Facebook Sweepstakes Promotion
by agoodridge Wed Dec 22, 2010 11:48 am
There is a message going around stating that you have been rewarded 530,000.00 GBP. They are then telling you to send a email to Natwest Bank PLC UK in order for the money to be sent to you. What am i trying to figure out if this promotion is real or a fake.

It's obviously a fake message. Please leave some screenshots of that message to avoid other people getting tricked by this

Where please are the requested Screan shots ?
Also; any 'promotion' that seems 'too good to be true' usually is 'too good to be true' and will, if you follow it, most probably land you with an infected computer and an email address that is unuseable....
Moderator Note to any Reader; if you have seen this scam do let us know but do not get involved with it
I guess they will also ask for your Bank Log- in details and your password etc...then cream out your Bank account.......
Do not be foolled or drawn in by it !!!!!!!

Of interest, did you get the 'messages' via Facebook itself or in an email purporting to be from Facebook?
If you can get those screen -shots uploaded that would be helpful

You can tell it is a fake by the poor grammar written and the fake phone number, I wouldn't believe it as there probably is no such thing as Facebook Promos'.
I agree with Ruby, Do nothing at all and delete the email immediatley. If you continue to get these emails, contact your local police service and they might contact INTERPOL.
Thanks
