Examples of the "Nigerian scam" that flood my email box everyday.

Tuesday, April 27, 2004

It seems that yet another scam email is being let loose upon the long suffering residents of cyberspace.

This one offers large prizes to the hapless victims.

I understand that several email recipients in Brunei have been receiving offers that involve luxury limousines, and grand lottery wins.

In one of the scam emails, recipients are led to believe to be the `lucky winner' of a luxury car.

These bogus emails not only gave winning codes and reference numbers required to collect luxury prize, but also alleged addresses for contact information and how to claim the prize.

The swindlers gave the usual "B***it" as to how the recipient came up as the `lucky winner', by claiming that the recipient's email address was selected randomly out of millions of email addresses across the globe through an automated computer ballot system.

As usual though, in order to enable the speedy processing of prizes, recipients were urged to provide full personal details before the unlikely dateline of April 31.

Where's my car then?
