Other Replys:find out



Other Replys:Its a scam!! Don%26#039;t do it!!



Other Replys:The letter is valid as a SCAM. It is total and unmitigated bunk!



Other Replys:No its a bunch of crap. I get about 4 of those everyday. They ask for all your bank info including account numbers and all that. No way in hell am I giving up that info.



Other Replys:lol.. i got something similiar to that and I threw it ouT!!



Other Replys:no, not true, i%26#039;ve received them. scam big time.



Other Replys:Yes. I am Mr. DavGabriel Clappers and sent you the email.



Other Replys:In the UK, I%26#039;m a millionaire! Hahaha



Other Replys:If it%26#039;s true, ask them to send you the money. If it%26#039;s false, they%26#039;ll ask you to send them money. It never costs anything to claim a prize in a legitimate contest.



Other Replys:Don%26#039;t trust it! It%26#039;s most likely a scam. But wait to see what others think. (DON%26#039;T TRUST IT!) :)



Other Replys:scam if I ever saw one!



Other Replys:Ive heard something about this on TV where they send fake e-mails then they take all your information like ssn, date of birth and what no and sell it to people or maybe it could be the real thing just make sure a company does really exist under that name.



Other Replys:Do you have the money??? No right-- thats because it is so not true... I received that email twice in two years and I am still waiting lol



take care though!



Other Replys:unless you entered for it i think its a scam



Other Replys:U should never believe in those messages! I got one from Freeloto, and it%26#039;s all lies, the only think that they want is to steal your money, they are gonna ask for your credit card number and then you%26#039;ll lose your money! I%26#039;m sorry but it%26#039;s not true! And there betters to win money!



Other Replys:No, I get these constantly. Check truthorfiction.com, they usualy have a story or two debunking these.



Other Replys:these emails are scam.i get them all the time



they are generally looking for a way to get your personal info,then will use it for fraud purposes



you cannot win if you haven%26#039;t entered



i would just delete it and forget about it!
