I am a Senior Fraud Victim Advocate with Fraudaid.org , first of all what you have experienced is what we call a Fake Lottery Scam. It is designed for one purpose only and that is to get innocent and unsuspecting people involved in the fantasy of winning a ton of money. They use this scam to do one of two things:
Launder money by sending you a check with your winnings letter and instructing you to depsosit the check and send off a portion of it to pay so called fees and taxes to free up your winnings OR for the purpose of getting you to pay advanced fees to gain access to your winnings. Here are the cold hard facts:
1. If you did not purchase a lottery ticket , you could not have won that lottery. Why? Lotteries only exist on the money gained through the sale of tickets. The money they get from people purchasing tickets IS the money or at least a portion of that money that is dished out in winnings.
2. IF you have gotten a surprise winning notification and a check from a lottery company you had better verify that the lottery is real and that the check was indeed issued to you by the " Account Holder". Most likely that check is Counterfeit and you can wind up in a heap of trouble either with your bank or legally if you cash it.
NEVER EVER send money to anyone you do not know via services like Western Union, Money Gram etc based on a sales pitch or promise. Those services are widely used to scam people out of hard earned money. Why? Simply put... once that money is sent and picked up at the other end there is NO way to retrieve it or to recover your losses.

Always remember ...
Silence is a thief's best friend... word-of-mouth is his worst enemy! Spread the word.

This is to inform the public that i am also notified of the same (freeLotto) that i won several of their jackpot prizes, but to my surprised there are a lot of pre-requisites that i have to undergone like giving them my credit card number and so forth and so on.. why these people are taking advantage of other people just to enrich themselves... I hope that one day, God will give what is due to them.
I hope that one day, they will be judge accordingly. For heaven's sake.. STOP BEING A DEVIL'S DISCIPLE.

In Pakistan, banks confirm payout for every transaction..
So their fore free loto can't process the Paki Dude card number..
Its simple dont get greedy. Make your living guys! dont waste money on such things.
If you really want to, then go to some casino or stuff similar. As in most of such offers tht you find in your mail boxes are fraud.

This is not a mistake, provided you submit the winning entry in accordance with the official rules of FreeLotto you are guaranteed that prize award.

I would like to know whether it is true or fake
unsubcribe me from freelotto
this is total fraud i have also recieve e mails since two months
I have received mail from freelotto that I won the prize of $ 1,000,000.00. But I have not claimed my prize because it is surely a fraud!
I suspected something was strange when I was asked to fill in my credit card no., luckily I thought of surfing the web for more infor and found this forum.
I think we just have to be more careful when lots of money are being waved at us cos there is always a price to pay.
This freeelotto is a stupid thing in which they are sending so many mails intimating that i have won one million dollars this and that.. but every thing is fraud don't beleive and respond to the mails what they are sending to u k..
Im florence kilondi i am a winner and i dont have a visa card how do i go about it.
phidy27@yahoo.com please advice me
I reiceve the email says my check is a proved, I realy dont now whats going on.
I have been receiving messages from freelotto since last year December. My problem is thatthey keep on asking for my credit card number and i dont have it.WHY DO THEY NEED IT?. This is BS
Please people stop talking about Freelotto, you all know it is a SCAM but you just can't give up hope and want to belive it's not?
Last year I tumbled on Freelotto and even though I knew it's probably a scam I wanted to see how far can I go without giving money or my CVV.
Well I played once or twice free, then I thin about 2weeks later I got an e-mail saying I need to claim my price. Don't remember how much. But well, I did do it but only allmost like they wanted ;).
Instead of filling the information on they're website I send them an e-mail of all my info exept my Credit card number and CVV. Sure enought they took the bait, few days and THEY CALLED ME. And I live in Finand. Soo.. I can admit that when the call came I actually thought "well maybe they are for real". But no. They asked me a few things and last one was "do you have a credit card". I was like "hmm.. what do say" So i said NO. And the reply was "you dont have a credit card?" Again I said No
and after that all i heard was silence. She hung up right away :)
Now does that sound like a legit business people?
CVV is not needed to check your ID, never. All they would need is the number and thats pretty safe to give alone. But with CVV, bad things happen.
I AM NARENDRA KUMAR FROM INDIA. I WANT TO PLAY FRRE LOTTO GAME BUT YOUR SIDE IS NOT OPEN. QUESTIONS MARK IN YOUR SIDE IS THERE ARE NO LONGER TO ELIGIBLE TO FREELOTTO GAME THIS MASSEGE IN YOUR SIDE.
I received the first email from Free Lotto stating that I won a $ 1, 000, 000 prize. They wanted to verify my information and I did that exercise. I also asked to email to the above email address and the one I submitted first is no longer in use but they persisted to email it to the same address.

I agree that FreeLotto is a fraud. I fell for the USD$14.99 to play a few games. I then tried to cancel out but to no avail. Then I began to search the internet looking for ways to contact these people. I too live in Australia and yes I now see that I was gullible. If there is anyone who know how to stop these deductions can you please post note. I see that all above are over a year old. Wonder if there are any other fools out there more recent?

this free loto is bull ###:@ scam scam and scam
Thanks, for the comments. FreeLotto is also bombarding me with mail about winning so I checked on internet about complaints against them...well you guys have saved me.
Last april 9, 2008, i did a very stupid thing while i was surfing the internet. A message flashed across the screen informing me that i was the 200 billion something user of the internet and that i was to click the link to claim my prize. It was from freelotto.com. Now i keep receiving this message that i have a pending unclaimed winnings of US 1 million and US $300 which i did not claim. I surfed the net a nd found out that other people thrughout the world were receiving the same e-mail messages. And it's a nuisance because they keep on sending these e-mail. Now that i know it's a scam, i am even afraid to click the link that says i can unsubscribe. I do not wish to play the lotto and this letter is by way of a disclaimer and i don't want to subscribe. I haven't provided them any credit card info and i hope they back off.
i have 10milliondollar but do not know how to recieve it.
How do I know that you are not yet another false representative of Lotto?
I need advice, so there is no lotto that can be played through the net? One has to buy a physical ticket? What about the GreenCard Lottery that we are seeing on the Net? Advise.
hello, what i'm do ? but I don't have credit card and I winner 1000.000 $, please answer to my email. thanks.
dear, free lotto
you send me email i won one milleone dollare but how to get this prize please answare me.
I joined free lotto on 10/10/2007, and since then I been receiving e mails claiming that Im awinner Is freee lotto free?
What a pot of cr*p. Well as you all know by now, the same (word for word) email was send to me. For some reason i decided to google and thus the result. It would have been cool though.
