Here’s another example of using a name with a high trust value for a bogus lottery.

To tell the truth it’s ridiculous using the United Nations for a lottery scam e-mail. it just goes to show that some of these crooks are not that intelligent.

But, I am sure some people will fall for it.

The main thing with these fraudulent e-mails is the fact that you need
a well known lottery company or an business giant such as Microsoft
or, as in this case, Shell Petroleum.

The money has to come from somewhere, doesn’t it?
