Complaint Rating:

I received a txt message this morning that i am a winner of 210,000 GBP. I was curious and anxious about this text, so i emailed them on how to claim the prize. And then i received a reply like this below. I researched and read so many things of the same fraudulent subject so i decided to disregard the email...

So beware of this people.
