BMW: Bogus e-mails Bearing BMW Name Continue Dropping In

This is the second time that we’re bringing fraudulent BMW e-mails up to your attention, but better safe than sorry. The first bogus BMW e-mail came to our attention a couple of months ago and it was entitled ‘International Awareness Promotion Department of the BMW Automobile Company’. This one bears the name “BMW Group Prize Award, Public Relations Department BMW Group”. Once again, we won a million British Pounds –lucky us… and all we have to do to collect is hand over all of our personal information. As we noted last time, BMW has already issued a issued an official announcement warning people of the scam. Spread the word guys. –See the spam BMW e-mail we received after the jump
