UN and EU Notification of Cash Aid Phishing Scam
Folks who frequent Venditoris know to be skeptical of emails promising you millions and here’s a new one to add to your list of pure, unadulterated hogwash. Keep an eye out for it in your inbox:
Association Of European Charity Foundations in conjunction with the UNITED NATIONS is giving out a yearly donation of Two Million United States Dollars each to 50 lucky international recipients worldwide in different categories for their educational pursuit, health care, personal Business development and uplift of their environments. These funds are freely given to you to use for your business educational and personal development and at least 30% to be used by you to develop a part of your environment, as this is a yearly program, which is a measure of universal development strategy, and eradication of poverty.
Based on the random selection exercise of internet service providers (ISP) and millions of Super market cash invoices worldwide, you were selected among the lucky recipients to receive the award sum of $2,000,000.00 (Two Million United States Dollars) as charity donations/aid from the UNITED NATION/Association Of European Charity Foundations. Note that, your email was selected from either the internet, or a Shop’s cash invoice around your area in which you might have purchased something from.
