Thats the first one, then I replied:

Dear Alex Zen Baldwin,

I would like to claim my $500,000 immediately. I dont want to lose it due to not responding on time. So if you could reply and tell me what I need to do to claim the money, that would be great.

Thanks for your time,
Patrick Dylan Munley

You're an idiot.

[Gabriel013]

definitely a scam.

Send one back saying that they can take it out of your winnings and forward the remaining amount. See what they say to that.

[Game Developer]

Dear Patrick,

I have $100,000 that I no longer need, so I will give it to you. Please give me your checking account or credit card number so I can transfer this money. I would just send you cash, but there's this new idiot law that was passed or something, so I need to do it this way. Thanks for your time and I hope to God you're a sucker.

Sincerely,

Vladamir Zimboka
