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.

so as for my it a bit similar what those people are saying .as a
matter of fact the authority concern must stop these sort of
robbery. and i think the suppose free lotto game if it is real

of the game. SO WHERE IS THE FREE LOTTO GAME INSTITUTION IS DOING ENCOURAGE THESE ROBBERS OR
DEFENDING ITSELF BY PERSUING THESE FRAUDULOUS
PEOPLE IN FRONT OF THE JUSTICE. I HOPE SO.

since 2007, I am receiving messages from my emails that i have won freelotto 3 times, since i dont have my credit cards, the winning prize remains unclaimed until now. and if i really won the freelotto lottery, sure all they have to do is to verify the true recipient winner, then award to them the prize. please help...
one can ask him self some questions, who are those guys who represent the freelotto company? how can they do their scams throuh the world wide ? could not they be reached by justice so as to free the innocent from their fraudulent behaviour? they must be some one and they must be living on earth! from where do they get such restless energy for writting victims for ever without getting tired of writting?!
Iwas awinner in free lotto they told me in message in many time but Idid not know how I got TSN which claime my prizes until now prizes are pending
Show to solve this problem
I joined the FreeLotto one month ago and am surprised to receive a 1 Million US Dollar check signed by Patrick J Chalmers with check number M98211.
I come from a poor family background and was surprised with the check. I also see people’s name that also have won and were paid. I’m sitting on a fence now.
Further, I do not have an international credit card but a local one which I use in my country - Papua New Guinea. With this check presented through email, I do not know what to do but just waiting to see if it’s going to really work out.
Please advice and comment.
Thanks.

i have 2 millions dolares and i want to giv this mony to may contrey
hawo to explaind me
when i visit this web site i realised that its not only my self is a victim of FreeLotto!
according to the emails i recieve from FreeLotto,
there adress is as folows
P.O.Box 4562

NY 10163
but still it remains as a serious question, why the U.S. government is not taking appropriate steps in order to stop these crooks in bothering people
i am waiting for a favorable response.
i was one of these people that got involved in that bull ### lottery scam. it keeps on sending me e-mails and checks to verify my credit card info to release my unclaimed funds. What i did was withdraw all my money out of my credit card account and opened a nother account to put my money in there, thereafter i then sent them my card no, 3 last digits and expiring date as requested, they then send me an e-mail back to say that this card was not valid.
Well my point excatly if there was any money in my credit card acc they would've withdrawn everything, but i was clever for them by submitting an empty credit card, i then thereafter went to the bank to cancel my hole account and explained my situation.
If this was free lottery, why in the world do they want your credit card details, no damm lottery or wise person in this world would evr want this information from you.

i have receave a messege from freelotto that i won many amounts but idont now how to claim.
I have been recieving e-mails from free lotto that I won a million. I was surprized how did it happen because never I play that freelotto game. I was only serfing in the internet when suddenly something flashes that I won and it was from freelotto. I was even convinced when I searched about ERIC PREVOST who won 10 Million as something to be factual.
I believe that these are just scams. I think I shoul beware of it..." pang exite lang to mga pre, huwag paloko"
Free lotto is total ###in ###. They do nothing but to get advantage of innocent people.
freelottto is nothing but a crap.
Don't believe on them. Beware of them.
yes i am a auisse battler trying to get a lucky break to get out of dept and needing some help from free monies on the net and trying to find a way to receive a helping hand by the wealthy and rich but there is no way you can get free money for nothing. i have tried every thing to find a way to win big but in vain, if there is any one who knows how to contact the rich and someone to help the stuggling aussie ...well let me know..and i will then help others...tony. p.s yes all the free lottos are scams.

Je joue a déclaré e-mail freelotto il ya 2/semain lorsque j'ai eu le libre accès à l'Internet et conservés sur des jeux très souvent pendant près d'un an. Ensuite, je me suis arrêté parce que l'accès à Internet est de plus assez pour moi.
Puis, un jour, Iopened ma boîte mail et a trouvé un message me disant que j'avais gagné 1 million de USD et j'ai dû confirmer mon NIP pour le paiement immédiat. J'ai essayé mais comme je n'avez pas et n'ont jamais obtenir une carte de crédit, je ne pouvais pas valider et à tous mes enquêtes ont été automatiquement une réponse. Je me suis dit cela a été une sorte de fraude. mais ils ont gardé l'envoi de message et moi avons fait tous les jours depuis. Et même dire que j'avais gagné 1 milion USD supplémentaires.
C'est la raison pour laquelle j'ai décidé d'écrire une lettre à M. Patrick J. Chambers à demander de quoi il s'agit. Pourquoi le maintien de m'envoyer des messages pour les prix je ne pouvais pas cash.I ne veux pas apparaître comme un miserabilist mais pour quelqu'un unempoyed pour une période aussi longue underdevelopped dans un pays comme lalgerie, il s'agit d'une unstandable la torture mentale, un type sans précédent de harcèlement. Et juste avant d'envoyer plusieur lettre je ne même pas se rappeler comment je obtenir pour ouvrir votre site Web.
PS: Je suis originaire d'un pays francophone et même si j'ai étudié l'anglais au collège, mon libellé mai apparaît étrange à certains d'entre vous. Désolé pour tout problème!
