I just received this exact email and even though I knew it was a scam I just had to "google" the return address from the email. That's how I found your blog! Luckily, this scam email went straight to my Junk folder. This is ALWAYS a scam. Winnings from the UK magically transferred to me? Yeah right. Thanks for the info. If I wasn't familiar with advance-fee fraud already then you certainly would've made sure I am now! Keep up the good work! M. Thanks for posting this blog!

You didn't win anything. 2) Fake website set up by scammers. HSBC is a real bank, yes, but what you're seeing is things that have been set up by scammers to suck people in. As mentioned in nearly all my responses on this website - this is a scam. Don't give them any money because you won't see the BIG PRIZE no matter how many fees you give them. See wikipedia.org for advance-fee fraud. 1) It’s not real. You didn’t win anything.
