Answer 1

don't be stupid.....

It's false...

But does that prevent idiots from sending their money away? probably not....

I give you credit for checking into it first....

Best action is.

1. "mark it as spam" in yahoo (This should register this email in yahoo's database as spam) and hopefully they will delete all email on their server from that very same source)

2nd.  if you have lot of time. contact your local authority and have them take over from there.

Answer 2

SCAM!

Answer 3

For your information dadwith4, most scams and spam originate in  USA, Nigeria, Russia, Israel, UK and Holland in that order, I use spam software that can trace origins of emails

Answer 4

scam anything from the UK is a scam. They tell you won some lottery or your e-mail address came up and you wont a billion dollors, they want your checking account number and want a fee before they send you a check...

Answer 5

Scam. If I remember correctly Liverpools city code is 151 and the UK doesn"t have any city codes in the 700's.

Answer 6

its called a scam.  just delete it and forget about it.

Answer 7

Well I get 20 of those letters a week from all over the world.  It is a nuisance but all you can do is report it as SPAM because that is what it is.  Just keep doing that.  Everyone on Yahoo and elsewhere is aware of it.

Welcome to the downside of cyberspace....

Answer 8

SPAM dump it or report it to your mail carrier or both!

Answer 9

Not much action you can take, I get on the average 3-4 of those a day in my email. Just mark them as spam.

Answer 10

419 scam. For more detailed information, some of it rather amusing, visit www.419eater.com

This is a bog standard 'we will give you a billion trillion kabillion million dollars, if you first deposit $32,226 US dollars in to our 'escrow' bank account first' - and then we take your $32,226 US dollars and live happily on beer and chicks for the next 12 years in nigeria.

Answer 11

I am from Scotland this is a scam and so many people receive these letters or emails please delete delete do not be taken in.

Answer 12

Is Human Rights Watch funded by Mossad ? MI 6 ? or by CIA ?

I just read this article, and I checked HRW website, It  is NOT covering Human Rights violations in UK and US and Israel as vigorous as to other countries.

Is Human Rights Watch Caving to the Israeli Lobby?

Answer 13

It's a scam goto the links below. You don't get nothing for nothing. BEWARE 419's

And it's not from the uk. It was sent from Calcutta using several hubs & routers

Answer 14

It is a scam and you can be charged with a felony if found by the authorities. Don't do it. I just delete these. I get about 2 per week in my emai, i try to mark them as spam but they keep sending them with different emails, so I just delete them.
