I won the lotto!!! Another scam
I just won the UK Lotto sweepstakes! 1,000,000 pounds! Oh… hang on! No I haven’t! I never have…never will. Neither will you or your dad or that annoying guy who works at the local 7-11. You see it’s another scam to get your personal details which will allow the crook access to possibly your bank account, identity, credit card and maybe your wardrobe safe where you keep your priceless art collection.
So how do I deal with these emails? Keep reading.

Reply from me—
Dear Maria,
My wife and I are extremely overjoyed at this news and can’t believe how wonderful this is. You are an angel.
To think what this money will do for us. Especially now that my dear wife of 48 years, Margaret, who has been suffering extreme rectum cancer for the last 3 years, can get the expensive medication she needs in order to live.
Only last month we had to put the family home on the market in order to pay for the painful anal suppository treatments that prevent the cancer from eating her intestines. Sadly, she’s lost all bowel control and occasionally excretes foul green feces in our bed. As we cannot afford a fulltime stay at home nurse, I’ve been having to take care of her as well as clean the bedsheets on a daily basis. I am handicapped and have to get around in a wheelchair, so you can see our lives will be a little easier now we have won this huge amount of money.At this stage we are in the process of moving to our sons home while our house is being sold. We all live in the same fortified compound, but as we don’t recognise the country’s legal and tax system we also don’t really have an address, due to the federal government’s injunction on land squatting rights. Only last week did satan’s army of so called FBI agents try to ambush our chosen paradise, shooting and killing our dear leaders 7th wife, Hillary. Luckily it started raining feircely, a sign that the holy father of Neptune Vega Ohmm is watching and taking good care of us all. He brought you to us with this wonderful prize… an amount that will not only help my wife live, but will also go towards the purchase of guns, grenades, rocket launchers and mines to keep the whole herem safe.
If we were to set up an escrow account, say Pay Pal, for you to deposit our winnings into, that would be great. Do this then send me a confirmation email and I will ask for your name to be dedicated to the new fallout shelter being built against the imminent judgement day and arrival of the mothership to take us all home.
Love and Ohm Bah Lro73Kaa.
David Mootka.
