Robin is in a coffee house using her computer with an Internet connection and receives an e$-$mail from someone in a foreign country informing her that she has won a foreign lottery. She is told that if she provides her banking information and social security number, the funds will be transferred to her account. She is also required to pay an upfront fee for the transfer. Robin had never entered the named lottery and the letter was a scam. What crime is the e$-$mail sender committing?
