However, we were having some minor problems with our payment system, which is Inexplicable, and have held us stranded and Indolent, not having the Prerequisite to devote our 100% endowment in accrediting foreign payments.

We apologized once again, from the Records of outstanding debt's due for payment with Euro Millions Lottery, your name and Particulars were discovered as next on the list due for outstanding payment. I wish to inform you now that your payment has been processed and will be made to you through a certified bank draft. Also note that from the record in our file, YOUR APPROVED outstanding payment is valued € 850,000.00 {Eight hundred and fifty thousand Euros}

To file for your claim, please contact our payment manager, Mr. George Ashman on email: georgeashman91@yahoo.fr note the payment center has been mandated to issue out € 850,000.00 Euro for your payment.

Therefore you will be required to forward your name, address and contact telephone number to Mr. George Ashman to facilitate the claim.

I got a phone call the other day from someone saying I won a contest that I entered last year. He was very specific about the date and other details, but I don't remember entering any such contest. His English was pretty bad, and he said he could process my claim but he needed some more information.

At that point I said to send me something in the mail, and I hung up.

I get 4 or 5 of those winning emails a day. Also the ones about the rich widow needing a bank account to place money in. I have often thought of setting up one of my own & sending it to who ever sends me them.
