Dear Sir,
Would you kindly help me to find out with the ANZ Banking Group in the UK, that recently I was informed by the Co-ordinator of Power Line Lottery organization in UK,MRS.IRENE REBELLO saying that I won a jackpot of 1,500,000,00 GBP to my EMAIL ADDRESS. They wrote to me that the said CHEQUE is domiciled in the Automated Suspense Account(ASA) in the ANZ Bank, UK. Then I again contacted the Attorney of INTERPOL,UK who replied me that he investigated on this case and he also informed that others all are fradulent emails to eat up my hard earned money, and the GENUINE is that I have won the Lottery from Power Line Internations, UK and the Original Winning was published in some National Dailies, and it developed from the National Dailies whereby scammers/spammers noted my EMAIL ADDRESS and started contacting me in the Internet.

The INTERPOL Officer has informed me that the ORIGINAL WINNING CHEQUE is domiciled in the ANZ Bank,UK. I am unable to get the RIGHT PERSON/OFFICER of the ANZ BANK,UK to contact myself personally on this matter.

I would be much grateful to you if you could kindly help me in this matter,so that I might send my documents of Identity to the RIGHT OFFICER of the ANZ BANK,UK for transfer process of my WINNING.

The INTERPOL Officer has advised me to write to him about the development of my contact with the ANZ Bank Officer,UK.

Kindly reply me soonest.

With kind regards and prayers,

Yours faithfully
MICHAEL RONGONG.

Lol, are you guys pulling my chain? You are joking right? I mean, NO ONE on this planet could be retarded enough to be taken in by these pathetic, ridiculously transparent sad excuses for cons..... could they?

Seriously though, you guys are either mentally retarded, or have lives soooooo horribly tragic that you must live in some weird fantasy world where you genuinely believe a perfect stranger is going to email you with news you have won millions of dollars, from another country, in a lottery you never even entered?!?!

Do yourselves a favour and step in front of a moving bus - anyone that stupid should do the world, and themselves, a favour and put themselves out of their misery.

what is this ? is this real?!!!!

How are you today? This is to bring to your notice that your winning Price of $650,000USD has been forwarded to Western Union Money Transfer for immediate transfer to you as soon as you meet up with the directives of the Board.Contact them on.

I did something which would be really hilarious to listen. Myself and Agent X had great conversations through emails. I asked him that Can't be the money I won transferred to other International Bank which has branch in India...? for which he told that they have rules and policies.
So if I don't send the payment for opening the account in the mentioned bank or courier charges atleast, he told that I will really lose a golden oppurtunity.
Then I started negotiating with him in few more mails that Can't he use my money for opening account and sending me all those account details in courier and deduct them from my Prize money...? for which again, he replied that they are abided by certain rules and policies.
Finally my finishing mail might have shocked him. I mailed him saying that I don't know till now that even Thiefs and scammers also do have policies and rules...heard and watched Pirates of Carribean that even they have laws and codex, but today I believed after your emails that you ****ers also do have them. He never replied.

I also received an Australian Lottery winning letter as well as
others recently. Thank you for posting your experiences and comments as I have learned to search the net first rather than
act on these letters. As a result I have not been taken. I feel for those who have. Thank you again, for your warnings
to others.
Terry
