The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) is a real bank, and these scammers are trying to convince you that you have "won their lottery." In the first place, no one chooses lottery winners by e-mail address. You have to go and actually buy a paper ticket with cash. So if you didn't buy a ticket, you didn't win. Second, corporations such as Microsoft, Honda, Yahoo, and Shell do not hold lotteries. It's very likely that ICBC doesn't, either. Banks make much better money with interest than they would with a 5 percent lottery profit, and when's the last time you saw tickets for sale at a bank? So please do not believe any scam-mail hype that you supposedly "won the lottery," because you didn't. For more Lottery Scam samples, Click Here.
