Answer:
scam. sorry. they have them out for every country in the world pretty much. they ask for money to process the win. just delete them, and forget it.
So did I, . ignore it ..it's a scam
Are they asking you to pay some money to them?
If yes; it is all fake.
gee.I got one of those too.and I live in the states, and have never been to Oz.
no,they are crook
Did you enter the Australian Lottery? probably not, so this would make this SPAM mail.
it's a scam.. just toss the email into the trash folder.
Only if they inclosed two first class ticket for you to fly to australia to pick up the cash.
Other wise its a scam
IT'S A SCAM!
I am one of several hundred employees that got the same one. 400,000 don't go that far. scam
never believe such things later on they will ask your id and send you spams and viruses. thanks for 2 points.
I can't believe u would even consider there would be a remote possibility that they would give that much amt. to people for nothing. It's not true. sorry. ignore such e-mails next time. I get a lot of them saying u have just won a laptop, T.V, etc. u might get them too . so just ignore them. good luck.
nope, it's not, if you truelly win the lottery, they will let you know by post (through the letterbox kinda post!), not by e-mail. i know this kind, i'[ve received so many crappy spam about this lottery buisness. the im[portant thing is to not respond and not check out any websites or things like that, because if you do you will probably either get a virus or be linked in some netwrok that you don't wanna be linked to, and there's just about nothing you can do after that! so just delete them and you'll be fine!
It is a scam. I get 2 - 3 per day, most from Europe.
Basically if anyone offers you money via e-mail it is a trick. The common ones are:
> You won a lottery.
> Someone from Africa has a box containing millions with a security company.
> Someone in Africa has embezzled money from the Oil / Rail / Transport ministry and wants you to help smuggle it out of the county.
> Someone in Africa, China or Europe wants you to collect checks from their customers in the USA and forward them to him, keeping 10%.
> A banker knows of a rich man who died in a car / airplane crash and wants you to pretend to be the dead man's next of kin.
I've gotten that email dozens of times. and from a UK lotto and a few others. Put it this way how would you win if you never signed up. and if they are asking for your Routing number and account number you know it's Fake. they are just trying to get the info so they can empty your checking account. Report it as Spam and delete.
Just thugs out there trying to cheating. I had a hoard of them, I didn't bother.
Sounds like a Nigerian scam.
