Please note that an SMS is being circulated stating: “Your number has won 91,000 (GBP) in the ongoing Nokia Mobile Promo. For Claims contact +44 704 572 1355 and email [email protected].”
The recipient of this SMS is informed that their number has won a large cash prize of GBP 91,000. They are then asked to submit, by phone or email their personal information, including a bank account number to confirm that they are indeed the winner.
Nokia has informed that this is a HOAX and that they have not initiated any SMS campaign to win cash or any other prizes related to the mobile device owner. Nokia is investigating this issue and is committed to taking the necessary measures against the individuals who have made these fraudulent calls in the name of Nokia.

For me these things is like....duh. But strangely enough for others, they think they Really won allot of money. Ai

People are still too gullible for these kinds of traps.
 
Yay, I'm another one of the winners to get 91.000 GBP. :P
I can't believe that those scammers got their hands in SMSs as well.

I just hope that ppl are aware of the scames that are circleing the globe and know how to check the related info before they reply?!
