ANother version is the same as the last but sent via the mail. Got one of those a couple months ago. Now that I did respond to but I don't think the scammers liked my response. I had teh "Front" payment delivered by a special agent (Postal inspector since they mailed it to me) and instead of cash they got a lovely set of matched stainless steel braclets made by Smith & Wesson company. A Free ride to a special "Hotel" Free room and board (After all asking for front money from a winner by US mail is a FEDERAL CRIME).
So you actually had the Post Office do something about it? Years ago I asked at my local Post Office about one of those Nigeria Prince scams, and they just rolled their eyes and said to ignore it.
