Hi
I noticed just now in my Spam mailbox an email saying Congratulations winner. It was from Mrs Munya Toloto.
On opening the email it says in the attached file is your winning notification. There is no way I am going to open this. I think its some sort of scam, maybe a virus or something.
What do you think? Tell me I haven't won anything; I don't think I have.

I agree. I would just delete it.0

I wouldn't open it, just delete.
I've never had to open an attachment to find out what I've won, it's always in the e-mail.

Never open attachments from junk/spam emails - you did the right thing....and the Spurs go marching on.0

you did the right thing to ask for a majority vote, those spam emails are dangerous.
...sorry it wasn't an authentic winners announcement - maybe next time.
When I was young I respected cool people, then I grew up I respected clever people, now I'm wiser I respect kind people.0
