Urgency/Secrecy Letters demand a reply within seven days and often instruct you to keep your "win" confidential.
Claimed locations are often in Switzerland or London but are fake or misused locations.
Scam mail is often personalised using the recipient's name throughout the letter, as well as on images such as certificates and cheques.

Artwork uses seals or crest and fonts that suggest they come from a financial institution or official body.
Words like "guaranteed" or "100% genuine" are used and precise amounts of money are described.
Signatures claim to be from officials with senior ranking titles and identification numbers.
