Well, it's from the U.K., so it's not some Nigerian scammer.

So I say - go for it, you lucky dog!

Man, for a prize that big, that's not a very big pool of email addresses, unless they counted fractions of email addresses, which would explain the decimal point. But, hey, they just didn't get the email addresses from the internet, they got them from the WORLD-WIDE-WEB. That's a lot bigger than the internet!

What are you waiting for? This is obviously on the up-and-up. All the clues are there to verify its authenticity. To wit:

We are delighted to inform you that you're a proud and Legitimate winner of Ј1.000.000.00. GBP (One Million Great British Pounds Sterling's) from the Coca Cola Anniversary Award.

Note, please, that "Legitimate" is capitalized. That's significant. That's a subtle clue to let you know that you are really "Legitimate," as opposed to "legitimate," which any scammer could use. And, as everyone knows, the correct plural for Pound Sterling is "Pounds Sterling's" (the adjective agreeing with the noun) and it's highly unlikely a Nigerian scammer would get this correct because it's such a subtle grammatical nuance.

You should count yourself extremely lucky for emerging as a winner of the Award Promotion. Your security is 100% Guaranteed as a file will be opened for you in our Office and your informations will be securely stored in our Database to avoid double claiming of funds and impersonation.

Here, again, they have picked up on the subtle British usage of the plural form of "information."

SUBMIT! Think of all the guitars you can buy with a million Pounds Sterling's.
