Email Scam: Euro Million Award Lottery

The object of scam letters and scam email is not just to get you to send the scammers money for false reasons, but to obtain your identity. This is accomplished both by asking you personal identity questions and by downloading spy ware and viruses (Trojan Horses) onto your hard drive when you open their emails.

Very, very little personal information is required for a personal information harvester to fill in the blanks.

Some scammers then take whatever information they have harvested from you and your hard drive and enter the information into "detective" software easily available on the Internet. Those who know what they are doing can obtain your Social Security Number or National ID information, plus property information - real estate, car, boat, motorcycle, etc.

Everything you do on the Internet is automatically stored on your hard drive for the hackers to steal with their malware, including all your usernames and passwords, purchase information such as credit cards and e-checks, access to your online banking, email address books, etc.

Even if the emails you are opening do not contain any malicious code, when you open the email a receipt is sent to the scammer. He or she now has your IP address and the malware is off and running at your computer.

Once they have your email address, it is sold into scammer mailing lists. Your inbox will begin filling with scam emails and Spam.

Once they have your physical address, it is sold into scammer and phishing mailing lists. You may receive fake lottery winning notifications, other solicitations, loan offers, and counterfeit checks and/or money orders.
