Just a quick shout from us to say that a hoax email purporting to be from Nokia has been doing the rounds today.

The mail (printed below) is a typically poorly-written scammer-style hoax claiming the recipient has won a massive cash prize and asking for personal details – so if you or anyone you know receives it, ignore it and/or delete it. Our contacts at Nokia tipped us about this earlier and we think it’s a bit lame, but that’s life!
