      It is not true, it is a scam being sent by thieves.

  • May 10, 2018 at 1:14 AM by an anonymous user from: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

    My partner recently was contacted via fb about how she had won $500,000USD and an apple laptop. And that we would be contacted my FED ex. We live in Australia, is this a scam?

    Because we have had calls from people claiming to be from immigration asking us to pay to get it out. We first paid 200, now they are asking for more money. I can't help but feel if this is a scam, any thoughts or ideas about what we should do?

    • May 10, 2018 at 7:36 AM by info

      Yes, it is a scam. Once you are asked to send money in order to receive a lottery prize, it is a scam.

    I got an email stating I won five hundred thousand US dollars from gmail outlook.com.

    They sent me a PIN number and wanted me to contact global courier services to find out

    what it would cost me. People need to beware, if it cost them to win something in the mail, they should check it out first.

  • April 21, 2015 at 12:23 PM by an anonymous user from: Maryville, Tennessee, United States

    I stupidly responded to the first announcement of winning which included my Gmail, home address, s*x, phone number, and age. What do I do now?

    • December 17, 2015 at 7:47 PM by an anonymous user from: Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

      Don't do anything, I just found out that Google and Facebook do not give out cash prizes. They are all scams.

      • December 17, 2015 at 8:05 PM by info

        Remember also that there is no Google or Facebook lottery.

    • December 15, 2015 at 3:39 PM by an anonymous user from: Aguas Buenas, Puerto Rico, Puerto Rico

      I did the same today, I wish somebody would tell us what to do?

    • April 21, 2015 at 2:09 PM by info

      Just be careful next time, because the scammers will attempt to use the information that you have sent, to trick you into sending money or more information.
