  • I "won" £7,354,841 this morning in a letter I got in the post !!!

    All I have to do to claim it is send them just £20 and they send me the documents to claim it...

    hmmmmmm... shame I dont have £20 spare isnt it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    And there was me thinking it was all mine when I received the same letter this morning...........

    No £20 from me either!
    Many thanks to all that post :T

    This sounds like a scam. I get 2-3 of these a week but they go straight into phishing scam alerts. The email addresses that they are sent by just bounce back emails. Sorry!! If you search it online it brings up a huge list of the scams similar to the one you have received


    Really? :rolleyes:

    Well I received the same letter this morning for £7,354.841 - asking for £20. It has come from Canada!!! Bad enough getting UK scam letters.

    Well I wont be parting with £20 either lol.
  • Hey I got the Canadian letter too! Was thinking about getting a few Canadian relatives to go round and collect the proceeds. Can collect for others if anyone's interested?

    ;)
    Thanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small

    I guess that if one in a million falls for it, they're in profit.:eek:
  • I got this letter today too, how did they find two of us without £20.


    I got this letter too:D wonder where they got our details from:think::naughty::spam:
