It seems like more spam is making it past the spam filters recently than usual. Here’s another scam – as though in Thailand they would have a lottery that gives money away to people who have never been there, never mind having bought a ticket. And the lottery exec, as always, has a free Yahoo! e-mail address. Sheesh! Beware, all you gullible people out there!
Anyway, here’s the text of this particular bit of scam spam:
