The BMW Lottery, no you don't win a car

Apart from the fact that BMW does not run lotteries, this one has several points which show it's does not come from BMW.

1. Sender E-Mail Address: pbmwlottery@yahoo.com.cn
2. Public Relations Department: sir.tonyhopkins@yahoo.co.uk
3. Director of Promotions: Engr. Matt Colva Nnewtown

A company like BMW would never use freemail accounts to promote an event like this. They would use only BMW domains.
