Lottery winner scam via text message and phone calls 
 Scammer
  Information
Name:
H. James
Email Address:
hjames671991@gmail.com
Telephone:
447984161475
I received a text message stating,

\"Congratulations! Your mobile number was selected as a lucky winner of S1,500,000,000 on UK LOTTERY Draw with Draw number 626404. Email hjames671991@gmail.com for claims\"

Then the following day, he attempted to call me. I know a few other people who also received the same text message. My general rule is, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Be careful folks.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell. And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can. So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
