2010 World cup in South Africa FIFA Promotion team
When I received this as a word document in a phishing email, I had to share. Take a look at the graphics – the scammers that sent this email are trying to look official by showing pictures of people who won their lottery; they are so incompetent that they actually used a picture from a Michigan Lotto Winner!
To top it all off, they claim to be using a new ‘java-based’ software package to generate results, as if that matters (perhaps their DOS based package gave away too many funds : ).
Here is the scam below:

Same here, name is different but the same idea… funny thing is they say “Final notice” lol and it is the first notice XD… impatient scammers!!
I like messing with them, Here is my reply.
Thank you!
That is GREAT news to hear. My wife is currently traveling through South Africa
with her collages from the Red Cross Society, I think they are currently in or near Beaufort West.
My wife and I are financially secure. I inherited 16.3 million from my late aunt Esther
last summer.
So I am going to give my wife the biggest birthday gift ever. I would like to donate the
entire amount of my winnings (minus taxes and any processing fees) to the following
organization.
The South African Red Cross Society
Standard Redcross Donations
Standard Bank – Constantia
Account Number: 071760571
Branch Code: 025309
SWIFT Code: SBZAZAJJ
I will make the following arraignments with Standard Bank – Constantia. I will send them a
signed release of my interest in the winnings. I will also send a certified and signed transfer of
funds form. They will be arraigning the transfer of funds with your claims department early
next week.
My contact Nelson Botha at Standard Bank – Constantia is taking care of all arraignments.
Here is his phone number 0860101341.
I would like to thank you Mr. Daniel Jomoh.
Together we can make a difference in the world.
Had a similar email today, was nearly fooled only because this sum of money would assist me, family, friends and those in desperate need.
My contact person was Mr. John Modise I have sent an email to ‘andre@gamblingcontrol.org’;'ccchair@gcb.nv.gov’;’shenseljar@state.pa.us’ one of whom is chief exec for International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR), asking if this is a scam (no reply as yet). I may not be a millionairess when I wake in the morning but after reading the above comments neither will I be the idiot who believed this really was true (shame it isn’t though hey!), thank goodness for the internet and the opportinuty/ability to research; I will however sleep well now tonight.
hello dears,
I received the same thing, from Mr ‘Makeba Toba’!. Well heck, the email address didn’t even look real!
mmmm it is not exactly the of someone who is giving you 1.5 millions!
:)
i received a email that say i win 1,500000 dollar it want 1250 euro for
attorney to represent me and sign on pehalf me are this matter true
are this mail are winner mail
mahmoud3010@gmail.com
Just received similar e-mail today. Contact person is Mike Zuma. Looks like they might be attempting to legitimize the appearance of the validity because I won 2nd place ($820,000.00 instead of 1st Place ($1,000,000.00). Funny thing is I have never entered any contests by email. I really feel sorry for the ignorant and greedy people who fall for these type scams.
Hi
I have also received same mail on 15th Feb ‘09 from ‘ Makeba toba ‘
Saying that i have won $ 1,500,000.00 dollar. (1.5 Million dollars)
I have replied to leslie thomas,
Attached for you reference and find below my deatils.
Name, country mob. # etc.,
Later they sent T-T form etc., but I have not replied anything.
This was rubbish and follish…….
BE CAREFUL……………………
hello dears,
I received the same thing, from Mr ‘Mr. Desmond Dube’!
Will any body tell these people that these all mails have been in common …………so please if they wana fake then atleast try some new IDEA…………
they really require some Good innovation
Doy gracias a Dios porque me a iluminado a encontrar estas pginas y testimonios de diferentes personas, Pienso que aunque son nombres falsos y asi como ellos tienen la gran agilidad de contactar e-mails , pues asi mismo podemos descubrirlos y hacer que nos paguen lo prometido o que paguen con CARCEL HAY QUE ABRIR UNA GRAN INVESTIGACION ACERCA DE ESTO . A mi en lo personal tambien quisieron estafarme pero ya veran tendran que pagar.
I recieved one of these too and I’m mad as heck to fall for such a scam I hope they catch these people who rip off poor people out of their money!!! and hang them up by their toes for days no water or food then they would know how it feels to let people down
I have received the following unsolicited email. I have been quite frequently receiving such emails. In my opinion all these are spam or frauds and a way of extracting money or syphening/laundering out funds in way or the other.

