nigerian lottery winner?!

:mad:I have gotten several interesting e-mails, supposedly from a nigerian bank stating that i had won some lottery for 7 million US dollars and goes on to ask me a bunch of questions about my personal information bank account numbers adresses and other BS. I have never been to nigeria, dont even play the lottery becuase the odds suck, and sure as sh@t aint giving out my personal info,or banking info. What i was needing to know is, has anyone else got any goofball e-mails like this or something similiar?:-x

lol, I have won millions and millions of dollars from these lotteries. They come from so many directions. I actually checked out the bank of one of the places once and it was a real bank, with many complaints from people who actually fell for this crap. I every now and again will respond with a you will hear from my attorney letter. Just for fun. Here is some food for thought though.... If it sounds way to good to be true than it prob is unfortunately. :)

The African money scam online is small potato's compared to the UK lottery scam. I win the UK lottery three to five times a day, seven days a week, all for different amounts and the lottery agent is always a different name as well. That must be a booming trade in the UK being a lottery agent. Is there a college for that in your country? LOL!
