"Malaysia Reward Gift 2018 Google Services" Lottery Scam
The email message below, which claims that the recipients are winners in the "Malaysia Reward Gift 2018 Google Services" lottery is a scam. The lottery scam has been created by scammers to trick the recipients into sending their personal information and money, by claiming that they are the winners of the Malaysia Reward Gift 2018 Google Services lottery. But, there is no such Google lottery, and Google will never ask online users to send their personal information via an email message.
