I received the following on hotaussie.com. Did respond because of the amount but didn't think that they would actually pay 5000, more thought it was up to 5000 pounds. A man by the name of George Miller got in contact with me, one of the problems I found in his "paper work" was that there was no company registration, no proper format, no proper letter head or company logo with the e-mail, then I noticed he is using "gmail". I requested a company number and then came accross this spam notice.
