Tue, 2007/03/20 - 03:28hi igot the same e-mail i am not sure about it but still that guy who calls him self as cliff i spoke to him not asked any money and aslo he sent me a form inquiring my personnel information and bank details what should i do !
Khalid
He will ask for money
Tue, 2007/03/20 - 10:15The form is the first step, then he will ask for fees to open a bank account in your name. Then fees for a certificate, then fees for something else. You will never see a prize and you will be scammed out of your own money.
Read a real life example of a sad case of you won the lottery advance fee fraud.

GULLS
Sat, 2007/04/14 - 12:09Any Email you get through the web, regarding winning Lotto events from SA are always bogus, just like the trend in Bank email Scams and Frauds, Whereby they say things like, NEW UPDATES TO YOUR ACCOUNT NEED TO BE VERIFIED, PLEASE SEND YOUR ACCOUNT DETAILS TO THIS FORWARDING ADDRESS......No No No, dont be fooled into thinking you've won anything, or that somehow your acconts have been hacked into...Its all Lies, If they dont mention your your First Name and Surname at he top of the email, its complete nonsense!
Guys...Please do not fall for these gulabul kidish pranks, its seems now, that a 15 year old on a laptop with access to the web and a little knowledge about the workings of currency transactions, can fool!
Honestly when is the last time you heard of somebody winning over 2 Million Dollars on an unknown Lottery System in South Africa..........Please.... No one does and no one ever will.
Thats like a guy walking up to you in the street and saying please will you take this, its 2 Million Dollars in Cash......??????????
