Hi davidfhu, and welcome!

This is 100% a scam. A pretty straightforward variation of the Lottery scam. The scammer is even nice enough to warn you up front that there is a fee required of you before you can get your winnings. Real lotteries don't have this! Of course, real lotteries require that you enter before you can win, too.

Hi davidfhu and welcome.

Let me make a slight correction -- not a possible scam, but a real scam.

The header is showing the IP is pointing to Nigeria:

Header Analysis Quick Report
Originating IP: 41.138.171.42
Originating ISP: Visafone Communications Limited
City: Lagos
Country of Origin: Nigeria
* For a complete report on this email header goto ipTRACKERonline

There is no Etisalat Telecommunication Network donation/grant or lottery. You can't win something you never entered and no one is donating/granting money randomly across the internet.

Thanks for posting this up!

-- Oops! Was posting at the same time as Jim.

Thanks for posting davidfhu. As Dora mentioned, it is not a possible scam. It is a real scam attempt.
Here is the same type of communication from a couple of years ago.
