According to a full page Ad that just popped on my Laptop I've just won a brand new iPhone from MM after opening the correct box. Tomorrow I'll probably inherit 2,000,000 from an unknown Aunt in Nigeria.!!!

Have you heard about the lady in Nigeria, wife of a former Government Minister, aunt of a well-known resident of North Cyprus, who died leaving $20,000,000 which she’d been trying to give away for years, but nobody wanted it?
S’true, so help me

No no it was a man - even seen pictures of the dosh piled up in a room

Seeing this post reminded me to check my Spam box.
There seem to be lot's of rich trusting people in Nigeria..... - here is today's version along with allegedly Amazon, Sainsbury, Asda and a couple of other scammers wanting me to claim parcels.
Those business' that sell e-mail addresses should be closed down.

I wonder if anyone at MM knows they have a prize waiting for me. Erol, can you ask on my behalf, thanks.?

Nothing to do with MM I am afraid. There is no prize. What you may have however is some kind of malware on your laptop

It was only joke Erol, just like Nigerian letters which most of us have had from time to time (although I hope you're wrong about malware) I've just had laptop redone from top to bottom because of a worm which brought everything to a complete stop and took hours to put right.

It may not be malware but if you are getting pop ups like this regularly even when you visit legitimate websites then it is something to consider I would suggest.
