  Hi Moderator,
  Definately is a 'scam' what on earth you have 'won' & not even 'participating' in any luck draw ? It's too good to be true rite
  Mostly you will receive this kind of email not only from China/India also from Nigeria....they are the worst
  
  cheers,

  bryanseb,
  Thank you for your reply, not only that even on eBay if your buyer is from other country especially Nigeria they will ask you to send your 'item' first then they will send the 'cheque' to your account.
  This should not be happening...else you 'item' will never come back
  There are everywhere my friends....BE CAREFULL
  
  cheers,
  Sham

  Your scam is like so long ago...
  
  Either way, be careful.
  
  There's a newer version of New Year card which is wrecking havoc... be prepared that your CNY is wrecked.

  Dear sham,
  I agree to what you have said and yea..Nigerian are the worst lot.I wonder what they will come up next.. Sometimes,I feel technology cannot be trusted much..only an innocent person will believe he has won a prize and there should be a notice if u really won eg.letter
  yours sincerely,
