There are still people who fall victim to this scam, which has a couple of variations, such as:

1. Illegal websites visit warning (example in the attached picture)

2. Various winning notifications.
In the later category, you receive an e-mail from FBI, indeed fake, and are informed that – according to their investigations – you are a winner of an online “balloting system”.

FBI logo and a signature of a representative make it look official and you are required to collect your $600,000 by giving details of your bank account so that the money can be transferred.

As an alternative to the “win” in the “ballot” the scammers ask you to identify yourself for an investigation they are doing, or inform you that you got an inheritance and need to provide your personal data.

How to avoid: let’s put it this way - if the real FBI has something to tell you, they will be at your door.
