I wish to inform you that you must not become a victim of online scam. These methods are often employed by persons perpetuating online scam. You must immediately report the matter to the local police authorities so that they can investigate the scam. Once the complaint has been lodged with the police, you may take permission from the police authorities and report the matter to Interpol. Alternatively, you may report the matter to the Central Bank authorities in Macedonia.

Any time one receives unsolicited mail telling them they have; won a sweepstakes or lottery, must send money to bail out a friend in trouble, won a trip, ANYTHING that requires the person to send money, or receive a money order, cash it at their bank and send them the funds, count on it being a scam, total fraud.

Only someone who expects something for nothing will be duped.
