[Resolved]  China CITIc Bank - London — Emirates Airline Online Promotions

The below is one of numerous e-mails I received claiming that I won, and in this case 1,000,000 million British Pounds.
I've gone the route of corresponding with the people, i.e. Mr. Ralph Sawyer and Mrs. Juan Zhong. The e-mail below is the last e-mail I received claiming I need to pay a certain amount in order for them to process my claim due to Admin Charges. Only then will they release my money. With this e-mail below I received a professional 'Confirmation Slip' which looks very impressive.

IS THIS A SCAM?????

Anybody out there, let me know asap.

sony ericsson w910i — Below expectation performance

On 30th May 2008, I bought a Sony Ericcson cell phone.(Model no. W910i)With in the first month the messeging system in the phone suddenly got jamed, no messages were receiveable nor could any message be sent.I went to the service center got the cell repaired.Recently again the cell phone is giving problems, it gets hanged very often.Typing messages, clicking photos, recieving call is getting hampered.

I would like the Sony Ericsson Company to know that I've used cell phones from Samsung and Motorolla previously none of them proved to be such a disapointment., I've only used this phone for six months already such problems are arising.Please look into the matter and would appreciate it if my cell phone could be replaced.
Thats absolutely correct. This is the worst phone I have ever used. It hangs on every incoming or outgoing call for any new no. which is not saved in phone book. It hangs in any application or any action.
I would like to also know if this is a factual winning, where a person who calls herself Mrs. Juan Zhong and urges us to transfer these funds is an emplyee of China Citic Bank and if she is is this claim geniune or not and if not then your Bank need tto be sued for fraud and corruption charges. As it is sad where banks are involed in such corruption. If it is then kindly let me know also so that funds can be transfered straight away.

Hello Darryll,

thanks for the posting. I have been online since last week trying to find out about the promotion because my cousin also told me about it. To my surprise, my cousin received his own payment yesterday and i was astonished by their cheerful distribution by Emirates airline. I advice you to comply with them and have your payment made.

Thanks for posting.

The promotion is genuine and the payment is real. I am one of the lucky winners and i complied with the bank management and my payment was confirmed last week by my bank. Though it looks so unreal but everything is real.
