't reply to it instead I googled the email. First that came up is that it is a fraudulent email. Hate these scammers.

I just got an email very similar to the one shown on this website literally 10 minutes ago. Is this c**p for real? A five hundred thousand U.S. dollars with Microsoft Surface pro- 3 Laptop by Gmail corporation?

The person sending me this has an email called: gmlth@outlook.com

They are asking me for all my personal info including my address, phone number, and full name. Just tell them to p*ss off or better yet, delete the d*mn email. It's a SCAM!

remove

8-30-15..I just got this too. Glad I looked it up..didn't look right when I saw words misspelled, and some words without spaces in between.

I don't see a company like Microsoft,or Bill Gates for that matter, sending out such an unprofessional email. I also doubt they would need that kind of info from you.

These crooks need to smarten up...ALOT. Or at least proof read their material...This a topic for a new spin off of an old show...We can call it, "America's Dumbest Cyber/Online Criminals". The first episode could be about the lottery email notices, and the hilariously misspelled and misspaced, mispunctuated letter body, that went out to probably millions like that.

Yup, I got this email today! These people need to be stopped and caught and rot in a foreign prison somewhere soon! Get a job or a 711 like the rest of them!

I just received the e-mail at 1:11 AM on Sunday July 19, 2015 from e-mail address ftalley@knology.net so yes, it is still going on.

Surely nobody is dumb enough to think that anything like this is even remotely legitimate in this day and age where there have been countless news broadcasts and warnings to the general public.

I just hope that no one falls prey to these people! Also, PLEASE always forward e-mails like this to Spam@uce.GOV! That's the United State's Government's department that handled these types of things for several decades now...

Just got an email almost the same but not the apple computer. It's Nokia X2 Dual Sim Windows phone. I knew it was a scam, but wanted to let you know that they are still doing it.

I sent my info out accidentally believing it was real today. Did my research on it cause something didn't feel right and found out it was scam. What should I do next? I did send out my info.

remove

What can they get with that info? Or if you open the letter doc what kind of trouble am I in?

remove

So glad I found this. I got this email today and almost submitted the information. I was going to email the address given at the bottom to ask of the legitimacy when I realized it had nothing to do with gmail.

Thank you for this post. I cannot afford to get scammed.

remove

I just got an email from Gmail lottery saying I won 750,000.00 They say to contact Trans Global Logistics for my check. Ha! If it were only that easy! I have to admit, I was almost going to do it, but my common sense told me NO NO NO!

remove

Is there any way to report this scam or something? I hate being victimized.

remove

Thanks for the heads up! I ve received one today, and honestly got excited for a second! People should do their homework before they volunterly provide their personal info. Again thank you!

remove

I just received the scam email as well. How I knew it was a scam? I could really use the 500 Grand and my luck does not run that way..thanks for this post.

remove

I can't remember how many of these notices I have gotten in the past few years. If these were real, I would be a multi-millionaire by now.

It is strange that a person receiving so many of these wouldn't think something about this is fraudulent. I didn't volunteer any of this information to win it, so why do I need to provide this information to collect it.

Everybody please be careful because there are individuals out there to steal you blind if they get a chance ( I think most of you already realize this).

Every time I get one of these, I report it from my Gmail options:(Report Scam)and hopefully the proper authorities will find and prosecute them.

remove

Thank you, but today I sent my data mistakenly to scammers. What I do now?

remove

I received an email saying I would receive $750,000.00 and an apple computer from Gmail. The reason I had my doubts about its being real or not was the fact that the information had to be emailed back to the event coordinator for Gmail at an email address that was not a Gmail address, which told me right way this was not right. I called the Better Business Bureau then I Googled it and sure enough it's a scam. Thank you everyone for making sure those of us who received our notices after you all could find information to protect ourselves thanks to all of you!

remove

I received an email identical to this one today. My family was skeptical about it but I was so hopeful that is wasn't a prank and I'd actually won money.

I was so excited and could not sleep the entire night. The next day I decided to do sum research and was disappointed to say the least to find that it was a total scam.

remove

This is sad. At this point and time in my life, I am going through some major issues. My husband of 26 years had a heart attack 5 years ago which made his health rapidly decline. He is one of the hardest working men I've ever known. About a year ago he had a stroke. He lost the job working on tractors and heavy farm equipment that he was employed at for the last 10 years.