wt this rubbish is.isnt any 1 of real fifa team to take notice of such people making there name ruin.really a stupid 1……….
Good ol Mr. Paul Morgan almost threw me for a loop. He actually called me sounding like a genuine person. When I heard that you would have to pay $550 to get a $2,000,000.00 check sent by DHL (which I knew was a lot due to me receiving previous goods shipped transglobal via Ebay), I was a little bit skeptical. When I heard that it would be $1550 to have it wired to a bank account, I was done. There is no way that you have to spend that amount of money to get a prize claim. If so, take it out of my winnings. Nice try guys, but no dice.
I also receive this kind of email earlier this Feb. I wonder were they faking or were genuine people . they had ask me the details which I had mailed to them. I called one Leslie Thomas on her Number but got no reply accept that of an answering machine . well they are just ruining the name of The FIFA football league.
i received a email that say i win 1,500000 dollar it want 1250 euro for
attorney to represent me and sign on pehalf me are this matter true
are this mail are winner mail
i called mark williams ( +27839838689) and he said he said he is an agent so i must send a message from my cellphone. i said “in your dremz)
since when you call the provided number and somebody answer it. i think there is a way to trace and find them. can the legal action be taken on this and take them where they belong?
I just got this exact email today except supposedly the claims Agents name was different. this is not the first time i have received a lotto scam email i get them daily and its so annoying. The email is as follow:

how do you send a lottery prize of 1,950,000.00 to a winning person?
I have received a similar email a couple of days ago. Here is what it said:
The Local Organising Committee (LOC) for the South Africa 2010 world cup announced today that it will give full support to UEFA for the UEFA Champions League Trophy Tour in Africa. Africans will hold the UEFA Champions League Trophy aloft when it takes the famous cup on tour in December this year.
The kick off date of the UEFA Champions League Trophy Tour will coincide with the Final draw date for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in Cape Town, South Africa, on 4 December 2009 at the Cape Town International Convention Centre.
To create international AWARENESS of the Tour and the 2010 FIFA World Cup, UEFA and FIFA organised the first ever
world cup online awareness (email) draw by contacting Microsoft directly to provide the email contacts of the leading internet using countries that are members of FIFA.
Among the email addresses that were provided by microsoft for the online draw, your email address came out as one of the four lucky winning email addresses of FOUR MILLION DOLLARS ( $4,000,000.00 ), as a result your email address won you the sum of ONE MILLION DOLLARS ( $1,000,000.00 ).

I have received the following unsolicited email.
Attn: Mr. XY
I have not seen your mail but I write you now, based on our telephonic conversation. I want you to bear in mind that whichever way you will have to know that As a matter of policy once winners has been notified any expenditure in the course of their claims will be borne by the winner.
Like I suggested to you that it will be easier for you to employ the service of an accredited attorney who will represent you in this course, since you do not have direct flight to Johannesburg , and again you will have to get a visa and all the logistics before embarking on this trip , bearing in mind the cost of your hotel accommodation for three days here, you still have to come along with this fees Registration and Notarization fee , Stamp and Deed Duty fee, legalization and Administrative cost if you calculate this it will amount to €3,750( three thousand Seven hundred and fifty euro) which is more expensive considering employing the services of an accredited attorney. If you choose to come you must come along with this fee.
This is because preferences are given to the attorney’s since they are working for the Organisation but hence you are here you will have to bear the expenditure in this vain all alone.
As your claim Agent I will advise you to employ the services of an attorney immediately as this is less expensive.
This message is confidential and for use by the addressed only. The content is not to be disclosed to anyone other than the addressed. Please advise the sender by telephone or email of any error.
We shall be waiting for your response.

