Attn: IDI SETIYOBROTO,

You are welcome to Societe Generale Private Bank Plc an affiliate of the Irish National Lottery. We are pleased to be at your service.

In line with the transfer of your winnings to you, according to the Irish National Lottery Terms and Conditions for winnings claims, you are now required to follow the transfer associated conditions which are listed below which means the way you will want to receive your winnings that is in our custody.

Below is the associated conditions.
Account Opening and On-line Swift Transfer Option:
In this option you will be given the proper guidelines on how you will directly and personally transfer your winning funds in liquid cash into any bank account you nominate through the Societe Generale Bank e-banking services.

But for this to be done, first your winning cheque in our custody have to be converted into liquid cash in the UK Cheque Clearing house because we (Societe Generale Bank Plc ) are allowed by the UK banking laws and policies to proceed with the swift transfer process of the winnings to you while the funds is still in cheque form.

And due to the fact that your winning cheque was issued in your name by the Irish National Lottery, which makes it legally impossible for any ordinary third party or entity to cash your cheque on your behalf in the UK Cheque Clearing house, you will then have to open and activate an account with this bank with an opening balance/initial deposit of £660 pounds sterlings before we can officially and legally possess the legal right as your bank to cash your winning cheque on your behalf in the UK cheque clearing house(UKCCH).

This is in regulation to the UK Banking laws and polices laid down by the Bank of England and the FSA(Financial Services Authority) which clearly states that for any UK registered bank to have the legal right to cash a certified bank cheque on behalf of the bearer(owner of cheque or payee), the owner of the cheque must have an activated account with the bank that will present the cheque for liquidation in the UK cheque clearing house(UKCCH).

Alternative Option (2) "Courier Check Transfer Option":
In this option, your certified winning cheque along with the legal documents backing your winnings will be delivered to your address that you will provide within 72 hours, we will have to use international licensed DHL Courier Company to deliver your winnings parcel to your address. Note that in this option, your winning parcel can not be delivered to P.O.Box addresses or street corners but to your residence because the DHL delivery officers in charge of the delivery must have to sight your personal valid identification and other required documentations to confirm your legal identity before they will hand over your winning package to you in person.

Below are the mandatory charges associated with the Courier Check Transfer Option via DHL that you are required to pay if you prefer this Courier Check Transfer Option.

TOTAL_____________________ 540 Pounds sterling

Please do clearly note that your winnings has been insured to the full real value and is protected by a hard cover insurance policy which makes it impossible to deduct any amount from your winning funds before it has been remitted to you. This is in accordance with section 13(1)(n) of the national gambling act as adopted in 1993 and amended on 3RD July 1996 by the constitutional assembly. This law was put in place by the Lottery Governing board to protect winners from the misappropriation of their winnings funds before it is been remitted to them.

The International money transfer company, WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER have been chosen as method of payments for customers, you are to make payment through any regional office close to you. This payment method was adopted to ameliorate and speed up the process of payment and delivery because of its wide network of operation.

Why haven't these people been prosecuted yet? I just recieved two emails today for this same thing. This is absolutely ridiculous! I have copied the contents of the emails below and will save them hoping that it will be used for evidence when prosecuting these people:

I got the same mail .I think this is afraud mail
what the thing this uk national lottery they are sending mails that they are not frauding. and the some content of their mail. here I am placing.

This is in consonance with the regulations of the BRITISH STATE SECURITY AGENCY as a guard against internet hackers of online banks and it's likes. It also inhibits internet fraudsters who design pop up sites and impersonate companies known for their untainted reputations from perpetrating their unwholesome activities and defrauding people of their hard earned means of livelihood.
so people who reading this pls be aware of this scam and do not reply those mails.

too many who replied the mails had paid a lot from their pockets
and they made debts to get the prize money.

nearly 3 to 4 lakhs the courier company will demand from you to get the prize amt. and once you pay that amt you will get a califlower .
last weak i received the email from mr chris jones and he told me i win in internional lottery is this really?! please help me abut this tanks very much