My health being as it is, poor and also declining, I am currently unemployed as well. My best friend was murdered, my mother just passed away, and so did my cousin. So when I received the email stating I was picked out 80 million people to receive 750,000 I thought maybe there was hope. So since I wasn't as smart as some of the other people and I did send them my info.

What precautions should I take at this time?

I'm surprised that the Gmail server delivered this scam to my inbox. I usually don't receive spam or scams to my inbox. They go directly to the Spam Folder and Gmail flags them as potential threats. I'm a little disappointed with Gmail over this getting through right now.

I am glad I google the lottery... SCAM

Well first of all I personally want to say thanks guys for your warnings . I got the same scam yesterday and like a broke man in need of cash I did send some of my information, but no money.

remove

Same here.told me I was one of 5 winners that has won $500,000 USD and an Apple laptop. Gave me three options for Global Courier.

I foolishly gave some info, but no money (thank God). What tipped me off was all of the spelling and grammatical errors in the emails. Plus, why would this be coming from India and not here in the States?

My original email came from a woman with a University of Georgia email account. Thank God above I researched it before I sent them money.

remove

If I submitted my information in response, what should I do to prevent anyone stealing my identity?

remove

I have also received numerous scams such as these and most of them originated from Nigeria, so please be careful, Do not send money or any personal info, if its a legitimate winning it will go through attorneys, so be careful. They all will tell you not to involve attorneys or anyone in the legal field; that's a big red flag and they will ask for money for processing fees.

Do Not Fall for this, they are scammers!

remove

So far this year I have rec'd 2 of these. I tried to contact Google, Gmail, Outlook, and others to no avail. If it feels to good to be true it probably is. Thanx for finally bring attention to this scam.

There are also scams re the FBI homeland security united nations and so many others.kpb

Wish I had the ability to sent back a virus, malware, trojan, worm or the like to "thank" them.

Hopefully there is a reality somewhere in this multiverse where this is not done.

ONCE AGAIN CONGRATULATIONS..."

remove

I got scammed dawn.

remove

I received a message from mlpisani@zoomintern.net.

The mail said that I won 800,000 pounds and apple laptop. And the mail want me to send my identification.

The mail said that I should contact claims.unit1@outlook.com to get my winnings

Just want to report it to gmail so that they can do something immediately about this scam.

remove

My favorite is you won an Apple, not a Mac, made by Microsoft. It's not even like they are trying to hide it.

remove

I received an email telling me I won 750,000 dollars. Really wanted to believe it but stuff like that doesn't happen to me so figured it was a scam, lmao.

remove

Yap I received this last night and did not do anything with it. Sooooooo wanted to reply that I was an officer of the law!

remove

I received an email and submitted my information on a Saturday night. I got a response on Sunday morning that a Check questions had already been issued in my name, as delivered to the Global Courier Services together with an Apple laptop, to be sent to me.

All I have to do is contact the courier company and arrange to pay the courier fees for the delivery!

I can now kick myself for being so naive and giving them my personal information.

So far, nothing has happened, but it is still early and I worry if they can use my personal

information to commit farther fraud. I have learned my lesson.

remove

Thanks for your alert I ask myself if these people represent G-mail why didn't they use a G-mail address instead of outlook.com?

remove

I got this email and knew it was too good to be true and googled it to verify the scam.

remove

I got scammed and mad about it. I know better, what was I thinking? Won't be fooled twice.

remove

This is thread is old, yet my hubby just received this email scam this morning. I marked it as spam & reported it as phishing.

These people need to go outside & play baseball or something instead of scamming people...

remove

I received this email this morning but I did not respond to it.instead I googled and found this site. :/

remove

I also got this message and good when you are warned of these scams. Thank you.

remove

Ok, after submitting my info to what appeared to be legitimate, ended up being a big freaking hoax! Preying on innocent people, people with disabilities, people struggling to find a job to accommodate their disabilitiesis completely and utterly DISHONEST! I had to retire at the age of 38 do to my call center with AT&T close down in Syracuse New York.

I've found a job working with Yellow Book USA and had to travel several hundreds of miles each and every day, which only lasted approximately 5 months and 29 days due to an Auto accident, which resulted in neuropathy, fibromyalgia, herniated discs, neck issues including bulging discs, 17 surgeries and I have to undergo three more. This was only the quote topping on the cake unquote.

