DID YOU KNOW ITS ILLEGAL FOR AMERICAN CITIZENS TO PLAY
AN INTERNAATIONAL LOTTERY???AND SINCE I KNOW I NEVER
ENTERED ANY LOTTERY AND I DONT WANT TO BREAK THE LAW I
STRONGLY SUGGEST YOU @#%$ OFF AND STOP TRYING TO SCAM
ME OUT OF WHAT YOU THINK I MIGHT HAVE.
NEWSFLASH: IM BROKE, I HAVE NO MONEY AND IM NOT GIVING
YOU MY BANK ACCOUNT NUMBER OR PAYING YOU A "PROCESSING
FEE", AND BECAUSE YOU AGGRAVATED ME SO MUCH I THINK IM
GOING TO REPORT YOU TO THE SCAMBUSTERS SO THEY CAN
BROADCAST YOUR EMAIL ADDDRESS ON THE INTERNET TO WARN
UNSUSPECTING FOLK YOU WISH TO SCAM!!!!!!!!!
Dear Madam,
I think you are rushing into a wrong conclusion.
I dont have any reason to deprive you of your hard earned money, rather
the lottery is an avenue to alleviate the life of the poor folks. The funding
is from Mulitinationals Firm, and we are non-profit oriented.
What you stated about the law prohibiting US citizens from playing international
lottery is not true. We have had past winners that are from US.
A lot of our past winners have entertained such doubt as you did, but at
the end they came back and showed their gratitude.
I am not pushing you, or trying to convince you. Rather it seems you are
not aware on how the lottery is conducted. It is from email addresses shortlisted
from the internet. And each of this email address is linked/attached to
a lottery ticket number. With the aid of a computer software, the computer
will randomly select lottery ticket numbers, and the email addresses linked/attached
to the selected ticket numbers emerged as the winning email addresses, and
we will subsequently notify their owner/registers/
So, you email address was among the lucky email address that was attached
to a winning ticket number selected by the computer.
If you still want to proceed, contact our payment department, Mr. Steve
Lewin, with this information:

I wait for your reply.
