Dear members

Its an important announcement for you all. Recently a few members received a phishing mail regarding to some winning award. They were asked for some charges to dispatch the award.

Following are a few mails received by our members:

-----------------

Attn:

Information reaching us by the United Nation Diplomats we have contacted to deliver your the consignment containing your award winning prize that you doubting authencity of this award because we do not use microsoft.com. Microsoft is overall as far as internet is concerned and they powered all most all the sites. We use every other as domian to contact people by away of advertising the site and we are agent to microsoft to present this award to winners.

You should try and co-operate with the diplomats so that he can deliver your award winning prize to you because they have a little time spend in India. You should not discuss the content of the consignment with the diplomats because he is not aware that it is money that is in the consignment, for do that for security reason, their major aim is to deliver the consignment to you. As soon as the consignment is deliver to you by the diplomats please do let us know. 

We will be waiting to hear from you.
