"Gmail 2014 Network Promotional Award" Lottery Scam
Gmail users, beware of a lottery scam called "Gmail 2014 Network Promotional Award," that is being sent via email messages (see below) to potential victims by lottery scammers. It is important for everyone to know that there is no Gmail lottery, and there has never been one. So, recipients of email messages claiming that they are winners of a Gmail or Google lottery, should delete the email messages, and should never follow the instructions in them.
Also, it is important to know that Google, the owner of Gmail, and other legitimate companies will never ask their users or customers to send them their personal information via an email message. So, if you are asked to do so, more than likely, someone is attempting to scam you.
