I've always recievd a message saying that I've won a prize like this or with the amount of this and that.. but everytime I claim my prize, they are asking for my credit card number. I wonder why do they have to ask that.. then i just realize it is a scam.. Have you ever experienced that? and what are their promises to you?

Yes, I have received emails saying that I have won things, and I have also received emails from someone posing to be Paypal and EBay which are not. People are finding more innovative ways to scam people each and every day.

I receive those types of emails all the time and they are annoying. I delete all of them. They are just a scam trying to get you to send them your banking information.

Yes, I get a couple every day. It's best to not even open them....just send to your spam folder and forget them.
