Email Scam: Conrgatulations from Nokia Award UK

In this post, I am showing you the picture of one of the most basic and simple email sent by the scamsters. This is one of the most basic and simple ones aimed at those who are new to the internet. Please avoid such type of emails. Do not reply to them for any reason.

What these people are trying to do is to confirm that it is a real email id and once they know it is, they will try and lure you into a trap where you will be asked to pay some money so that they can send you your prize. And as you may have already guessed, you never get your prize. You will not even hear again from them once the scam is over. In fact, their network is set in such a way that the main mastermind behind the whole plan is RARELY caught, if ever.

Let’s have a look at the image of the email I received.

So, here comes another one of the email scams. In the last few days, people on the internet have become smart enough to understand that they are not going to win money from a contest they did not participate in, no matter how big the company. They now understand that they are a very simple way of extracting money from you. So, looks like these scammers have a new way of doing their job. They are trying to make their scams look more trustworthy. Let’s have a look at a recent email that I received.