Dearest Susan Preston,
Thank you so much! I am so excited on my win. Now let me tell you what you can do….take your 2 million dollars and shove it up your ass. Stop trying to scam people. Find a legitimate way to make money…perhaps get a friggin job and stop spamming my inbox!
Sincerely Yours

All i can say is’God bless them, so that they get what they are looking for in life for they don’t know what they are doing.
I’ve got the same scam email here in India.
This is the second time i am getting same scam !!
But what is happening in our world to day. can you imagine i also got the same email, and i had to carry out research about the name of the person claiming to act as their coordinator but surprisingly i found out this name is being used by these days computer scam. what they have forgotten is that, they cannot fool every body. i would like to ask the entire world that when you receive such mails don’t even bother to read it just delete it there and then. thanks.
got an email saying i won 1 million dollars..i was like…what..out of the billions of people in this world =,how is my email picked….if it was real i would have been the happiest boy on earth..i would have my life started i was even thinking of paying for college early , but the fact that its not..just pisses me off..makes me fill like deleting my email…

then Mr Hon.Johnson Cole (OASIS NOTARIES) send you a Power of Attorney letter to sign and a TT FORM
AND HE Will claim your price
This people should get shot
I am a South African and have read your comments. From what I gather I can tell you that I know some of the guys like Desmond Dube and Jabu Moleketi these stupid people have used. The people mentioned have nothing to do with World Cup. Desmond is a TV personality while JAbu is a former Deputy Minister of Finance during the tenure of former South African president Thabo Mbeki. Those who trusted their gut feelings and ignored the scam did the right thing
Be that as it may Here in South Africa because we know their style of doing things have come up with different approach. Today I received a letter from the post saying I was being informed that FIFA Grants Award in conjunction with the European Champion Spain and united Nation organisation are giving me
€ 715, 810, 000. 00. They claim that this is a measure of universal development strategy in trying to balance the standard of living among citizens of South Africa in preparation for SOUTH AFRICA FIFA WORLD CUP 2010.
The letter goes on and on with these utterances and warns that I must not tell anybody not until the money has been deposited in my account. My mini research done suggested that all people listed in th letter were unknkwn entities by FIFA
Guys beware of these crooks you might be easily carried away and trapped especially during this recession era.

I got the same as (ojm August 17 2009) Mine was on the 11 August 2009. I wonder if FIFA knows about these clowns. Have they nothing else to do with their lives but send people stupid e-mails and sms’s.
There must be method in their madness, or they would not do it. There must be something underlying their motives. Can These people not be reported? people like these gather information on a person and use it to their own advantage.
Please warn all you friends and loved ones not to disclose any personal information to these cyber hooligans.
Here is mine…..

Hi,
I got a message on my mobile abt.winning US$ 4.8 M and it asked me to contact Chris & email id was given too… next morning, i sent the email & then Chris asked me to contact someone in some other email. i sent that too.
Then, i got an email requesting to fill forms of legal acceptance and send the same to someone…i did that too and then i got last email from barclays (on the letter head & with all contact details of some David Roberts & he asked to fill in the details (there were 2 forms – TT form & letter from Barclays). I did that too.
I was not aware of this scam & now i am afraid that i’ve provided all details to them…pls. help as i am really worried.
These kind of people should get the most sever punishment!!!
Sir
I received an sms about 3 weeks ago from FIFA 2010. the message read. congratulation you have won 4.5m US dollars in the fifa 2010. In order to claim my prize I was requested to contact a certain person wth an email address. Just out of curiosity I did, but did not disclose any banking details.
Should you wish i would like to forward to you the response I received from FIFA 2010. Kindly forward to me an email address where this claim can be verified whether it is legitimate or not.
regards
I cannot believe this…My mother received the exact sms from this so called promoting company telling her she’d won $2.8 mill…They sent a form to facilitate the process of claiming the prize money which we completed (being gullible and optimistic). Today I received an e-mail from them telling me to contact a nominated attorney Mr Johnson Cole and that the money will be paid into a nominated bank account.
For some reason I got a funny feeling and thought let me check the address out only to find these responses from you guys. Good thing too…
Is there anything that can be done to stop these people??Surely FIFA is being affected somehow as these people are using their name…
Hi,
I received an sms this a few hours ago congratulating me. The amount is US$2.8M, um, is it all a scam???? I was asked to contact Chris via email (the email address was provided).
I have seen other web pages which claim that some of these sms’s are legite. Are they? Is everyone just assuming that it is all fake or do you know for sure that it is??
Please advise
Please help i got the same and send the all my details including my banking details. Can people be so cruel?