Knowing how much gas cost, maintenance, on my vehicle and working 10 to 17 hours a day 5 days a week cost me my marriage the loss of my children "custody" because I could not give them a proper home to live in. I currenty pay an obscene amount of child support in the tune of $2,800.00 per month.

I currently reside living with my mother and father which is completely humiliating at the age of 48. My social life, WHICH I DONT HAVE, my medical issue, WHICH I CANT EVEN PAY FOR MY CO-PAYS, is just not enough. I CAN NOT SUPORTIVE MYSELF, LET ALOVE GIVE MY CHILDREN THE LIFE THEY DESERVE. BUT MY CHILDREN SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES. I HAVE LIVED WITH THIS "HORRIBLE, HUMILIATING, LIFE AND MY CHILDREN SEE IT AND ARE are too young to do anything about it.

I, know have workmans comp breathing down my throat trying to reduce my measly $800.00 check I receicve to support myself, now that may seam like a lot of money, but don't forget my 43% that goes to my ex wife for my children. I can't support, financially, myself, let alone, my two children ages 11 and 13.

Now, addressing the issue of DS criminals that should be put away for life for extorting, bilking, fraudulent SON'S OF BI**CHES.

I am an educated man who is damaged beyond recognition mentally physically emotionally!

Someone please do something about people like this extort, manipulate, people cool just want to live their lives.today hour to hour minute by minute, thinking of where food is going to come from. Needless to say my children did not have a Christmas this year or last year and I am EXTREMELY frustrated and disappointed with all our technology with IP addresses, baiting these people who are responsible for their actions! I don't understand, I will never understand why people are so dishonest and manipulative.

Who wins here? They do! They do it over and over and over and over again! They get away with it! When is it going to stop! Who's going to stop it!? Let me guess nobody, just let it keep going and going and going and going and going and let these criminals who ARE BOUND TO H**L for extorting people like myself included.

I thought this was a legitimate email with google name and Microsoft name on it. I feel like a fool, humiliated, thinking that I could have some type of future for my 11 year old and my 13 year old children.

And for those of you responsible for this BS, YOU WILL HAVE TO ANSWER TO SOMEONE AND THAT "SOMEONE" IS THE DEVIL HIMSELF. I HOPE YOU ROT IN H**L FOR YOUR ACTIONS! I'M SURE THIS ISN'THE 1ST SCAM YOU PEOPLE HAVE DONE, BUT I HOPE IT WILL BE THE LAST!

God bless, be honest, and make someone smile everyday. That's what I try and do when I get out in the public, which is not that often!

Sincerely,

The struggler, for my life and my two children life

remove

I received one of these emails too and it would be so nice if these scammers could just get a life and quit wasting our time.

remove

I received this email this morning but I did not respond to it.instead I was trying to reach someone with Gmail by phone instead.

remove

The same message has been sent to me! I think its important these people learn to contain their trash rather than contaminating other peoples' environment.

Kang' from Kenya.

remove

Hi,

I know it's a scam but I did replied to them. What is going to happen now? What should I do? It was just name address etc. So I didn't give them any passwords or card details.

Regards

remove

I think this is horrible to send emails like this at a time when so many people are hurting financially.

remove

I received an email asking for my info because I am one out of five to receive $5000 and an Apple laptop. Bummer its a scam. They even had a logo of Gmail and Windows 8. Saying it's from Microsoft incorporation. Wish there was a legal way to stop this.

remove

Hello, just received that infamous email, supposedly sent from goigke ( it had their logo on it, lending more credibility to the scam) although they're not asking for any banking info, I'm sure that will follow.

remove

I just got this email, and had red flags going up, so I decided to check it out online, and I'm glad I did! I'm sick and tired of these crooks who take advantage of good people every day. I wish there was more that could be done to deter these criminals or better yet find them and lock them up!

To all the victims out there this is an easy mistake to make the only reason I didn't fall for it is that I have been duped before by an online scam. The rule I go by now is if looks to good to be true it probably is. It's small consolation right now but it will be okay. Just watch your bank account and credit card info closely. Monitor your credit score regularly, and if anything looks wrong call your bank, and credit card company, right away!

