I just won the lottery!

Here is a classic example of an online con-mail. The receiver is led to believe they are the winner of a lottery. For the mere sum of between 300 and 900 Euro, an application for non-dutch residents can be completed.  Never answer emails of this sort! Some of the information in this email was deleted for the protection of some gullible individuals.
