Internet Lottery Scams
Mrs. Cherry Rings, Claims Agent (2007)
This is one of a collection of fraudulent lottery announcements. We don’t send these messages! We collect the ones we receive and document them for the benefit of others who may be tempted by the con artists’ offers. (How do lottery scams work?)
If you’ve been a victim of a scam like the one shown below you may wish to contact an attorney or law enforcement officer in your state or country.
