Not a chance. Why would Google ever need your drivers license or passport?


Google "James Harny Google CFO"

You get nothing
 
You can also Google the phone numbers to learn some interesting things:

(from 419scam.org):
If an email mentions a UK phone number starting with +4470, it usually means that the sender of that mail is not in the UK at all and it is almost guaranteed to be a scam.
 
I'll add

3) How many Chief Financial Officers misspell their company's name in their official correspondence?

This is nothing more than a variation of the "419" scam emails from alleged Nigerian princes, widows of Col Gadaffi etc. The best thing to do is bin it, after reporting it as spam in Gmail, of course. :)

couldn't have put it better myself :D
 
your instincts are good.. listen to them

I know you want to be real.. hoping it to be.. wishing it to be.

I get this type of email 3 times a year. and I have several email address in different services, with fake information.
I get the same emails .. each winning the same prize... hhhhmmm...
how can there be multiple 1st place winners?
 
I think the scam is having the new guy show up posting what we would normally get in our inbox and having discussion further bump it to the top of the forum.

Anyone disagree, drop me a line.
