Reply:It's a scam to get hold of your details so they can rip you off.


There's a phone number there. The 234 prefix means it's from Nigeria, a so called Nigerian scam. Call the police and they may be able to trace the culprits from the phone number and put them away.!!
Reply:NO
Reply:Answer: Just go ahead and buy a new car and then start burning $100 bills baby because you're rich! You should call your boss and tell him/her off right now. Quit, you don't need it because you're a luck millionaire.
Reply:This is a classic scam originating in Nigeria and other 3rd world countries....DON'T RESPOND or send them any information. You should immediately delete it.
Reply:classic Nigerian scam full of misspellings and grammatical errors. Laugh at it and move on.
Reply:Dr. John Mulu PhD? Either Dr. John Mulu or John Mulu, Phd. And Sir Dr. Jugard Bright is wrong too. Dr. Sir Lugard Bright is the correct title.





I wonder where Oceanic is?





The Nigerian scam takes yet another form. Did you know that it pre-dates the Internet?





You have been spammed.
Reply:get an official help address, foreward it, and ask them if it's real.





From looking at the information they want, though, they're trying to steal your identity.
Reply:Do not fall prey to such gimmicks. 10 Lakh dollars is too much. And this prize is given to 50 winners. Cannot digest.
