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?

This is just like most of the messages which are being sent out by African crooks. They are not always logical.

You can see that they use various kinds of messages by reading a part of one sentence

contract fund, inheritance or Lottery Wining

Obviously they are trying to catch people who may have been victims before.
