Do you believe that the UEFA would give away 200 million, just like that. Even with 20 or so “Sponsors”, they wouldn’t do it without the world media knowing. I haven’t noticed anything like this in the press, have you?

I expect that, coming up to the start of the European Championships next year, we will see a whole lot more of this kind of scam or fraud e-mail.

Of all of the lottery companies who are misused for this type of scam, the UK National Lottery is the one which is used the most.

On some days I get about 3 to 4 from different crooks, all claiming to be announcing that I have won. Of course, I also get the same message from different freemail accounts as well as several coming from just one account.

These are sent to my accounts which used to be in plain text and easily found on my websites. For some time now though, I have coded my e-mail addresses or use separate Software to prevent bots from harvesting my accounts from my websites.

Since I started doing that, I have never received any kind of scam or spam e-mail on any of my new accounts.

One particular piece of software I use is “My Contact Station” which effectivly blocks the use of e-mail harvesters. If you are interested you can get the software direct from My Contact Station