Above all don't feel stupid, it's an easy trap to fall into, and fraudsters know it.

Thank you for launching this website, it now has a special place on my desktop! I will be telling others about it. It's a good job and important work that you people are doing, again well done!

remove

I'm so dumb! I just responded to this without researching it, a big rookie mistake!:-(

I know better yet here I am posting my stupid self.

remove

If you know this is a scam and tech info is available WHY IS IT ACTIVE? If the FBI can identify the recent N. Korean hackers - SONY ... certainly this internet scam should be a breeze to identify & stop! Further more the use of Gmail and Windows logo used in this scam is reason enough to press legal charges.

remove

Received this e-mail yesterday good thing I found out it is a scam.

remove

I knew it was a scam, who sends out an email of this nature at 5:31 am? It asked for all my personal information with the exception of my social security number which I'm sure would be their next response.

They also gave themselves away by saying that I was selected electronically without having to apply.come on, the only way you will win that kind of money is by having entered into some sort of contest or lottery willingly and then you had better check yourself again if you so happen to win it. Best piece of advice is; if it sounds to good to be true, it usually isn't!

It's a down right shame that anyone who calls themselves a human being or better yet, a child of God has nothing else to do in their lives but destroy others and take their hard earned monies. My best advice to them is to get up off their butts and make a honest living like everyone else.

remove

If it sounds too good to be true - it usually is. I'm glad for this website.

remove

Isn't there something you can do about this scam? I'm embarrassed to say that I opened it and gave my information. Luckily I didn't send any money before I investigated.

remove

1. Neither google nor Microsoft would work together in this way.

2. The prize would have been either a google chrome book or a Microsoft based laptop.

3. Gmail would already have most of my information.

4. Copyright and trademark information would have been included with the email. (Disclaimer)

5. There would not have been so many typos and improper grammar.

6. Unless your publishers clearing house most sweepstakes both applied for and auto submitted would not break 100,000 USD

7. There would not be 80,000 plus winners according to google!

remove

I just received an email like this last night, but it was for only $500 and a Nokia smartphone.

Had the exact same content verbatim as some of the emails in comments below. I responded asking to confirm it was a real contest before I give my information because I know a bunch of scams are always popping up...

They can't get my info from just a response email, right? or am I in trouble?

Again, didn't give ANY info, just asked them to confirm. $500 seemed like a realistic prize. :-(

remove

Hi,I received that exact message this morning and knew better to look this up on google. Thank you so much for having this on here because there is nothing worse then having your identity stolen.

remove

I immediately researched and found that it is indeed a scam. Do not send them any info.

remove

12/15/14. Just received this email also, immediately Google "Gmail 500000" and poof here I am,... still broke.

remove

I got it 12/15/14 but I received it a week or so ago, and about a year ago. It almost got me too, but once I thought about it no kind of lottery is going to keep notifying you if its legit. They would notify you maybe wait a while then move on. Not going to bug you to claim $500,000. Then I searched it and its obviously SPAM. The SOB that does this needs to be found and taught a lesson for this.

remove

Got this on Dec 14th 2014... Scam... thanks for the info

remove

I just received this email. Glad I looked this up before responding.

remove

I almost believed it! :P

remove

Here is another scam:

"This is to inform you that you have won a prize money of ($500,000.00 USD) for this 2014 promotion which is organized by The

Google Gmail collects all the email addresses of the people that are active online, among the millions that subscribed to Yahoo and

Hotmail, Gmail we only select five people every Month as our winners through electronic balloting System without the winner

applying, we congratulate you for being one of the people selected.

SEND YOUR DETAIL TO (gwm_nwx@qq.com)

1. Full Name: 2. Home Address 3 Age 4. Phone. Number: 5. S*x 6: Occupation 7. State: 8 Country:

Thank you and accept my hearty congratulations once again!"

remove

I'm sorry, but do people seriously believe Gmail, Google, Microsoft, Coca-cola, Band-aid, the Clapper, Chia Pet, or any other company is going to randomly select you to win $$$?

What I thought was funniest was that I get $800,000 AND a, Apple laptop, lol! As if the 800k wouldn't be enough to buy myself a laptop if I didn't have one.?

There is nothing about the email that looks valid. Even the copied logos look lame.

