Hi everyone...
I'm new here in this forum.
At first I would like to start by saying, that English is not my native language. So please excuse my grammar as other mistakes that I do ...
So thanks in advance for your clemency.
While surfing the Internet, I came across the page http://www.scamwarners.com/
and I think it's great that there is a page like this page! Congratulations.
I want to share my experience with you. Yesterday (1st of october) I received from this (mobile?)phone-number: +34 634 18 87 09 on my mobile a SMS-message with following content:
'Great!' I thought...At the current exchange rate this would be about: 2'272'368 swiss francs. (Wow... )
Chance would be a fine thing.
Of course I realized immediately that this is a fraudulent SMS of a fictitious lottery. This email suffix: msn.com might just be misleading.
Of course I will not answer and also send any information; I know how the official 'Euro Millions lottery' works.
Nowhere someone is safe from such SMS, also not here in Switzerland...So, be warned
From Switzerland, very dear greetings
