Was it really duplicated in the original email? That indicates someone being sloppy. And I doubt Chevron or Texaco would give out $750,000 that sloppily.

See this link Click Here regarding the name Chevron/Texaco.
2001, Chevron Corporation acquired Texaco to form ChevronTexaco.

On May 9, 2005, ChevronTexaco announced it would drop the Texaco moniker and return to the Chevron name. Texaco remains as a brand under the Chevron



And click here for the results of a search on the email address, which anyone from Chevron wouldn't use. ;)

oh it was duplicated in the subject line
and nothing in the email itself
the funniest part of this is i was talking to a guy from myspace
he started telling me he was in the oil bussiness but he said something about shell i think?
of course i see the scammer for what he is and tell him to go away i dont have money to give him!!
a little while later i get this email...conected??? i dont know but ran his ip and it said kenya..he was supose to
be in texas...

Try googling the claim number. I'd imagine that your personal ID number isn't all that unique.

Even if it is a new script, I can assure you that you will never win a lotto that you didn't enter, and no company would give a big pile of money to a random email address.
