I've just received an email with an attachment that starts:

124 Stockport Road, Long sight, Manchester M60 2 DB-United Kingdom.

This is to inform you that you have won a prize money of One Million British Pounds (£1,000,000.00) for 2014 Prize promotion which is organized by YAHOO, AOL & WINDOWS LIVE, MSN this 2014 YAHOO and MICRO SOFT collects all the email addresses of the people that are active online, among the millions that subscribed to Yahoo and Hotmail and few from other e-mail providers. Six people are selected every two years to benefit from this promotion and you are one of the Selected Winners.

All I have to do to claim my prize is send a few details to one of two email addresses:

dr_john_p@yahoo.com or john.patrick35@yahoo.co.uk

1. Full Name…………………………….

Now, I've never won such a big prize before.

Maybe some of the netters who have won something like this might give me some advice as to how to handle my claim?

Perhaps someone with a Nigerian bank account? :rolleyes:

You should forward it onto BDO, they'd be most grateful.

I was thinking of claiming it and donating it to FoH, actually. Or maybe straight to UKIO?

Perhaps I should donate a share of my winnings to Bob?

He seems an awfully nice chap, and he has such a hard life.
