Before we go any further, remember the old advice - If it seems too good to be true, then it probably is!

So, what do you do if you get one of these? Why do you think the delete key was created?

If you don't want to delete it, just in case it may be true then take a look at one of the following sites or many others listing such hoaxes. And if you do believe it to be true then put a word in for me with the Tooth Fairy.

Internet Fraud.com

419 Legal

Hoax Busters

Still believe that it is genuine and that you have nothing to lose?

The following extract comes from Here

Optional Transfer Process
1. Swift Bank Transfer ..(Bank Data required). Bank transfer and cheque issuance are possible only when beneficiaries cannot travel to make claims to their respective winnings. Beneficiaries are responsible for travel charges.
Sequel to the pending, you are required to fill out this form and send back to this office for data reconfirmation and validation. You are advised to pay the processing application fee of 750.00 euro to the credit of our accounting officer as this will enable the swift processing and verification of your winning. The paying bank will contact you after we have submitted all relevant documentation regarding your winning and certification of our duty to you.

A bargain then?

So to claim your million and a half US Dollars it will only cost you a measly 750 Euro.
You'd be a fool not to do it? - You're a bigger one if you do!

Also take a look at 419 Legal

See how many similar e-mail addresses have been blacklisted.

And that was just on one day!

Incidentally, the Web site www.luckyday.nl exists. But why would their claims department be using a netscape.net e-mail address?
