Complaint Review: BINGO LOTTERY INTERNATIONAL - BINGO LOTERIJ AGENCY - Western Group Loterij Agency

I received this e-mail this morning about having won $500,000 in some "international lottery drawing" I don't recall ever entering. They said it was a collection of e-mail addresses that was chosen by computer.

I tried locating them on RipoffReports.com, but they weren't listed. So, I answered their e-mail. They only asked for my name, address, and phone number. However, they sent me a "claim form" to fill out.

I checked out fraudaid.com. The information they give for these international lotto scams sounded *exactly* like the e-mail I received. I'm glad I didn't send anything else in.

If you receive an e-mail from any free e-mail site (like I did), delete it immediately or forward it to the abuse department that hosts it. The problem with these alleged "international e-mail lottery" scams is that they're trying to steal your identity and use it to make unlawful purchases that you will be saddled with.
