Beware of these Conmen!

Today I received this e-mail allegedly from 'the US Embassy' telling a lot of blah blah!
I know how that visa programme works so immediately I realized that this messge was from greedy people who want to gain through my back!

So I would like to put the e-mail in question here, in public, so that no one can get into their trap. They are after vulnerable people -so it is our duty to educate everybody on matters like this one.

If you applied for the visa (dvlottery) on-line, please visit the official US Federal Government (Department of State) website for more about such applications (please read the rules and regulations from the official website not from anywhere else).

..............................................................................
Now read the e-mail below from the conmen!
Remember:
'If the deal is too good to be true, then it probably is'
