YOUR EMAIL WON THIS YEAR ATM GRANT VALUED:$500,000.00 USD! – 419 Email Scam

Filed under: 419 Scams,Advance fee scam — Tags: — admin @ 11:37 pm

Another ATM card advance fee scam. It’s obviously a very special card as the scammer states “the amount you are to withdrew per day is $20,000.00 USD”. I don’t know of any cash point that will support that size of withdrawal!

Also, if this “prize” is legitimate, why does it have to be hidden in a magazine?