Hi.
My wife got the sms yesterday at about 23h00 last night saying she must contact a certain Mr Chris. I cudnt believe how pathetic and cruel this people can be because ive heard of such scam. I think fifa must do something an warn people who might fall for this scam they even go as far as saying you musnt tell anyone about this. I hope they burn in hell for what they are doing to innocent people.
My husband also received an sms saying that he had won 2.8mil dollars and had to contact Mr Chris @ a yahoo address ref no. 25A69. I had my reservations believing that this was not true. I checked out the fifa scam website and low and behold it was a scam. Please do not be fooled by these wicked scam jukkies.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh i have won too !!!!!!
Got the same email the one to contact Jabu Moleketi. I responded to it and I let turned them in too. I got mine Sept 6 2009. I looked it up and he was on the World cup committee but e resigned in Feb 09. They know about the scams that are going on just to let you know
hi i got the same message today and when i tried to call the number to actually tell the so called chris that people around the world are not fools like them and that they should try to focus on earning money the right way rather than coning people and at the same time wasting there as well as our time. ny way thank god that people around the world are much more smarter than there ass…….
I have received the same sms and mail from Chris Newman and then I responded to it all. Received a email from James Doran saying his from Link Laters LLP. Have contact the firm and an investigation is underway. This is really bad for people that is financially in trouble to get things like this and think it is all good. Shame on you for doing that.
I received an E-Mail from William Powell that I won a MILLION DOLLARS !!! I was told to contact Tim Modise at tim modise@live.co.za . William Powell is a dead actor & Tim Modise is a radio talk show host.To top it all my mothers last name was Powell, I wonder how far these people will go to get their kicks OR DO THEY NEED KICKED? I am not too sure the FIFA would like these people using it’s organization for such things. Don’t people have better things to do rather than hassle others?
i received something similar with a picture very well presented i havent response yet but am going to talk to police and maybe set up a sting and catch these fukers but thats unlikely the cops would probably tell me to erase the email and go on with my life….
i received a message on my mobile i have won 2.8millionus$. is it a scam
or for real.
I received an sms stating that I’ve won 2.8M$!!! LOL. Here’s the email that followed:

People out there, just a friendly reminder… “IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, THEN IT PROBABLY IS!”
I’ve received an SMS that I’ve won US$2,8000.000. I was told to contact Chris Newman and James Doran. U know I’ve responded to it all. It is very bad because some of us they are in need of money, and they die when they find that it’s a scam. Guyz u need help. One day it will come to you and u will feel who bad it is.
i think this is bill!!!!!! why give people hope in the world when there is hardly hope for the world it self. I almost was hoax but lucky i have nothing on my name to con me out of. so good luck and try some one else.
I have also got the same email on 9/11/09 stating that my email was one of the lucky 7 addresses that won for a weekly promotion. To contact Temba Peter by phone or email with the information. Luckly I researched first before sending any other information. Damn fools…..who do they think they are.
hi friends
i received a similar email, it seemed very professional, it was in pdf format, fifa headers, contact email, and even an actual phone number in south africa…. i actually called this person and he answered the phone saying “hello you have reached Benjamin Duru at the local organising committee, how can i help you?”
the gentleman seemed to have all the answers for all my questions, and claimed that he all he needed in regards to information was simply basic info you would give out on a daily basis. and in regards to the money transfer, he would send me a bank draft and does not require any account information….
does this sound fake to anyone?

I received this same email and today I received my check for one million dollars in a envelope with a 32 cent stamp. Needless to say I was ecstatic. This is one of the few legit ones – NOT.
I’m kidding of course and this is the biggest scam out there! You’ll never receive a red cent!
I got the same email today and i called and the person on the other end said they were that person…and that he was with that affiliation…i couldn’t believe it. I actually responded to it all. It is really disappointing because some of us are in need of money. Just cant believe these kind of people….
i have received mail of draw from 2010 World cup in South Africa FIFA Promotion team on 20th July 2009 and am wondering if there is any truth to this or not. I would hate to miss out on a great opportunity!
this mail address have been sent a mail from the SOUTH AFRICAN FIFA WORLD CUP 2010 INTERNET LOTTERY PROMOTION that this mail has won a sum of 820 000.00 US Dollars. this mail was sent to me from Dr. Tim Demise some days ago. i want to know if this is true and that this mail has really won this sum. they said tickets were pinned to the mails addresses. i actually did not buy a ticket in this lottery. i am confused and want someone to assure me of the truth. if u can, please help me. i badly need ur cordial help, this matters with me so much. lots of thanks and sorry for the inconvenience. yours.
Hello Alton Collins,
This is to inform you that i got the documents and i have made all the necessary calls and arrangements beforehand. You have one week from now to claim your prize money as stipulated by the 2010 Awareness draw Claims Committee.
As a result of the fact that you won’t be able to travel down to South Africa to claim your prize personally, i will prepare the backup documents on your behalf and send them to the pay out bank so as to enable the bank wire transfer your prize money to you soon.
Attached to this email is the breakdown of the required charges for the ANTI-DRUG CERTIFICATE and the ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING CERTIFICATE as well as Administrative/filing charges.
Do download and view the attached required documentation charges and get back to me as soon as possible so that i will send you the details as to how you should send down the charges to enable me proceed with the documentation.
You can call me via my number below if you want more clarification on the above mentioned issue.
You are required to respond on time because you do not have so much time left.
NOTE: The documents you filled/signed and sent to me are just forms that i will use to prepare the proper ANTI-DRUG AND ANTI-MONEY LAUNDERING CERTIFICATES as soon as i receive the documentation charges (720 USD) from you.

