do you have a Duke Howard on your team sending emails out to say one has won ££££££££ emails
proposedly from exxonmobile
I, too, recieved and email that said I won money from EXXon Mobile. Duke Howard's name was used.
I too have recieved two similar notifications from Exxon Mobil within the past week. The first one I replied "yeah right". But the second one I was asked to contact Mr. Duke Howard for the money. I have just confirmed that the telephone nos in the email do not correspond with the numbers on Mobil website. I intend to print out the emails and fax them to Mobil tomorrow. I think they should be notified about all this madness going on.
It appears "DUKE HOWARD" is now using alias MATT DUKE> How can I help to "Catch" this guy ? He is giving away money under the fame of the Exxon Company. I would love to help put him under the "Spot Light". Maybe even get rewarded for doing so !
P.S. my pseudonym Mr. C.B. can be revealed if I am contacted and there is a serious search to find this person named Matt Duke. His Email address is
matt exxmobile@live.com Ref EMIA/2009-19513-07
Matt Duke is giving away $760,000 to me !!!! How NIce !!!
(I too was sent this fake stuff but i did contact exxon.)
