All legitimate banks have this type of online security called SSL. When you visit a website, the website address or URL for a secured website starts with https:// instead of the unsecured http://.

    Well thank God I didn't send my personal info. I know it's a scam, to all of you guys who received same message, just think before you click. Not everything you see on the internet is true.

  • November 21, 2015 at 9:58 AM by an anonymous user from: Windhoek, Khomas, Namibia

    Hi,

    Thanks a lot for the warning. I freaked out and got very much excited when I saw that I won US dollars and it was too good too be true, so I searched this so called Lindiwe online and came across this site and saw that it was just a scam.

    I was almost prepared to give all my details, but you guys saved me.

  • November 16, 2015 at 2:19 PM by an anonymous user from: Tehran, Tehran, Iran

    Hello, the same email received for me. And, I without research about mail, send my personal information, contact number and my residential. Of course, I did not send my bank account information. Does the problem occur?

    Thanks.

    • November 16, 2015 at 3:39 PM by info

      This will not cause a problem. Just be careful next time, because the scammers will attempt to use the information that you have sent, to trick you into sending money or more information.

  • November 3, 2015 at 11:00 PM by an anonymous user from: Jakarta Pusat, Jakarta, Indonesia

  • April 14, 2015 at 9:56 PM by an anonymous user from: Davao City, Davao Region, Philippines

    I just received an email informing that I have won in the lotto draw since I don't remember making a bet.

    Before taking the risk to send my personal details, I really look for this Lindiwe Mande online and found out this post.

    Thank you so much for saving me from this fraudulence.

    • April 28, 2015 at 7:33 AM by an anonymous user from: Bengaluru, Karnataka, India

      • April 28, 2015 at 7:58 AM by info

        No.

  • April 10, 2015 at 4:01 PM by an anonymous user from: Montreal, Quebec, Canada

    I received the same email. But the moment i read the email i knew that it is fake.

    In this world where everybody is trying to be reach, there is no one that awards so much money out of no where.

  • April 7, 2015 at 8:37 PM by an anonymous user from: Makati City, National Capital Region, Philippines

  • March 28, 2015 at 11:22 AM by an anonymous user from: Newark, New Jersey, United States

    Hello! I'm from Venezuela. Thanks God I found this site. I received the same "spam mail" and it says I have won 94.000 $ too. Now I see this is fake. Don't believe it!

  • March 26, 2015 at 12:12 PM by an anonymous user from: Ljubljana, Slovenia

    The same here.

    Email came from: ltaj917 <ltaj917@gmx.net>

  • March 25, 2015 at 2:44 AM by an anonymous user from: Skopje, Karpoš, Macedonia

    I just received exact same email. I am so glad I googled her name which brought to this website. ~

  • March 23, 2015 at 12:41 AM by an anonymous user from: Mandaluyong, National Capital Region, Philippines

    I also receive same as you guys. I double check about it and it's a scam.

    And, now I lost confidence in using my gmail.

    My question is, why does this email spread?

    • March 23, 2015 at 7:50 AM by info

      The email is sent out as spam, and spam is one of the biggest problems on the internet.

      Google and other email providers are trying everyday to protect their users, but scammers and cyber-criminals are always finding new ways to beat the system.

      So, it is in your interest to protect yourself, by doing your research or applying a little common sense, before following instructions in an email message, especially one that says you have won the lottery.

      Not because an email has Google logos, the names of their executives, and appear to have been sent by them, it doesn't necessarily means it sent by them.

  • March 20, 2015 at 6:39 PM by an anonymous user from: Bartlesville, Oklahoma, United States

    well I type in this lady's name LINDA WANDIPO. I never signed up for a contest or anything like that, but for some reason or another I ended up winning $94,000 for the fight against Eboli.

    I'm lost can somebody help me or not because I don't know what the h**l is going on did I win.

  • March 20, 2015 at 12:06 PM by an anonymous user from: London, England, United Kingdom

    I have received the same email too. I sent them my phone number, name, and address. Horrible how can they trick people like this. I do give money to several charities so I found it weird but believed it...

  • March 18, 2015 at 8:49 AM by an anonymous user from: Sopot, Woj. Pomorskie, Poland

    Hello everybody,

    Thank you for your comments! I am aware of emails like this very much. I got the same message just a few minutes ago so I decided to check out if it is a fake and I found this site. It's terrible that they are doing this to people from all over the world (I am from Poland, Europe). Thanks once more and be careful - I like this sentence "money don't grow on the trees" :).

    I wish a good day for everyone of you!

  • March 17, 2015 at 3:05 PM by an anonymous user from: Gwynn Oak, Maryland, United States

    I just received this same email. I work in a cyber security capacity and this email SCREAMED scam; specifically a phishing ploy.

    As many on this site have stated, NOTHING is free...at least not $94K-worth!

    If you're using Gmail, you can report the email as a phishing email by simply using the reply drop-down.

    There's a "report phishing" option that will alert the complete Gmail team. This is reprehensible!

    • March 24, 2015 at 2:17 AM by an anonymous user from: Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa

      Thanks... That was much appreciated...

  • March 17, 2015 at 12:54 PM by an anonymous user from: Bangkok, Thailand

    date: 16 March 2015 at 19:20

    subject: tgvh007

    bla bla bla..."

    94,000USD/ fight against Ebola/ Serial Batch No/ Winning Number/ Ref No/ edith.rampe@representative.com/ Mrs Lindiwe Mande/ Mr. Linda Wandipo/ Chairman of 2015SPT

    SWOT analysis,

    Strongs:

    Lotto Winner, 94,000USD

    Weaks:

    The form isn't formal; no Org.'s address, the names can't be found on google, I didn't fight against Ebola, fighting against Ebola shouldn't be inspired by Lotto, there're more than 3 lucky winners according to this webpage, etc.

    Oppotunities:

    1 or more of victims may not becareful of thismail and following the fake instruction.

    Threats:

    This is 2015; Internet is everywhere also Google.com

    Hi,

    I also received announcement letter from a Ms Lindiwe Mande requesting me to send personal info to the email, edith.rampe@ representative.com.

    A letter was signed by a certain Mr Linda Wandipo. Apparently I'm told that I have won 94,000 USD and to claim the money I have to send my personal information. I'm glad I googled the name Lindiwe Mande which brought me here.

    Beware. Money do not grow on tree.

    • March 15, 2015 at 10:13 AM by an anonymous user from: Montevideo, Uruguay

      Yes, I received this e-mail too... But, it looks fake with a naked eye, anyway. Cyber-crime is real, and it´s happening way too often nowadays.

  • March 4, 2015 at 2:26 PM by an anonymous user from: Raleigh, North Carolina, United States

    they took the webpage down! I guess this was all fake.

  • March 1, 2015 at 6:32 AM by an anonymous user from: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

    First, I need to thank you for this alert. My name is A. Cristina, from Brazil. Fortunately, I found out this before send my identity and my bank account to second email.

    Yesterday, Mrs Lindiwe sent me 4 emails that I needed to send copy of my identity to this bank from London to further directives. She/he presents like a "payment coordinator" of this annual free draw.

    Unfortunately, I send muy working address and my identity in this email:lindiwe.mande@africamail.com, believing that was legitime.

    Do I need to report this to federal police of my country? I don't send my personals information or account to this fake site.

    Thanks for your service.
