If you have received any information via
email etc about winning a lottery for which you have not bought a ticket,
then the chances are this is a scam. Contact us
if you are in any doubt, but do so before you part with any money or
personal information.
If you are aware of a scam that is not listed
here, let us know and we will post it here for all to see.
Do people really still believe they can
try to con us by sending email saying "you've won the Blah Blah Lottery"
when we haven't even purchased a ticket to take part in it? and why do these
scummy individuals always seem to prey on the elderly?
A lot of these scams seem to be about
identity theft, not just about conning money out of you. Make sure you
do not sent any information or money to these people.
Remember This...
If you have not bought a ticket or do
not have some form of membership details for a syndicate etc...
YOU HAVE NOT WON
