Hot Scam Specifications:
Scam Type: 419 Scam (Lottery Scam)
Fake Names: Rev. Larry Brexton
Offer Type: Lottery Winnings!
Winning Amount: £850,000,00
Storyline: You were told that you have a certified cheque worth £850,000.00 (Eight Hundred and FiftyThousand), waiting to be sent to you immedately if you are able to meet with our "Delivery Requirements". So what are the requirements?
Scammer Location: UK
Scammer Email: amtrak_delivery@live.com
Scammer Phone: +447035919699
Why would anyone believe someone who comes up to him and says, "I am going to send you a large sum of money, please pay for the delivery charges."
Remember the golden rule, if you win a real lottery, you don't have to pay a single cent for whatever reason to receive the money. If there are any fees, they can simply deduct from the winnings.
Lastly, the use of free email addresses is an all-time favourite giveaway, that the offer is a scam.

Hi Jay, Below is the email he sent me and then my response upon receiving the email....
He actually called me and explained to me the currency rate exchange and that if I were to pick
Option 3 it would cost $580.00. He said not to tell anyone about the parcel being delivered or that i won.
That made me question everything. I told him that I don't have that kind of money right now because I'm unemployed and need to
borrow the money from someone... He said he'll hold the check for up to 2 weeks and then he'll have to send it back to the Gaming Commission of London.
I asked him how I can directly call him since I tried calling the country code and then the telephone number they provided and it didn't work. He said to contact him via email from this point on and that he'll give me all the information to wire the money to him.
So I told him I would email as soon as I got the money.... Anyhow, long story short, that's how I came across your website!
Even though I submitted some of my information, I didn't send him important and confidential information.... But what a relief and a disappointment at the same time. Thank you so very much!
Happy New Years!!
Sincerely, XXXXXX :o)

Happy New Year Rev. Larry Brexton.
I apologize for not being able to respond to you sooner, I didn't have internet service and just had it reconnected.
I had a question about the delivery charges. I don't have british pounds as I live in the United States. So if you could kindly call me, we could arrange for another way for delivery? I truly appreciate it! My telephone number in the United States is: (^^^) ^^^-^^^^
My address to send to is: *********************************************.
I hope to hear from you soon!
Thank you!
