There are various spins on the Lottery Scam. Most are your simple UK, Irish, or Swiss Lottery “You’ve Won Millions” emails. Some are presented as Corporate Giveaways using the names of just about every major company you can think of.
Often the scam involves a shipping company such as UPS or DHL, who will contact you demanding exorbitant shipping and insurance fees for your certified check. They can actually get fairly pushy.
There are often various documents that will arrive supporting your winning numbers, and what the scammers believe to be official looking emails from DHL. Have fun sifting through the YOU’RE A WINNER! Emails!

Compliment of the day,
This is Mr. Ortiz M. Andres Microsoft claims agent from the Microsoft Lottery Board i have deposited your winning cheque of £500,000,00 Pounds for delivery since the bank and has refused to contact you for delivery,I have left for Africa (Nigeria) for some seminar so i have deposited a Confirmable Bank Draft £500,000,00 Pounds with the Fedex Courier Service for delivery i have also paid for delivery.
I have been waiting for you since to contact me for your Confirmable Bank Draft of £500,000,00 Pounds, but I did not hear from you since that time. Then I went and deposited the Draft with FEDEX COURIER SERVICE, Abuja, Nigeria before I travelled out of the country for a 3 Months Course in Nigeria and I will not come back till November 2009.
What you have to do now is to contact the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE with your details below:
FULL NAMES: TELEPHONE: POSTAL ADDRESS: CITY: STATE: COUNTRY: OCCUPATION:
As soon as possible to know when they will deliver your package to you because of the expiring date. For your information, I have paid for the delivery Charge, Insurance premium and Clearance Certificate Fee of the Cheque showing that it is not a Drug Money or means to sponsor Terrorist attack in your Country.
The only money you will send to the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE to deliver your Draft direct to your postal Address in your country is (£80 Pounds) only, being Security Keeping Fee of the Fedex Courier Company so far.
Again, don't be deceived by any body to pay any other money except (£80 Pounds). I would have paid that but they said no because they don't know when you will contact them and in case of demurrage. You have to contact the FEDEX COURIER SERVICE now for the delivery of your Draft with this information below:
Finally, make sure that you reconfirm your Postal address and Direct telephone number to them again to avoid any mistake on the Delivery and ask them to give you the tracking number to enable you track package over there and know when it will get to your address. Let me repeat again, try to contact them as soon as you receive this mail to avoid any further delay and remember to pay them their Security Keeping fee of (£80 Pounds) for their immediate action. You should also let me know through email as soon as you receive your Draft.
NOTE: Dont contact the Fedex Courier if you know you are not ready to claim your Confirmable Bank Draft of £500,000,00 Pounds.

This bond was placed on your due funds and the insurance policy was for its added security and for the safety of your due funds during your funds transfer process ensuring that it could only be transacted upon once fully confirmed in your local bank account.
The transfer of large sums of money without back up documentation and presentation creates a red flag with government authority's world over; hence in other to act in the best interest of the winners of our lottery promo it has become imperative that all winners notarize their winning in a court of competent jurisdiction.
Please be informed that Powerball international reserves the right to decline payment/transfer of your winning if irregularities occur.
You are to issue the payment to our fiduciary agent/receiving officer via Western union money transfer:
NAME OF RECEIVING OFFICER: PETER MATHEW DESTINATION: LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM.
Kindly send details of your payment as soon as possible.

I appreciate the rather lengthy explanation of your need for me to pay a fee, but in all that verbiage you failed to mention how the fee was to be paid, or whom it was to be paid to.
Also, the word "notarization" merely means to have ones signature Notarized by a Notary Public and have an official seal placed on the signed doc to insure that the person signing it is in fact whom they claim to be (I know this because I am a Notary Public, and Notarize documents all the time for a fee of $20,00). Since I'll not be there in the UK to sign any docs in front of a Notary Public, I fail to see how anything there can be legally "Notarized".
I'll need to see two things prior to sending the funds. A scanned image of the official documents that show me as the winner, and a valid passport for whomever is to receive the funds I send.

