It has come to our attention that e-mails are being sent to people claiming that they are the beneficiary of a cash donation, grant or prize from Shell Foundation, as part of a United Nations-backed scheme or as part of a Lottery. Some of the e-mails include a fake "certificate of entitlement". Typically the e-mail will ask for your personal details and will ask you to reply to an e-mail address (which may include the name of Shell Foundation or one of its staff in an effort to appear authentic). These are scam emails. Please do not respond to these emails. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in this matter. Kurt Hoffman Director, Shell Foundation
