"Samsung Galaxy International Awareness Promotion" Lottery Scam

If you have received the fraudulent e-mail below: "Samsung Galaxy International Awareness Promotion Awards," please do not follow the instructions in it because it is a lottery scam. There is no Samsung lottery or Samsung Galaxy promotion, and the fraudulent email message was sent by cyber-criminals/scammers. Sending your personal information to these cyber-criminals will only help them rip you off. Every month, thousands of these email messages are sent out by scammers to trick their potential victims into stealing their personal information and/or sending money. Therefore, recipients of the Samsung email messages claiming that they are lottery winners, should delete them and never follow the instructions in them.
