I am Mahesh Chandra Vashistha from Jaipur, India. I got a email from Rhea Johnson on my email address on June 6th that I am selected as winner for the final draws of UNITED KINGDOM NATIONAL LOTTERY, international Lottery program. I was told that i got a cash prize of £450,000.00 (Four Hundred and Fifty Thousand Pounds). I was so surprised after getting this mail and excited to get this cash prize, then i mailed to Mr. Martin A Mac to give further information as they wanted me too. I told some of my friends about this mail and cash prize, first they all were also surprised, but one of my friend told me this may be fraud. After 2 days I got another messages from Harrison Finchley who told himself as Fund Release Manager of SEA-GATE FINANCIAL TRUST FUNDS and told me that I had to pay about 1020 pounds money to transfer your cash prize in my own country's bank, and an another mail came from Mr. Morris Patterson Customer Services, Parcelflight Courier Services and asked me to pay for the parcel delivery charge in different categories. Then i searched detail about SEA-GATE FINANCIAL TRUST FUNDS and Parcelflight Courier Services in the united kingdom. I shocked that these both are fake and frauds as I was going to pay to these. Thank god I did lose any money in this fraud lottery company, but i want to tell other people around the world that please check about the companies or firms those who wants you to pay before.
Same here :-) This company seems to share an idea: "You are unique just like everybody else around you"
Regards.
My Stepfather passed away in July of 2006. In June of 2007 my mother received a notice and an enclosed check in the amount of $4,900 stating my stepfather had won $490,000. She was sure this was a fraud and sure enough your posting help to confirm that.
I have heard the FBI has been involved in some of these types of cases and international law sometimes prevents them from pursuing companies like Gate Financial Trust.
Unfortunately, certain people do fall for these scams.
The same as above DRAMA had became With Mr, Mahesh From INDIA, It is going with me, But GOD helped me That I could Not Pay Any thing to Bloody any one... I Will Suggest Lot of young People & you That DON'T believe In this type of Fraud Mails. They are the World wide Cheaters, entering Through net ZONE.
I sent my personal information not knowing this is happening a lot allover the world. What would you do after you send your personal information for those.

Subject : Request for your help for releasing my lottery prize amount from UK National lottery online sweepstakes International program ( www.luckysurf.co.uk ).
With reference to above I would like to bring to your kind notice the following facts :-
I was declared ( rajesh_1wn@yahoo.co.in ) as winner of above lottery prize amount of 480.204.00 pounds from the above ( copy of email enclosed ) and I was asked to send 583.45 pounds towards insurance, courier charges and to enable them to send the said amount to me.
As a belong to a poor family I expressed my inability to send this amount. Afterwards the Director of UK lottery ( www.luckysurf.co.uk ) decided to transfer the prize amount directly to me and I was advised to contact Lloyds bank Mrs. Lynn Jean, Manager, International transfer, Lloyds TSB, Bately Branch, 25 commercial street, Bately Branch, WF 17 SEQ Lloyds TSB ( copy of Email is enclosed ) .
Accordingly I contacted Mrs. Lynn Jean and gave all particulars of my nominated account into which the prize amount is to be transfered. But I was surprised to receive a letter from Mrs. Lynn Jean, Manager, Lloyds Bank, Bately Branch, asking me to send 850 pounds towards activation charges since my account at bately branch has become a dormant account. I had already informed www.luckysurf.co.uk expressing my in ability to arrange for even for 583.45 pounds but on the contrary I was asked to arrange for activation charges of 850 pounds. after long correspondence Mrs. Lynn Jean, Manager,Lloyds Bank, made it clear that the prize amount can not be transfered unless activation charges is paid.
With great difficulty I arranged for 850 pounds towards activation charges and deposited into a personnel account of " A1 Medical and General Store " held at I C I C I Bank, Boisar Branch, in India on [protected]. and I was waiting for transfer of my prize amount.
Unfortunately instead of getting my funds transfered to my nominated account, I was again asked by Mrs. Lynn Jean to send 650 pounds towards Revenue Commission and 400 pounds towards non Residential tax. The Amount was also deposited into the personnel accounts of " Sylvia Ashong, held in I C I C I Bank, Boisar Branch, in India [protected] and " A .G Enterprises " held in I C I C I Bank, Boisar Branch, in India, [protected] respectively.
