Weird; this is the email i received; with a 4k attachment to open as a Google doc; view; or download. notice the "to" field isn't even filled out. So curious to open the file but do not dare to; I'd probably blow up my server or turn purple or something.  nono

I found this while doing my weekly "google myself for wins"
http://www.chillicothegazette.com/article/20100821/NEWS01/8210313/Police-warn-prize-winner-phone-calls-are-a-scam

The individual asks for the alleged "winner" to wire Western Union $760 to an "Edward Davis" in Palo Alto, CA 95331

Side note: Total heartbreaker for my name to pop up connected to "+Winner", and its this scammy bs
