Mrs Bashira is fighting poverty around the world

<![CDATA[
]]>
Nope, I think she means that she is fighting her own poverty.

They like to use big names, like Yahoo and Microsoft, and attach photos
of probably real people who are unaware and not involved in the scam.
That is why we are telling you Not to provide your personal information
to these scammers, because the next thing you know is that your name is
used in another scam.

In this particular scam, the “draw” was held in America. And if you don’t claim the prize, the money will go to charity.

So, you didn’t pay for the lottery, and now they are giving you lottery winnings – and how is that logical in “helping to fight world poverty”. (See the motto, we have removed the logo as we are not sure where that comes from, probably stolen from a real charity organisation)

Where did the money come from to help poverty if there is neither cash input from punters and hundreds of thousands being given away?
