that your e-mail won the money from an Online Balloting System and we have

business days for an International Check to be cashed by your local bank. We
have successfully notified this company on your behalf that funds are to be
drawn from a registered bank within the United States Of America so as to
enable you cash the check instantly without any delay, henceforth the stated
amount of $800,000.00 USD has been deposited with Bank
Of America. We have completed this
investigation and you are hereby approved to receive the winning prize as we
have verified the entire transaction to be Safe and 100% risk free, due to
