Is there any way to report it? Or is the only action I can take is no action?
I wonder how many people have fallen for it? Congrats! you won the British lottery, give us your personal details...

It's pretty pointless to report it, seeing as millions of them are sent each day sad.gif

And unfortunately many people do fall for it, along with all the other fraudulent emails sad.gif
