How the scam works:

The victims receive an email out of the blue telling them they won a Google lottery: £950,000 and a Google Nexus 10, plus the status of Google Ambassador for using Google products. A previous fake site used in scam - googlefps.co.uk - is no more active. The fake site was registered by the same Ronald Moss Michael. The same registrant created other two sites, a so called lawyer office and a fake FCA Complaints office.

sandbell-lawfirm.co.uk was registered 02-Jan-2014.
