And you want this how?

I had to laugh. I got an obvious pfishing email. It reads (in full):

I have been directed to inform you that you have been chosen for a cash
grantof 1,000,000.00 POUNDS by the board of trustees of the above stated non- governmental aid organization UK INTERNATIONAL LOTT. Your grant number is 73/7112/EsD.
Contact Mr Ben Andrew

Please provide him with the under listed information,

1. Full Names.
2. Residential Address.
3. Phone Number.
4. Occupation.
5. Sex.
6. Age.
7. Nationality.
8. Present Country of residence


And exactly how is this scam going to work? There is absolutely no indication as to where to contact our dear Mister Ben Andrew, even if I had it in my heart to give away my personal information to a stranger. No links, nothing.

This is one for the D'oh awards.
