Crime Online

This time the crooks have an address in London, Great Britain. The funny thing is if you take a look at the Connecticut Lottery site they make no mention of a London office.

The CT Lottery does have a page informing readers about typical scam messages using Connecticut Lottery as a front.

AN APPEAL FOR FINANCIAL SUPPORT.

Calvary greetings to you in Jesus name amen. I know this letter might come as a surprise to you but I was inspired to do so as a result of the Orphans and motherless babies under my care.

Initially, I stated this work with few children and I was able to take care of them. It was later many children were brought to me and I was making every effort to meet up with their daily needs.

Based on this, I started sending financial appeal to Individuals, Government, Corporate bodies and Organizations for financial support to enable me continue with this God work and services to humanity.

If not that people some times listen to my cry for financial help, in fact, there is no way I would have continued.

My Father, Mother, Brother, Sister, if you receive this letter and God touches your heart, kindly assist the orphans and motherless.

No amount is too small, we will continue to remember you in prayer and God will not forget your contributions to the orphans and motherless.

Thanks and be blessed as you render services to God and humanity.

Yours in the service of God and humanity
Rev. Clement Chukwuyem

There has been a decrease in the numbers of lottery e-mails during the last weeks. I doubt that it means that there is a shift away from that type of scam e-mail. I am sure we will be seeing it in circulation for some time to come.

Of course, the day is not perfect without a prize e-mail from UK National Lottery, is it?