All this amount was begged and borrowed from my friends and realtives. With a hope of getting my funds transfered to my nominated account at the earliest. But I was shocked to find a letter from Mrs. Lynn Jean asking me again to deposit 1500 pounds towards C O T code charges. I expressed my extreme difficulty in arranging for any further amount to deposit. Mrs. Lynn Jean turned deafears towards my cries. Ultimately I sold out my property to arranging for 1500 pounds and deposited the same into the personnel account of " A. G Enterprises, held in I C I C I Bank, Boisar Branch, in India, as per her Mrs. Lynn Jean instructions on [protected].
For all these days I was never told about all these charges either by Director of UK National lottery, sweepstake International program or by Mrs. Lynn Jean, Manager, Lloyds Bank, earlier. every time Mrs. Lynn Jean used to write that no more charges to be paid by me and the prize amount is expected to be received by me within 72 Hours.
All my hopes were thrown in the air when instead of receiveing my prize amount I received a letter from Mrs. Lynn Jean asking me to send 850 pounds towards reactivation charges. I wrote Mrs. Lynn Jean about my critical, financial condition and my inability to arrange for the amount. With great difficulty I deposited 850 pounds into the personnel account of "Khudrakpam Hemadevi" held at U T I Bank, through Bellary Branch Karnataka- State, in India on 9-5-2007.
By this time it was already 7 to 8 Months all the creditors started pressuring me for returning there loan amounts and they started to lose faith and confidence in me. Because my prize amount could not be received by me even after a lapse of 8 Months. they started calling me a cheat.
My mental torture and agony knew no bounds. Under such circumstance Mrs.Lynn Jean instead of arranging for transfer of my lottery prize amount to my nominated account it was transfered to International clearance department at Lloyds Bank, Bately Branch.
In turn the Manager International clearance department Lloyds Bank Mr. Dennis Trevol, Dr. Hennry Gerrad wrote me to send 2500 pounds towards funds clearance fees. All the sources of raising funds have been exhausted. My number of request letters to Mrs. Lynn Jean, Dennis Trevol, Dr. Hennry Gerrad asking them to release my funds immediately to enable me to send there clearance charges immediately after the receipt of my funds have been in vain.
Sir, this is the episode by which I would become Bankrupt, frustrated in life and I am left with no alternate other than committing suicide under the pressure of the creditors, mental torture on account of Mrs. Lynn Jean fraudulent acts which made me a bigger.
I do not know whether I am going to get the lottery amount or not. I am the poorest man and living with a loaf of bread with my aged mother having lost everything on account of this lottery and Mrs. Lynn Jean. So far I have paid totally 4250 pounds to Mrs. Lynn Jean in different fictitious accounts. I don't know whether these are legal charges or not.
You are kindly requested to look into the matter on priority and see that my prize amount is released immediately or to get refund of my all the charges of 4250 pounds paid to Mrs. Lynn Jean.
Your kind and promt necessary action in the matter is requested and help me please to get either my prize amount or my amount of 4250 pounds all ready sent to them.
I furnish here under my account at Lloyds Bank Bately Branch and the Name and Address all the above concerned the persons and departments for your ready reference.
Thanking you
Yours faithfully.

Just who the hell is this Gun Billy? It is shocking to know that there is people out there willing to be so corrupt by fooling people in paying fees for winnings to get transfered to a Lloyds account. How do they get away with this. Isnt there people in Lloyds Bank checking up on this kind of stuff? Mr Gun Billy I dont know who you are my friend but you have pissed of some people that you should not have done.
I also got the same email that is mentioned above by other people. You can lock onto a website called www.lytinte.co.uk and lock into a account to make it seem real. Can someone check this?well it is a joke. It looks real with all the details and they make you to be excited of your winnings showing in the account. The next step is to give information of your own Bank account in your country. Dont you all think that this is funny that there is never answer? Lloyds TSB Bank this is shocking people you are suppose to be a first world. This stuff is happening under your noses and your are incompatable to react on such scams... Maby Scotland Yard should me informed of this.
