The UK National Lottery is often used by the Africans. It’s a good way of getting unsuspecting people to depart from their hard earned cash to pay for all sorts of “Fees” for a prize they will never get.

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?

It really looks as though Google is getting better at recognising these e-mails as fraudulent. I hope they get better at it, because it will save a lot of heartbreak if they do.
