Apparently I am the winner of 170,000 euros from a Spanish lottery which is similar to the legal one called Once which I have played when in Spain.

Of course my 170,000 is being kept safe and will only be released to me once I have sent EXWORLED SEGURIDAD S.A. my bank details. Their forms and the letter looks very professional indeed but why did they send me 4 copies of the same letter on the same date?

You can see how some people are taken in by this sort of scam.

I am now a multi-millionaire in several African countres, own half of Nigeria, have discovered the secret of a water-powered car, own a share of a diamond mine in Egypt, have over 17 relatives I never knew existed but who all left me various planes, boats and small countries, have been appointed an international courier for rare gems and am the son of the king of rock and roll.

Sometimes having your details on various websites can be a drawback- but spam filters are a wonderful invention.

I have to keep giving The Halifax , the bank of Ulster and a few others my password details and account numbers, these are proffessional organisations, how can they keep losing my details? especially when I don't have accounts with any of them...............
