This is one of a collection of fraudulent lottery announcements. We are not the source of these messages and we don’t send them! We just collect the ones we receive as junk mail and document them here for the benefit of others. We are not able to respond to inquiries about them. Information about legitimate online lottery services is available elsewhere on the Internet.
If you’ve been a victim of a lottery scam like the one shown below you may wish to contact an attorney or law enforcement officer in your state or country.
