You would have to be a complete idiot or a vulnerable old or disabled person to believe it.
And that is who these sick dishonest a-holes pray on -
Get a real job and earn real money instead of praying on people who are more needy than you.

Received text message on nokia mobile to say we had won a prize for their 40th anniversary. We had to email nprize@live.com then we received a verification form today 20th feb to complete. It all looked very official and authenic. When we tried to phone the mobile numbers for contact they did not work.

Hi
I received the same sms and sent an email. Got an email back stating I needed to provide more details such as name, tel, country, etc. But if I cannot claim prize personally, I would have to pay for courier fees! Da, if Nokia is giving away 500 000 pounds, why must I pay for courier fees? This is a total scam!

Dear sir/madam,
I bought my new nokia6303 classic 1 month before. But usually drops its network and while taking over it its speaker doesn't work and voice is not audible to me.
I went to service center but they suggested me change my bsnl sim because set is not supporting it and use another conection. How a set doesn't support to one paticular sim.
Please tell me what I do.
Thanking you.
Yours faithfully

Nokia manufacture mobile phones ... Nokia DOES NOT KNOW YOUR MOBILE NUMBER ... Only your NETWORK (Service Provider) will know your mobile number. Nokia DO NOT send emails from hotmail, AOL, live.com, yahoo or any other address other than Nokia.com.

DO NOT SEND YOUR DETAILS TO ANYONE .

THIS IS A SCAM AND SOMEONE JUST WANTS YOUR MONEY.

DO NOT PHONE ANY NUMBER AS THIS MAY ALLOW SOMEONE TO ACCESS YOUR CONTACT LIST.

IGNORE THESE TEXT MESSAGES ... IT IS A SCAM.

Knowing this is a scam i never replied. :)

SMS and Email scams are all over. If you received a message saying that u won something before entertaining it check if you joined any raffles or the same, if they ask money from you it surely is a scam...

REMEMBER: IF YOU WON YOU SHOULD TAKE THE MONEY NOT GIVE EVEN A SINGLE PENNY.
