After reading this document some people may try to reply with their details. If anyone has replied, then they will mail you that they had received your request and your prize would be delivered at your door steps in few days provided that you have to pay some amount to them for courier and other taxes. But it is not true. Be careful and don’t send them any amount. This is an idea of online frauds to earn money by looting. This is how we lose our money our self.
For example if the above mail was sent by coca-cola company then they would have specified a mail id under the name of their company instead of
coca_colaclaim2012@live.co.uk
There are many others says the same but they may change the name of the comapany. For example here we have seen the name of cola-cola company. In the same way the frauds may send you in the name of some other companies like nokia or something else. If you send money to them then you will be a victim. So be careful of spammers. Don’t believe anyone blindly. Share it so that it may help your friends. Thank you.