If Gmail sent me an email announcing I was the winner of anything (which I know would never happen), I'm pretty sure the grammar, spelling, and punctuation would all be correct.

And I'm thinking I might reply to a "GMAIL" address?

Since it is coming from GMail and all? But ok, I suppose I can give you that one since foxmail (which I know NOBODY who has an @foxmail address, btw) is from Windows.

And this is somehow a collaborative prize from Gmail, Microsoft, and Windows 8...?

And this:

"Hurray we are glad to announce to you that your Gmail ID have won you prize money..." HAVE?

And sorry I'm picky but I'd think Hurray might have an exclamation point or two behind it.

I mean, let's show some excitement here! I've won $800 THOUSAND dollars!? There..that's better.

Lol! Really? "Hurray"?! This is how Gmail would start an official announcement that I was one of 5 lucky random winners of $800,000?!?! Don't think so.

And ummmm... Microsoft is giving me an APPLE laptop as a prize?. Well that's peculiar.

I won it "...for this month of December 2014 lottery, sweepstakes,..." - ok, for this MONTH...but then "we only select five people every YEAR as our winners..." Well which is it, a monthly drawing, or an annual one?

..."lottery, sweepstakes,"... Hmmmm, which is it? A lottery, or a sweepstakes? Let's just cover all our bases here. You forgot "contest".

Please please please folks use your heads!

This one didn't even sound too good to be true. It sounded too fake to be true.

remove

The email below was sent to me tonight. Thought I'd share:

"Dear Email User,

This email was sent to me tonight. Thanks God for this search engine.? Scam alert!

remove

I received an email as stated. I have been requested to respond to:

mrharveyevans@webmail.co.za or sapaymentoffice@gmail.co.za. the following phone number was given too: 27780362915

I did not open the email or responded, I just deleted it.

Why isn't gmail doing something about this? Has anyone tried to contact Google or Yahoo?

You cannot under any circumstance talk to a real person.

I was trying to retrieve important emails from five years ago sent from China.

No one at Yahoo wants to talk or be contacted.Google is the same.

remove

I received this message in my gmail. I just want to know if anything is being done about this? These people should be stopped.

Thank you,

Denise

The message came from sammarie@ksu .edu

remove

I was taken by the scam, I never sent money but I did give my personal information. You would think that I would learn that if it sounds to be good to be true, it isn't true.

remove

I just recieved a similiar email on 12/4/14 from gmail saying I won 500,000 US dollars and a Apple Laptop.

Of course I was skeptic cause who doesnt want to win a half million dollars and a free laptop.

I contacted the first email they gave me with my basic info and then today recieved a follow up from them telling me to contact their courier company global corporations for disbursment and deliever of goods...but the clincher was when it said to make arrangements for payment to this company for deliever!

Ya, No.total scam...I just hope at this point they dont get anything from me from just my basic info.

remove

Just got an email about winning lottery and laptop...I reported it already via gmail...

remove

I got this email and gave all my information. After sending my email I thought to check about it. I should have checked before I answered.

I received this offer of 800 thous$ plus an apple laptop. I answered and returned all of their questions hoping it was true(gullible) and hopeful. I would imagine that I now have a serious virus. Why do people want to do this to innocent people.

remove

Thanks for the alert . I have been on the phone with corporate trying to confirm the validity of a sweepsteaks announcement offering a $ 800,000.00 prize and free Apple laptop.

It is posted using Gmails trademarked logo. Does the SEC police fraudulent internet practices?

Who gave people the right to solicit information on behalf of a corporate entity?

I think someone is sleeping behind the wheel.

remove

I just got the same email tonight! Reported it as Phishing on gmail.too good to be true and any one asking for that much personal information without legal mombo jumbo attached is always a scam.

Besides, is it even legal to enter one into a contest without their consent. Yes, I admit people can be tricked with the promise of money, but really, we as consumers online should be better sceptics.

Also, I agree and hope that these scammers will be shut down!

remove

I opened this message in my Gmail account on my Nook HD . Need help in correcting the virus. My mail will open for 2 seconds, then shut.

I received this email two days ago and didn't proceed after the second email. The foxmail account should be looked into and prosecuted appropriately! This is disgusting and should be stopped by gmail and Microsoft corporations!
