The Management, Lottery Organisation . but . . . I have a few problems with this email for some reason though . First, what internet services/programs exactly did I use that made me eligible for entry? Second, the use of a yahoo based email address for contact makes me more than just a bit suspicious . . . Third, I would never believe an email like this that has originated from a hotmail account . . . Having said that, I can see how easy it would be for a less suspicious person to be sucked into something like this, as it all looks very professional and well written and there is just enough "information" in it to sound credible, yet still suitably vague . There was even a official looking signature at the end of the email . |

| 550164 | 2007-05-16 03:13:00 | I realised it was a scam speedy (hence my comments after the quote). Although I must say that it is the first one like that that I have ever received... |

| 550167 | 2007-05-16 05:49:00 | It shows some improvement. They appear to have used a spelling checker on the body, but they forgot the subject line. "colabration"? The grammar is no worse than most commercial- or MBA-speak. Of course you won't get your "share" the prize; you have breached the confidentiality. :( |