I still cant believe there are still sick people out there, instead of using their time and brains productively to benefit themselves and their family, they waste it on something so foolish and entirely not profitable.
I also can not understand how they got away with such scams, even now, without being traced and put where they belong to idle as much as they wish because honestly: There’s no country deserving to have such people with so lean understanding on how to spend given time.
My email was even mentioning: Please don’t share this information with anyone to avoid double claiming and also mentioning: Communicate through email due to high charge of cellphones, then my question was, Why worry because I’m about to be a millionaire, I was promised US$2, 800, 000.00. but you worry for my call cost!
I nearly fell for it, but i said let me poke first,then i got this..shoooo, my chosen legal practitioner is Jonathan Fyne JF Kinds.
But i’m glad because i told them to get the nearest Hell and curse their devil because no one in his right mind can spend God given time on such RUBBISH
I wish they can wake up and smell the rooibos, “poor them”. Even as I respond i’m very skeptical,,,Lord have mercy on them
this mail address have been sent a mail from the SOUTH AFRICAN FIFA WORLD CUP 2010 INTERNET LOTTERY PROMOTION that this mail has won a sum of 820 000.00 US Dollars. this mail was sent to me from Mr. John Smith some days ago. i want to know if this is true and that this mail has really won this sum. they said tickets were pinned to the mails addresses.Iam confused and want someone to assure me of the truth. if u can, please help me. i badly need ur cordial help, this matters with me so much. lots of thanks and sorry for the inconvenience. yours.

My husband has also received an sms with the millions he won, we send the e mail to the person named in the e mail and the we received also a letter of attorney of this “Mr JF Kinds LLP, I see if a previous comment there were also the same person’s name mentioned, well done MR JF Kinds, if I wasn’t cautious you would have fooled me.
Same here. These guys need to be stopped. Cant somebody do something? I was just as glad to find out I won and now………… nothing!!!!!!!
I hope they get a cramp where it does not belong.
Did anybody win anything?
Have received a similar sms on the 19th Oct. 2009 and then an e-mail. The attorney’s name , however, has changed to L.S. Kinds LLP. What I don’t understand is wat they can achieve with this information? They have only asked my name age and addresse.
I want to know if somebody received any money from these people; JABU MOLEKETI, or ABNER KATLEHO.
thank god i searched first the net to validate their org, i was really fooled & shocked with the amount! i thought i really won $800,000, damn…
I got a text on my phone that I won $100,000. I emailed them and they responded with the requirements. There was no other security information required so I sent an email back. If I get a check in the mail, I’ll s….. my pants!!!!!
Fred

