Something old, Something new

Oh yes, this is a lottery scam or fraud e-mail! What's new is, they say you are have won a consolation prize! This is the first time I have been a runner up.

They go on to say that they only set up this lottery to finance noble deeds. Great, if you believe that, you will also believe the story about their "E-games Random Selection System (ERSS)".

Note the small mistake when they speak of the prize money? It is then a "consultation" and not "consolation" prize.

Last but not least the have a "DUE PROCESS UNIT (DPU)" which is another term for payment agent, security or escrow company. Sounds impressive doesn't it?

It is part of the scam, and usually tricks victims into paying twice or more ...