I have received your e-mail and the contents therein, you dont have to doubt my company cause most of the winners have collected there winnings cause they followed my instructions as there claims officer.
I tried contacting you today but no response.
Here is my contact number+447031916108
Find below the payment instruction:
You are to issue the payment to our fiduciary agent/receiving officer via
As mentioned previously, I'll need to see Peters ID. You had no problems requesting to see mine, why would his be a problem? Sending a series of email full of misspelled words and poor English doesn't prove that your legit.
I've seen no documents showing I've won anything, nor any ID showing who you are. Now you expect me to run down and send you a lot of money to perform legal task that simply don't exist within the UK government.
The statement "winners have collected there winnings cause they followed my instructions"is so pathetically stupid I really can't describe it. It sounds like something a kid would say. I have no need to call you, that really proves nothing other than that you have a phone. Show ID and a doc (not a Word doc) that indicates I've won something.
Firstly to allay any doubt that you harbour with regards to your winnings, I have attached herewith a winning certificate guarantee issued this day by Powerball lottery and the financial services authority which is the fiscal authority implementing your funds release and subsequent transfer to you.
the winning certificate states that your winning sum of one million Euros will be transferred to you within 72hrs of receipt of your payment details for the requisite bank fees of £1000 The winning certificate is the only legal certification that I can give to you it is legally binding and no subsequent instrument of name or title can repudiate the validity of the letter.
Furtherance to the above please be informed that the bank fee cannot be deducted from your winnings as we received your due funds from the sending authority as a certifiable bank draft, which cannot be deducted from or transacted upon until duly lodged in your nominated bank account.
I entreat your understanding in this regard. Conclusively I will ask that you dispel any iota of fear that you harbour with regards to the authenticity of this lottery.
It is a fact that you won the sum of one million Euros and this sum will be transferred to you unfailingly upon receipt of your payment for the requisite £1000
Thank you Peter, I must say, your quite the fanciful talker. I really liked this part "no subsequent instrument of name or title can repudiate the validity of the letter".
Lets see if I can do it:
In reference to the aforementioned document, subsequently referred to as "Certificate of Prize Claim", I find it to be an acceptable form of legalized tender. Nevertheless, I must still mandate in a most official capacity, that your passport be presented to me at this point in time.
Let there be no further misunderstanding, that without proper presentation of this particular instrument of identification there can be no transfer of funds from this end.
I have received your e-mail and the contents therein. In light of the text of your missive, attached herein is a scan copy of my international passport.
I hereby advise that you erase any element of fear harboured within you as to the legality of your winning funds as you shall be receiving your funds in your nominated bank account 72hours upon receipt of the necessary notarization fees.
Kindly refer to my previous correspondence for payment instructions (pre-requisite to funds transfer).
Thank You,
Peter Raymund

I'm so sorry, I'm a little confused (or you are). I've sent packages to London previously using DHL, and the cost was a mere $40,00 USD. Your only sending a check and some paperwork for Christ Sake, not some giant heavy package.
To tell me the cost of a single package is over $1000 USD is absurd. None of the charges you have itemized are legitimate delivery charges. There is no fuel sur-charge, and insurance is always optional.
Send my check standard mail, or COD.

As you can see this scam is run by a Scammer that doesn't even have the funds to provide copy's of a fake winners check.
These emails were forwarded to DHLs fraud prevention unit, and it appears to be a common scheme.
DHL's own site reports that it's common for scammers to request money for shipping from internet users who have made recent online purchases. So beware. DHL FRAUD ALERT
Numerous attempts have been made to defraud Internet shoppers by the unauthorised use of the DHL name and brand, via e-mail communications and graphics which appear, on the surface, to have originated from DHL.
In most cases the communications concern the sale of consumer goods over the Internet, where payment may be requested by money transfer - for goods in transport, before the goods will be delivered.
Please be advised that DHL does not request payment in this manner. In general, DHL collects money due for official DHL related shipping expenses only.
Advice:
If you receive a request to transfer money for goods which DHL allegedly currently has in transport, via an e-mail as described, or should there be any doubt as to the authenticity of any DHL communication, please report it to DHL by contacting: DHL Customer Service via e-mail from the global DHL web site, www.dhl.com, or phone Customer Service at the telephone number published on the DHL web site for your country (country web site addresses available through www.dhl.com).
This security notice does not affect the obligation of a consignee to pay shipping, customs, VAT or similar charges, where these are properly payable at the time of delivery.
DHL accepts no responsibility for any costs or chargers which are improperly incurred as a result of fraudulent activity. E-Mail Contact instructions
Provide all personal details in section 1 (e.g. your name, location and e-mail address)
Tick 'Other' as your 'Type of Comment' in Section 2
You can then add your questions or issues in the box provided.
By following the above instructions, we can ensure that your comments are answered by a local DHL expert as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Country Web Site Integrity