Hi there fellow victims
I am from South Africa and I have also recieved a SMS fromTHE NATIONAL UK LOTTERY MOBILE DRAW. Luckily I checked the net because These people just could not deside if I had won US$2 ,000,000.00 or US$2 ,400,000.00. What a lot of money!!! My only problem is that I have to collect the winnings in London myself within 7 days??? so I was wondering if any of you are in London?? because if you can collect my winnings in London I will collect yours here in SA and than we can have a moerse PARTY.
As my grandfather would have said K@#$%@K.
Have a Great Day
All i can say be carefull people there is no money at all it’s only lies and fantasy. I got the same email but i don’t believe that a such a lot of money will be mine. I m a poor man and stay poor and proud to be. Don’t dream it’s over.
I am from south africa and I received an sms telling me that i have won 2.8 million US$. Can you believe It i replied to all the people involved. Starting at Mrs Brown (award12010@yahoo.com.hk) then Chris Dean (fifa12010@yahoo.com.hk) Then I received an e-mail from L S KINDS LLP 21 Vernon Street London SE1 27SW, England.(lysong@kindsllp.com) This letter was a POWER OF ATTORNEY form that i must complete. The second letter from them was a (TT) FORM which means that it is used for foreign transfers only. The next letter was to say we hereby confirm receipt of the completed forms. wechave submitted your file for the process of your non – resident tax clearance and foreign remittance permit, and the payment bank (barclays bank plc) shall commence the process of your prize payment value in your choice or mode of payment. Please find the related charges as below stated 1 insurance. GBP 250 and 2. non residence tax clearance GBP 180 total GBP 430. THE ABOVE STATED FEES SHOULD BE SENT VIA WESTERN UNION MONEY TRANSFER SERVICES FOR FASTER PROCESS WITH MY NAME LY SONG. I tried to contact then on the telephone numbers given but with no sucess. I replied with an e-mail asking them i don’t understand the way i must send them the money through Western Union money transfer services. With your speedy coopration this process will be completed within the next 2-3 days for you to receive your prize payment to you. Im still waiting for an relpy. Please people be on the watch out for people who wants to take away your money. I realized there must be something to it and then i went on to do some internet surfing. My suspicions was right. So if you still believe you can win that money after you read this and previous articles then you can give then your money for free. Im gonna take it up with our local newspapers to warn the people about this scam. HOPE ONE DAY ME AND YOU WIN THIS KIND OF MONEY IN AN LEGAL WAY.
GOD BLESS
i got a message this morning and it says i have won 890.000.00 pounds sterling the fifa 2010 draw and it says to claim i must contact mr. chris smith. i want to know is it for real or what?
I received similar sms that I won some lottery thing from the UK but I didn’t follow it cause I could feel that it’s a scam,anyway I’m too smart for this.And recently My dad received an sms that he won money as part of FIFA 2010 award promotion and I tried to follow it up and now they are telling me To send to another email.This guys are pathetic and I wonder where do they get our numbers from,are some of our friends involved?
i received a message on the 22nd of November saying i have won us$2.8m for FIFA International award on my number [snip], so i want to know what must i do to claim my prize because they have said that i must contact Mrs.Brown via:award2210@yahoo.com.hk.please help me i don’t know how to get her because when i sent an email it doesn’t sent it.
got a message this morning and it says i have won 500000000 dolar the fifa 2010 draw and it says to claim i must contact mr. chris smith. i want to know is it for real or what?
got a message this morning and it says i have won 890.000.00 pounds sterling the fifa 2010 draw and it says to claim i must contact.mr jesper hank. i want to know is it for real or what?
I also received an email stating that i won US$ 2.8 Million. I was supposedly to contact Mrs. Ly Song
This is a hoax and should be reported.Anyone that can trace these people via the internet should.
Got a sms saying i won 2.8m. Went as far as filling out the TT form and some other form, got a e-mail saying i had to pay 430GBP before they can transfer the money. Did some research on the net and found this web site. Don’t believe anything you hear or see rather investigate and then make up your mind.
Thank you for saving me money
My mom also received sms this week. Shame she was so excited (me too). They told her that she won US2.8 dollars as part of FIFA 2010 promotion. I e-mailed a mrs. Brown then Dean something and now the attorney Ly Song. They also sent me forms (Power of Attorney and TT form) to fill out for them.
also received an sms on 22november saying i’ve won 2;8 u.s dollar on my cell number and surposed to contact mrs brown i just ignored
I recieved this same email.
Replied to it. Got some documents from an attorney.
Contacted my own attorney regarding this.
It would be nice if all this was true but it is hard to believe.
If they are out to steal people`s money then they should be stopped.
Thanks
The same happened to me. Received SMS on 22nd Nov 09 and Mrs Susan H Brown replied promptly, Chris Dean (fifa12010@yahoo.com.hk) and attorney (Solicitor) Ly Song (lysong@kindsllp.com). The UK tel numbers and fax are real but they refuse to provide physical address. Why does Fifa not act against them using their name, but Fifa acts against South Africans trying to sell products in their own country. Do not send them any money or personal info and watch your credit accounts.

