See http://www.orangefrogproductions.com/ofp2s_home.shtml and it's links for full-fledged examples of Scams, Infomercial stuff, and Spam, including some of those little ones that ask you to link to a non-defined site (999.999.999.999). Most, if not all of them try to load Malware on your computer. (see the link on the above page for what Malware is, too.) You have just won thousands or millions of dollars in a lottery you never entered. You have the correct last name of someone overseas who has died with thousands or millions of dollars left in a bank account none of their family knew about. Someone overseas needs someone (you) to accept transfer of thousands or millions of dollars to an account, and (usually) send them a few hundred or thousand so they can escape somewhere. (Usually from Nigeria or tied through the UK, though China's been added recently). (ACTUALLY, ANYTHING from Nigeria, probably!) There are many more listed above. Check it out.
