I had an email sort of like this, that stated I won some overseas lottery, well I knew there were so many scams out there, expecially over seas, I was instructed as well to pay for the delivery, so I found the cargo courier's real online site, and then I called them, they told me there were people steeling things off of their site, dsl i think was the company or something like that and I gave them the persons name I was supposed to contact from their business, there was no such person working for them, and they said they never deal with winnings like that, also i was being asked to send the money westurn union, so they also told me they would never ask for payment in that form, so it was a scam, I still get emails from them all the time, even after telling them I know they are a scam they still don't stop. The cargo company I was supposed to contact was a well known company. So I was able to find them easily, I am not sure about skybird courier and cargo but if its overseas be very leary, if you had won a car or cash prize I would think they would contact you by phone or at least by mail. I have also recieved counterfit checks from overseas as well, not cool. At least they didn't get any money out of me. Take care!! |

Anyone that says your a winner is a scam unless you know the company very well. Or if you are certain that you have submitted for a chance to win a prize. Always check before giving out ANY information!!! |

Pay for the delivery service?!?! That email has "scam" written all over it. On craigslist someone was selling Hummers for $13,000, brand-new, and lo-and-behold, they were an overseas seller. Scams are everywhere. If you did nothing to enter a BMW contest, but you are being declared a winner, this is definitely a scam. "If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is..." |

Sure. Why don't you just go to your bank and withdrawl the money. Did you ever enter any lottery that had a BMW as a prize? No? Than forget about it. |

It is a scam. I got a similar e-mail, but when i contacted them, they told me that i needed to come to london on a plane, so that they could identify me, and that they would then pay for my vehicle to be brought over here to the U.S. They also stated that i would recieve 100,000 dollars cash. |

Did you enter the BMW Group Lottery? If you are asked to pay for something in a contest that you did not enter then it is a scam. |

NEVER open or answer any of these E./Mails as they are SCAMS!!!! & once you open them you're putting your E./Mail address out there for all scammers to pass back & forth. NEVER send $ to any of these louts. They are just a bunch of FLY-BY-NIGHT SCAMMERS.****
As for the legality of this by BR./GOVT. you can always search the BRITISH CONSUMERS AFFAIRS as you would in CANADA & most countries. |

If you SEND ME THE MONEY I will bet you it Is A Scam, But SEND THE MONEY, YOU MAY HAVE ALREADY WON, and all that other stuff you see in emails and posted on the web or even in the regular mail is total scam. You should report it to the internet police, or better yet just mail me the money in a plain unmarked envelope and i will take care of it for u |

If you have won a lottery which you have not entered, it is a scam, scam, scam. Think, man. Why should any one give you any thing for nothing? How would they stay in business doing that? |

You won a lottery that you didn't enter and the first thing they want is for you to send them money. There is an old saying
"A fool and his money are soon parted". I have received a dozen similar SCAMS. No legitimate contest requires you to pay up front to receive your prize. If I reply, I always tell them I'll be happy to pay any reasonable costs or taxes after I have the prize, or money in the bank. |
