Aren't these scams a pain!

Daily there are lists of these scams in my email inbox, I've won zillions of pounds through the years!

Unfortunately some people do fall for these scams, and it's a pity that governments internationally don't combine in efforts to deal with these fraudsters.

Not that one, but I regularly get emails telling me I`ve won fortunes in lotteries I haven`t even heard of, let alone entered!

Just received an email supposedly from Australia Lotto Lottery Inc. telling me my email ID has won me USD$500,000!

1. How can I win a lottery I haven't entered
2. Why would the Australian lottery be paying in US dollars
3. Most national lotteries don't let people living outside the country take part (or at least if they do you can't claim any winnings!)

You all may already know about this scam but it was a new one on me
