The "Toyota Promo Bonanza" Lottery Scam

There is no "Toyota Promo Bonanza" lottery like the one below. Therefore, recipients of emails like the one below are asked not to follow the instructions in them; they should just delete the same emails. The fake emails are being sent by lottery scammers who are attempting to trick their potential victims into believing they have won some fake Toyota lottery.

Once the scammers have convinced their victims into contacting them, they will ask them to send money in order to receive their lottery prize. If the money is sent, the scammers or thieves will take it and disappear, leaving their victims thousands of dollars broke and depressed.
