British Lottery Scam
Can five million Britians be duped? Yes, according to a study done by the British consumer protection organization Which?. Which? contacted more than 1000 Brits to see how widespread the scam problem is in the U.K. The results?
- More than 28 million of 60 million citizens had been exposed to one or more scams.
- Five million of those 28 fell victim to a scam.
- The most popular scam related to "an automated phone call that invites people to claim a prize. A third of adults have received such a call and two million have responded, usually by calling a premium-rate number, which can cost up to GBP 1.50 ($2.70 U.S.) a minute."
The funny thing is that I've even seen people outside the U.K. fall victim to these international lottery scams. Here's a typical email that arrived in our honeypot inbox this week:

As I was saying, I've received email from U.S. residents wondering if they'd really won after receiving an email like this. They never questioned how they'd won even though they weren't residents of the country where the lottery was held and had never even entered the lottery.
Greed makes us stupid, doesn't it? That's what the scammers count on.
UPDATE!
Many of you have also received snail mail versions of this scam. In this scam you receive a letter saying you've won as well as a check for $3,000 - $4,000 dollars to cover the taxes and processing fees - supposedly.
Anyway, listen up people.
This is a scam. The check is fake.
It may initially be accepted at your bank but will eventually be worth absolutely nothing. So when you deposit it and then send them a check from your account, you will lose money.
Ask yourself... Why would they send you a check and then have you send them a check right back for the same amount? Does that make sense? It does if you're trying to scam someone.

Gambling is the worst addiction. In the past one year my husband has been buying lottery tickets incessantly, lying to me, and staying out the entire night. He has got us into so much of debt that we had to sell our car. I usually find him glued to megamillions and play lotto.

Cash Making Opportunities - The Beginning The working life is already tough enough, but the worries of being out of work was even tougher. The unsecured working environment have prompted me to search the internet for an alternative source of extra income so that I could learn how to Make Money Work for me and be Financially Independent. I listed down a number of Free Internet Business Opportunity Ideas while researching ways how people earn money online while working-from-home.......

AIB send a email that give me two choice of payment that bank to bank transfer or i have to open a new account for AIB to make my winning money funds trnsfer. i get confuse that is it true that i never play or buy a ticket lottery.
lady
is that true that i won the money from us yahoo internet lottery inc on 4th November 2009 ?
could you tell me now ?
I was wondering a little as it doesn't have a deadline and it doesn't say not to tell anyone. On the other hand, the email comes from Australia, is addressed to someone in Canada and is supposedly the British Email . Hello?

Jeffrey, you aren't the only one to receive this offer. It was likely spammed out to thousands/millions of email addresses.
It is a scam. Let me repeat that. It is a scam.
Scammers will lie to you because they want to scam you. Do not send any money or personal information.
That's all you really need to know.
JEFFREY NEMITZ
Today I recieved an e-mail from a mr. Phill Williams via a "microsoft promotion" stating that I have won 650,704.00 GBP complete with a ticket #, batch #, ref #, as well as his "address" in london, UK
so....... I sent him an e-mail back stating that "this is a con ...right"
too which he replyed that the money was being held by a security firm and that to claim the funds I would have to pay $120.00 USD for them to release it to me. note;
I never entered / ordered / or payed for a "british lottery" ticket.( though if I have won this amount I surely will take it ! ) this sounds way too good to be true, am I the only one to have this "offer" sent to them ?

I was in the UK for 5 months, the date they said that I entered the lottery on was 2 days before I left. It was weird because my mate an I would do something like that and I would enter the email address cause I thought hey what the hell... so I get the email and was like...wow... then i looked up the address hahaha.. oh man.... i have so many debts this just fucked my night uup.
true deal
1-this place requires your Email address to post reply (put something fake)
2-they can use all the info you gave them.
jesus-saurus rex
I sent my info in, but not my money, i believed it because i wanted to get that money. Can they use anything from that or am i safe. I read it like ten times then i found flaws in the grammar that they wouldnt have had if it was real. And then i googled it and got here. So, can they use my name, address, age, job, and that list they asked for? Can I do anything about it to stop them?

Hello, I'm from Colombia. The last June 22nd, 2009 I recieved an e-mail where they told me that my e-mail address has won £1,000,000.00 (One Million British Pounds Sterling) in Uk Lottery held Sat 20th June 2009 and two certificates... the first one AWARD WINNING CERTIFICATE from British Lotery and the second one INSURANCE CERTIFCATE from Old Mutual Insurance Company. Then, I must answer them and give them my personal information: Bank name, Bank Account No., private phone, etc. but in the first certificate the year's date is incorrect: there said 2008... so, it's a fraud... please take care

Here's what I can't understand...in this day and age where scamming is prolific, people still want desperately to believe that they have actually won a million pounds in a lottery they never even knew existed.
Seriously people, wake up! No one gives cash away for nothing, and certainly not through random selection.

What I find very interesting is the fact that these supposed "Brits" have a very poor command of the English language. Spelling is terrible as well.
