Beware : Affiliate and Email Scams.
I was really surprised to received an email informing me that I won a Free Lottery held supposed to be in London. Wow, its very nice if this was really true. But one thing is wrong with the email. It specify to contact a certain Mrs. Stephen Williams. Now, I wonder if Stephen was a girl. I might be wrong, Stephen might be a marketing girl and this is the first time I heard such named to a girl. I never replied to this email, since I was very cautious ever since I received a Paypal Phising email asking for my password etc.
In the long run, this kind of email has been going on for quite sometime now. Let us be very vigilant with this opportunistic marketing people. Perhaps one day they might be spending extra dimes just to ensure that their email are grammar perfect or shall we say, they need some proof readers before sending an email. Here is an interesting guide to avoid being scam.

well , i read this tesxt and i found quite almost the same, i was informed that am the winner of £500,00.00 from the Bearshare Imesh Shareza Jackpot Lottery,well i gave my name , adress and mobile number to see what’s gonna give ! then i recieved an other e-mail to inform me that i have to contact the Fast Courier Service Ltd, House 13 Pendleton Place, Greenwich London, SE100RXS,
E-mail : fastcsltd@hotmail.com
i had to send an e-mail to this -email giving them again the adress, name, winning number …(but still no bankaccount) wich i think it would be asked later!
As you can see the amount is the same and it’s also a hotmail adress. i don’t know what those people are looking for but i think the need to be tracked down and making them understand what thay really should do.
any comment is wevery welcom.
