I won a lottery??!!

I wish i had!I'm seriously getting annoyed with the constant e-mails that i am getting saying that i have won few lotteries (Notice LOTTERIES) though secretly i wish i had. And it's so strange that i have won numerous lotteries! The latest e-mail that i have got is from CHEVRON oil and petroleum who claimed that i have won US 1 million Dollars(!). And what is so strange is that the mail comes with detailed information such as the winning number, reference number, batch number and even the claims manager's details! But nothing is mentioned regarding the selection of the winners.

While that is US Dollars, it appears that i have also won some great deal of UK currency!! Well, according this Britain Lottery Group, my e-mail address has been picked as a winner of a lump sum pay out of £891,934.00 pounds sterling!Why me of all people? (or are they sending to all) How do they know that i'm seriously broke and cursing Malaysia government every single day for delaying my allowance?

Not enough with that, i received another silly e-mail from an African guy. According to him , he is a fund manager and has been responsible in managing funds of A. And recently, A was killed in a flight crash in South Africa (may be i should investigate that) and this guy is having problem in transferring the funds to the family members as none of the inheritors have come forward claiming his money. So, now apparently he needs to 'save' the fund from being sent the unclaimed funds department.And to prevent this he has come up with a 'brilliant' idea where he has asked to me to be his partner!! (obviously business partner) Apparently he is taking 45% of the fund, another 45% FOR ME and God only knows about the balance 10%. Why am i being targeted as the butt of your silly pranks?

Whatever it is, if the government is not banking in the allowance in a week's time, i might be sending reply to one of these mails, investigating whether they really intend to reward me :p Koddukra theivam e-maile pichukkuttu kodukkum:p
