UK National Lottery, OCS Overseas Courier Service ripoff, scam artists

Below is a copy of the letter sent to me after several e-mails conserning winnings with the UK National Lottery. After receiving this e-mail asking for money from me, I checked them out at the better-bb, but could find no informaion on them. Probably because they are overseas. But luckily I checked them out here on the bad-bb.

I too received a letter like the one listed on your web site from The UK National Lottery. After several e-mails, this is a copy of the final 'hook' letter trying to get you to send between $664.21 up to $1, 033.98 in order to have your winnings sent to you.

Luckily I avoided being defrauded, by checking them out first on the bad buisness bureau.

Thank you.

"This is to inform you that you have been officially
cleared for payment by the Verifications Dept. at the headquarters of the UK National Lottery.

The original copy of your certificate from the British
Government stating that the money was obtained legally through their National Lottery will be sent to you or your bank as soon as you meet with any of the option selected and your winnings will be couriered or transferred to you immediately.

You can now begin the final step of the claims process, which is the transferring of your winning prize to you. With regards to this, there are three options open to you, you are required to select the most convenient of the three. The options, together with their associated conditions are presented below:

OPTIONS:
Courier of your winning draft to you via any of this
channel listed below:

OCS EXPRESS DELIVERY (2working days)
Mailing... 75.00
Insurance... 450.00
Vat (5%)... 044.75

Vat (5%)... 019.00
TOTAL... 366.00===$664.21

The insurance company declined reverse payment for the
courier, stating that it is against their professional policy towards ensuring the safe delivery of the draft to you. That if a reverse payment is made, and something goes wrong, that we/you cannot sue the courier company or insurance company to recover the full value of the fund as stipulated in the draft since payment for insurance cover was not made at point of mailing.

With the above reason, reverse payment is ruled out.

Note that your prize is protected by a hardcover
insurance policy by GEOTRUST INSURANCE COMPANY, which makes it impossible to deduct any amount from the money before it has been remitted to you. This means that the above charges cannot be deducted from the prize and
hence must be provided by you before your prize is transferred to you.

Please respond to this email by making a selection
from the options above and make payment.