Thank you all. My mother received an sms saying that she had won about 2.8 US dollarsd and the first thing I checked was these people’s email addresses. Other thing is that my mom never entered a competition via sms or even phoning any 2010 FIFA promotions and yet they claim that she won. All too obvious that this was a scam!
So I wrote back to them via email and made them aware that we know that was a scam. Till this day, they never replied.
Is this true, if not why do fifa allow these people to make fool of vurnable people who are in distress already. Fifa is quick on other things and on this I see no action taken to warn people about the scam.
i have received an email on the 22 nov 2009 saying that this is to comfirm your cell number have won US$2.8m for FIFA 2010 international award. to claim contact mrs brown via award22010@yahoo.com.hk.
i then had to email a chris dean by fifa32010@yahoo.com.hk. he then emailed me and refered to my power of attorney Mrs Ly Song and her email adress will be lysong@kindsllp.com.
Flip would i have loved this if it was so true. Would have been dedt free.
i am still awaiting my answer wheter it is a fruad or not – would keep you posted hey if i will here from my Attorney Mrs Ly Song
i also received the same sms saying I won 2.8 m dollars, i must contact Mrs brown, after that Chris Dean, after that Ls kinds LLP. i decided to google them I’m glad to find out its a scam. Becareful guys.
OMG. I recieved the SMS saying that i have won US$2.8M. I had to contact Susan Brown I got a response and was refred to Chris Dean who refered me to Ly Song I have sent all details now I ghave a request to Pay GBP 430 , by western Union directly to Ly Song, now I realise this is a scam. I’m worried now as these sick people have my details, luckily not my Banking Details. The FIFA authorities should do something about these sick people.
This is low how can people do that to other human beings? Mrs Brown Dean and LY Song you should be ashamed of yourselfs!!! Think of it this way one day you will have to stand before God and tell him why you have scammed people for money!!! If this is what money do to people then i’d rather be poor and happy!!!
Hi, I’ve been posting the following comments on sites hoping to convince some poor sole that there is hope! Here is what I post:
I decided to write about this because I feel bad for all the people I have scammed and want to come clean. I am sorry.
Thanks for your information as this will save plenty of people money if they just investigate this ongoing scam. There must be a way to stop these people and warn the innocent victims.
Great to have these type of websites.
Thanx
Thank Goodness for Google…. I just received an sms message on 15December and was quiet shocked that I had won when I hadn’t even entered or played any FIFA 2010 WORLD CUP GAME…. wat rubbish???? and I thought for a while that it was my lucky day!!!!!
Something should definitely be done….to this ppl who have nothing better to do with their lives it seems…?????
hi I also recieved from Mrs vera bosman a sms for a winning R200,00.00 from a promotion from T-mobile uk to promote fifa 2010 world cup she required R750 to clear my winnig certicate I asked to advance me the money I will give her R5000.00 to rebourse her , (waiting for reply Ah Ah

i go mail
wht i should to do now
plz plz tell me
I first received a SMS informing me that I had won and dialed the number (like an idiot) got through to a French answering machine, which I obviously did not understand a word of. Then I received the e.mail informing me that I had won 750000US Dollars and that the Bank of England would be contacting me to verify my payout. I phoned the “Client Manager” who informed me their offices are at Ellis Park Johannesburg and I should fill the form out asap and forward it. I received a return e.mail from him informing me that I had indeed won and someone from the bank of England would be in contact with me in 24hours. Then I decided to goggle and came across this page. I want to do something like take serious legal action against the person that answered his cell and the other e.mail address. Who are these people and how can we stop it !! This is the most cruelest act I have experienced. We must be able to do something to stop this. Any suggestions ??
oh my gosh i cannot believe this. honestly i was getting very excited coz it looked so legit and all. until i got the “bill of cost” that i had to send to the attorneys for the “office work”. eyo it just started sounding dodgy when they start asking for payment i mean why would you be paying someone for winning. they started asking stuff like my bank details and thats when i realised that it was too dodgy. i then googled it and found all the other victims. But happily i was the victor in the fight to resist $2400000 in cash,
hola Iàm from Mexico and also got an SMS saying I won 2.4 US million . This is a worldwide scam! please do not answer them.
Son ladrones!! scams!!
What a bunch of assholes. Do they honestly think that I will fall for this crap. I’m in South Africa and received the mail 12/01/10. What is concerning is the fact that they make use of the FIFA World Cup logo and mention all the relevant soccer parties in their letter. I’ve won an amazing amount of 750000 British Pound and can resign pretty soon. The reality of all is that I know its a scam and I have to work from 8h00 to 17h00 for the rest of my life.
Please don’t fall for these assholes.
I have received a similar e-mail shown below.
I wonder why they are sending such mails.
This i am giving for others not to fll prey to this kind of schemes.

