Wow! Now, Mother Theresa Random Promotions is giving away
huge amounts of money and you don't need to be needy or poor to receive it! ANYONE who has an email address could win. If that sounds
likely to you, you must get scammed every day. It's a fraud. In fact, this
one is SO preposterous, we suspect the scammers are just sending it out to see
who is stupid enough to believe it and reply.
This is a very simple scam. They claim you won a
promotion, which is giving away millions of dollars based on a randomly selected
email address. The scam is obvious: it's simply preposterous to think that
a charity would randomly give away money to encourage you to buy to give that
money to charities. That would be self-defeating.
And a legitimate lottery certainly would not use free hotmail,
yahoo, elitist, or aim email accounts.
Notice the gibberish writing, excessive/incorrect use of CAPITAL
letters, lack of decent punctuation and other clues to an obvious fraud that we
have highlighted in the
letter; keep confidential, selected by a random computer lottery of email
addresses, use of free email accounts rather than a domain and website that
matches the lottery name, etc.
