There was a piece in the news last fall over here about this. They were talking to two individuals who had swallowed the whole thing, hook, line and sinker! One of the two interviewees lost over 50,000$ You'd think people would be a bit wiser!

Personnaly, I get about 1-2 such e-mails per month (slightly diffrent variants...same goal!)

Sorry Jarrell, I hate being the one to wake you from your fabulous dream, but I think you have blown your winnings with this post. The message you received states “For security reasons, you are advised to keep your winning information confidential till your claims are processed…”

Darn, and I would have loved to see what you could produce with some new gear :frown:

Hey Jarrell, in the unlikely event that this lottery scam is actually legit, would you consider buying the Nikon Corporation and making it the photography powerhouse we all hoped it would be?