I have completed their form : i have give them my details whats going to happen then?
Bliksems!!
Do they really think that they can get away with something like this!!
In December 2009, I received a text message (sms) on my mobile phone congratulating me on my $2 Million win. All I needed to do was confirm my email address. I thought I’d play along, see how far this would go. It wasn’t an instant reply (they must be very busy sending these scams).
The best part is the grammar they use, the spelling error on ‘official’ documents from a supposed attorney and the free email accounts they use. Anyway, I was sent 2 documents from attorney LS Kinds, which I have never responded to. I was never asked on either documents to reveal anything other than my full name & email address.
What would they gain from that? Anyway, just wanted to let everyone know that these scammers have somehow gotten access to our cellular/mobile number.
Just be aware.
i got this email, and would love for it to be true, so of course i try it out and now i’ve been sent a power of attorney form and transfer form as well, and the law firm is LS Kinds LLP how does one find out if its true, and let me know before i make a complete idiot of myself and i’ve actually kept all there correspondence and would like for these guys to be caught
I hereby saying that i received a message that says i won $ 5000000. I was not told what to do then to claim this amount of money. My cell phone number is.

All I want to know is what are they doing with all our info and where did they get our cell phone numbers.
these people are a bunch of useless excuses for human beings who are taking up a lot of the precious resources (air; food etc)- they should be caught and hung by their unmentionables. I received this crap & sent my details through, with cell number & name- the rest of the stuff was utter lies from me. Will these people ever learn- do they not have a conscience? I reallu hope that they are caught & disposed off in the appropriate manner for scamming innocent people out of pocket. I actually sent them a response telling them to stop this BULL-SH*T and that they should be more productive with their lives instead of scamming people.
i received an email advising that i have won 24000000 usd and that I must contact the mentioned attorneys to do the necessary claim on my behalf. I called the number on the email (+ 447924079896 – hot line number) and when i asked the person on the other side if this was a scam he quickly said goodbye and hung up. hid voice was definately that of a nigerian person. I then called the alloted attorney Hon. William Cole on Number + 44 2033185287 and when I questioned him he told me to come to London myself to claim, and also hung up, he too was nigerian.

I also received the sms winning $2.8 mil from Mrs Janie Alfie, followed by one from Susan Brown, Chris Dean and the cherry on the Cake – a Dr W Chester – supposedly director of the ROYAL BANK OF CANADA. all of them swearing on their lives it is legit. i received several confirmation letters and a foreign transfer form from the bank. my family and i are having severe financial trouble so we were hopeful and replied and gave info incl my bank account ( which luckily is empty 99% of the time) – Ms Ly Song also sent me her Power of attorney docs etc. in the meantime – the Dear DR CHESTER from the bank emaild me that i had to pay $805 for service charges within 3 days to claim my money.
i only have internet via my cell phone so i didnt check but by then i realised somethings fishy – i spoke to my brother and he told me certain things that made me realise it was a scam…
i emailed them both telling them that i think they are scumbags and to provide proof and validation to my attorney here in south africa and to liase with him directly… i quote:: BOLLOCKS TO YOU SCUMBAGS”
i have yet to hear from them again – this was 2 days ago!!!
I am terribly afraid because they have personal details incl my bank account – i did not give them a power of attorney – my own husband doesnt have that!!
please advise me!!! I am Scared. i was naive and terribly hopeful- -my daughter has a heart condition and is always sick and i have to relocate – this would have helped had it been true

Better safe than sorry!!!!
Hi all, i received the same old same old. also send the 2nd email but didn’t go further than that, thank God. i’m trying to get hold of the fifa people in SA as i think that they would like to know that there are people that uses there name (which is restricted) in such scams.
