I agree I received the same email last year and when I told them to send me the check in the mail to my P.O. Box I never heard from them again. LOL

I started collecting all of their garbage and after about two months I drove to the Jewel Osco, got out of the car, opened their door and slung all of that S*** right inside of the door. Right now, Jewel Osco has about another three weeks before I pay them another visit. Now why didn't I think of that?.

To bad that it is so far away from america.I get all of this junk mail from companies, the biggest junker is Jewel Osco. Oh how I hate that company. I would leave for three days and when I got home I would have 15 coupon papers in my mail box. It was so bad one time that the postal service stopped delivering my mail all together. The box was full so they stopped the service. Can you believe that? I didn't want the garbage in the first place!I tried everything, I called the post office and compla... [ More ]

For those who are interested, the United States Secret Service actually has a web page dedicated to scams of such nature because, sadly, many people have lost real money. One of the web sites dedicated to such issues http://www.secretservice.gov/alert419.shtml I have, in the past received email from a Nigerian type setup, a quick web search turned up what the entire process was. Scary part is, I was communicating almost realtime via email with those crooks. Over the course of an hour, I had se... [ More ]

I get these fraud letters in the mail and i have got them in many emails. It's fraud if you didn't actually purchase a lottery ticket then by all means you didn't win.The only site i know that buys tickets for you is free lotto if you sign up for the offer. When the Mega or powerball jackpot reaches a certain level they offer a promotion.Still the operative word here is sign up.

Amazing! My three winning e-mail notices I received last week had the same number on them! It's so cool how we both happened to choose the same numbers, and we're both big winners

Not sure if you're trying to be ironic or mean what you say. Do you remember having bought any tickets?Better check with this webpage to see if it's listed on Fraudwatch International.It seem to be listed under T - The National Lottery.

Sadly, so sadly (and not to put a damper on any excitement), but these are usually hoaxes. So-called recepients are required to send the organization a fee via western union in order to receive the money. I just say, if I've one so much money, just take out your fee and send me the rest...right?? Not so. I did some research when I received this type of email and discovered they are ALL hoaxes. I mean, how can you win a lottery without buying a ticket or selecting some numbers? Ya know?~I... [ More ]
