Samsung International World Lottery Award 2018 Scam
Samsung International World Lottery Award 2018 Scam

There is no "Samsung International World Lottery Award 2018." Therefore, the email message below, which claims that the recipients are lucky winners of the Samsung Electronic Lottery Award Promotion USA 2017, is a scam that is being sent by lottery scammers to their potential victims. Therefore, recipients of the fake email message should not respond to it or follow the instructions in it. Remember, every month, lottery scammers send out thousands of lottery scamming email messages in an attempt to trick the recipients into thinking they have won the lottery.

Once potential victims respond to the fake lottery scamming email messages, they will be asked by the lottery scammers to send thousands of dollars, which the scammers will claim are for taxes and other fees that the potential victims must pay in order for them to receive their so-called lottery prizes. But, once the lottery scammers receive the money sent by their victims, they will disappear, leaving the victims disappointed, frustrated and thousands of dollars broke.

I was messaged on WhatsApp and it seemed pretty legit. I wasn't asked to pay for anything or give a password for any account. They offered 900,000 USD and had what seem like legit convos with 2 guys and they sent interviews with what seem like regular people who seem like they don't have a script the guy who offered me the Prize called himself William Scott who he said worked for Samsung and he sent me to a DHL agent called Mr. Micheal who gave me detailed steps on what to do. The problem is they aren't asking for anything and I don't have to give them money for taxes, So I am confused about how legitimate they are

There is no such Samsung lottery. If you do not believe me, contact Samsung to verify.

The scammers are using psychology on you. They are attempting to gain your trust first, and if they are able to do so, they will askyou for money when you are most vulnerable.
