Hello Everyone,

Sorry to tell you this but unfortunately this whole so called 'Gongratualations your Nokia bla bla bla have won bla bla bla Euro/PSTG etc.' is nothing but a mere dream and a 100% SCAM. So, be careful all and NEVER EVER fall into the Nigerian trap or even think of paying for the courier charges, coz those charges are merely 'The DR. Thieves' fees in return of 0, 000, 000.000 Euro/PSTG. The funniest part is that those crook-network operators are all nick-named as Doctors and to my logical sense and knowledge, I have not come across a PHD holder who would make a living as an Operator!!! They may be smart but surely cannot outsmart other smarter people in this world.. They assume that out of 1000 atleast one fool would be there.. So guys I hope none of you represent the 1/1000 ... LOL

hi there, i have received the same thing yesterday but i felt there is somethimg wrong especiall after i called the number which i received the sms from 002347085280869 in which they told me that i won 165, 000 pounds and i have to call 00447045715161 or send an email to nokiaukromo@hotmail.com for claims. i am glad that i did a certain research before i went through all this bullshit. these people shpuld be stopped and locked away in a prison for tricking all these people and they will trick more if they are stopped.
i am really pissed of all this scam.

Just two days ago I received an sms saying that i won 165, 000 pounds in the ongoing nokia uk promo and that to claim the prize i have to phone on the no +447045732473 or email claimsdept@nokiapromouk.com. But how can i get it.
71 days ago by Virgie [send email]
Just got the same SMS this morning, but before I replied I checked it out on the website if there are same cases of this. Glad that I found it here. Thank you guys for your WARNINGS!
70 days ago by Allen Galea [send email]
I just received an sms today 23-04-08 saying the exact same thing. I thought I'd send an email through a protected email address and surely enough I received the form this afternoon. I am supposedly the winner of GBP550, 000 but I have my doubts. How do they know I have a Nokia mobile phone? I only changed it a couple of months ago and before that I had a different brand. I didn't tell my service provider I changed my phone and I sometimes switch from one phone to another. It's just a scam in my opinion. I will NOT be forwarding the form with my details and I suggest the authorities take action before someone innocent gets taken for a ride!!
