SCAMSTERS INC.

Boy Oh Boy!!!!
Finally I have received a mail which read "CONTACT OUR AFFILIATE COURIER AGENT FOR YOUR WINNING PACKAGE DELIVERY".
Ummmm now the Sub line made me suspicious and then did a google to clarify and nail the scamster...
My suggestion would be that if you receive any mails like the one below, is just GOOGLE a part of the mail. I copied the Address and found out that it was a "Nigerian 419 scam".
