i just got an email from the above telling me that i'd won $485000 + a new SUV. im only reporting this as it was alot more sophisticated-looking than the previous junk emails i get of the same nature.
for example: i got the email telling me go to the above website and then to input a username + password (which was provided with the email) and then to fill out a form with my personal details in order then to claim my winnings. plus right at the bottom of the page they wanted a scanned picture of my passport/drivers licence.
i haven't entered any competitions so i don't know where they got my email from. i just googled the above company's web address and noticed someones commets about being scammed in one of the searches.
this immedietly heightened my suspisions even more and so i decided to report them to you which im doing for the first time as i found this page in the said google search quite by accident. any way no damage was done and i didn't give my details.

The site is almost certainly a scam. The main web site you click on from the email, shezyaxin.com which is supposed to be a Chinese company is currently hosted on a server in Australia. The domain name shezyaxin.com was only registered on 15th November 2011.
There is another, apparently legitimate, company with a similar name.
The form on the web site is hosted on the same server, however, the form has two parts. The second part of the form is hosted on a server in the United States.
Lastly, the second web server in the United States appears to belong to a legitimate company but would appear to have been hacked for the purposes of this scam and hosts part of the form.
The scam appears to be one of sending copies of your identity documents (passport/driving license) to secure your non-existent prize (identity theft) and then in order to get the non-existent car shipped to you you need to make a payment to them to cover shipping and handling (fraud).
