I was looking in my junk suspects folder this morning, and found that SpamBayes had made a terrible error -- it had classified a note telling me that I had one the “International Lotto Programs” lottery and would receive $2.5 Million US if I contacted my claims agent.

Is this too good to be true?  Looks legit to me.   Lets ignore the fact that I have to keep my winnings strictly confidential (shh, don't tell), and even the existence of this lotto must be hush hush.  It doesn't worry me that I didn't enter it.  It doesn't worry me that they have no idea who I am or where I live, and so are asking me to give them that information(Along with a few other details).   Now I just have to find out what this “REF” file is they credited the $2.5M to, and I'll be sitting pretty.   I may have to send them a few dollars, but hey -- I've got 2.5M coming to me, so why be stingy?

Oh, and they gave me plenty of time.  I have to respond before February 30th, 2004.
