Online scammers are sending out fake "First Texas Lottery Award" emails like the one below. Therefore, recipients of the same fake emails or other lottery emails that request personal or financial information are asked not to follow the instructions in them. This is how scammers trick potential victims into disclosing their personal information and stealing their money.

Remember, once you are asked to send money or personal information to collect a lottery prize, it is a scam. So, do not be fooled by lottery scammers who make millions of dollars from gullible online users who they have tricked into believing they have won some so-called lottery.
