The Aminos said...

4M only ah? too little lah, just ignore it. wait for around 10M first.

reanaclaire said...

Ah Ngao said...

wenn said...

it's a scam..don't trust it..

William said...

I won't many also. I won one two days back...in fact, I was told that the money has been courier to me! Just sit back and wait but there is a catch! I need topay the insurance money leh! Hahaha... nice thought!

reanaclaire said...

Ah Ngao: sounds so easy.. ok, better that than this toyota award, hor?


Wenn : actually i received a lot but this one the latest from toyota.. cos i m using toyota too.. i wonder.. i wonder...


William: Ok, in that case, i also sit back..hahaa.. and start dreaming!

SimpleJenn said...

A definite no-no. I've been receiving these e-mails since i- can't-remember-when and the amount and storyline only seems to get more n more "entertaining" like inheritance, money-can't-get-out-of-country and oso something like urs.

Merryn said...

if betul, can I be your god daughter claire???? lol.... i'll jaga u until old age.. hahahahha

reanaclaire said...

Simple Jenn: yes..i rec the inheritance one many times too..but this one came from toyota is something new.. hehehe..


Merryn: sure..if i really have 4M.. i give u some... ok? give ethan also some... wah.. shiok.. 4 Million wor.. i cannot finish it la.. let u and my kids finish it la..hahaha...

chrisau said...

how much did they ask u to deposit into their bank account first? hahaha ...

doc said...

there must be a change in tactics because i normally receive these emails from a certain african country. but then, what's the difference - greed transcends all barriers!!

Weng Forsgren said...

I hope you ignore that email claire. I usually received an email telling i won something but the funny thing how could that be that i was not joining anything haha.they were only trying to cheat people.Once you contact them, they will ask you some money to pay something before you could claim your prize hehe.
But anyway, i still congratulate you..and I know you are always smart.
Happy sunday claire!

TZ said...

hmmm... i got this same format but different company... mine is from Microsoft. I just posted an entry about this one month back... am i a millionaire... hahahaha what a jokes :p

reanaclaire said...

Chris: want to join venture? bank in money? i wonder how much they want me to bank in.. tot of replying them... hhhaaa..


doc: yes, rec many emails, attracting people with their millions.. i wonder why they still use this method since a lot of us know it is scam already...


Weng, thanks for compliment but if u read my posts, i can be very silly at times.. not smart thinking too.. hahhaa...


TZ: hope one day we be millionaire, huh... u microsoft, me toyota.. :)

Gorgeous MUM said...

The good life is inspired by love and guided by knowledge! Have a good week ahead!

Henry Yew said...

Don't even reply to that e-mail! It's a scam. If they got your e-mail through legal methods then they should know who you are. Why should they address you as "Dear Lucky Winner" anyway? Your name is not "Lucky Winner", therefore it's not addressed to you. =D

And as I said, if they got your e-mail address by legal means, then they would know who you are. Thus, if they are genuine in giving you the money, they could just send you a cheque straightaway! Why bother to ask for your details?

It's a hoax, aunty...

reanaclaire said...

Gorgeous Mum: u have a great week ahead too!


Henry: thanks for your concern.. yes, aunty knows it is a scam.. been receiving plenty of that but first time from toyota.. as u said, they should know my particulars, esp my phone number, my data is all in toyota.. :)
