Fraud in Lottery Won Amount Payment
ZA

This bank have cheated me on 11 June 2009, saying that I have won an amount of 1 million US $ on a lottery conducted for the FIFA World Cup promotion. Then they had given me a false tranfer slip for the payment of the amount and when finally got back to them asking them to give the right transfer slip and the amount as soon as possible, then they forwarded me a South Africa Revenue Service( SARS) order saying that I have to submitt an amount of 37, 500 rupees (750 US$) with the revenue department as tax to get my real amount.

If I have really won this lottery, please help to to get my won amount.Being a student I request the panel to please help me to get my won amount after the tax being deducted from my won amount as I dont earn to pay them taxes...or otherwise if i don't get my won lottery amount under 7 days then I'm sure take all type of legal action against you without any hesitation!!!

Do you people not know how email works? This is known as spoofing an address and is very easy. The emails do not come from FNB but can be sent by anyone with the right know-how. This is a typical Nigerian scam and has nothing to do with the bank.
