"USA Green Card Lottery" at usagreencardlottery.org - it is a Fraudulent Website

I signed up 7 years ago thinking I was in a legitimate lottery. I paid for a lifetime entry, they would submit my application every year. I paid over $300 US for this service. I got an email on May 1st stating that I was the successful applicant and had to pay $350 US. Thankfully my credit card didn't work.
I then tried calling the helpline number they were operating on.
It was out of service. Now finding out it was a Scam all along.
Completely gutted by this!
What a bunch of losers!

Www.Greencardorganization.Com is a scam. Www.Greencardorganization.Com is fraudulent.
i am very lucky but i was determined to go to the end once i realised i had been conned. Stupidly i paid around $4,500.00 altogether to these crooks. Yeah yeah i know i should have been smarter, that's what everyone says, but when it's a one to one on a cold call with professional crooks and liars it's a different story, especially when you have no time to think it over or you're down, tired, looking for a big change etc etc. They are very clever.
i was so angry with myself but in the end i made a full report to the local police and bank and after a few months my bank reimbursed all the money i lost. So full credit to my bank, who, evidently, found evidence of fraudulent behaviour. That leads me to believe that the authorities know more about these crooks than meets the eye.
look out "greencardorganization". You can't hide in isreal. You know there is no fee to enter the green card lottery program (i do now ;) ). You know the green card lottery program can only be entered through a legitimate site with a .Org extension, not with "org" in the website name (i do now :-) ).

I mean't to say .Gov extension. :)))))))

shudu@starmail.co.za
when I ask the guy to send me cofirmation of the legitimacy of his company,he never did, then I knew he is a scammer.

Received via email: "Good morning, I am just forwarding you this email, from the scam of green card lottery.org, with the phone number and email address, so you guys can keep track of these criminals. They call you, and when you tell them you can't speak, or to call you on a different day, they get mad at you or pressure you to continue, so they can get the money. My guess is that they change phone numbers and/or email addresses, but in case it helps, below the details of one of the participants in the scam. Regards, - Forwarded message - From: support@usagreencardlottery.org Date: Thu, Jul 5, 2018 at 10:21 PM Subject: Your U.S.A. Diversity Visa Application. User ID: 6076263 Dear, I tried calling you today and left you a message in regards to your Diversity Visa application. I would like to discuss your options for preparing your application and coming up with which plan best suits your personal situation. We need to talk so call me at your earliest convenience. Dial my direct extension. Regards, Victor 1-702-942-1728 x9472"

These people call you after you fill in the form, ask you for a bunch of personal data, and then tell you before continuing with the process you have to pay the fee. Once it was a regular american guy, who got VERY rude and mad when I told him I did not want to do this, and that I would continue the process myself (he tried to pressure me into continuing and paying 300€, which of course I didnt), and this year it was an Indian guy, but I already saw it coming so I told him I could not talk now, again, he got mad, and another colleague of his called me the following day.
I didnt pick up, and they sent me an email saying we had to talk ASAP, making it seem urgent. It stops if you just tell them you can't/won't pay for anything (I responded as if I was genuinely interested but lacking the funds so I couldnt afford it and they never responded or tried again).
They're disgusting. Can we report them to some authority in the US?

Total scam, took nearly $300US for an automated service designed never to complete. Plus, they lack the legal authority to act on your behalf. Complete confidence tricksters, with a very professional looking website.

05.27.2018...I paid 35 Dollars with my credit card for the entry and their advertised help. 1 hr later I got a phone call from a lady. She seemed nice. American. After 15 minutes of talking (be careful what you say... She is trying to get information and depending on what you say she determines how much money she is going to ask for) she wanted more money for their 'service'.
Exactly 2,500 Dollars more. I laughed at her and ended the conversation. I truly believe they definitely are a scam.

Hi, I have received an email today saying that I have been selected for a green card and that I should fill the forms and return by march 15th. No other details except my email. Could it be a scam?
Leonard.

Yes, it is a scam.

It very much is. Try asking them questions about the money they want to take, how, the security of your card details, and maybe even give them the wrong number, see how mad and rude they get.
