Complaint Review: THE UK NATIONAL LOTTERY & Mr Jefferson Peters Of ACORN

Mine is similar to a few rip off reports posted already. The same old trick.A certain Mrs. Elizabeth Walter of the National Lottery sends me email informing me to count myself extremely lucky to have emerged as one of their winners in this years lucky dip sweepstakes.

My email address was randomly selected along with others from over 125,000 website on the internet of which mine appearantly was attached to a ticket number'023-1111-790-458"with a BATCH NUMBER and a REFERENCE NUMBER. I was told that I have been approved to claim a total sum of 552,000,00. In order to do this I was referred to a dispatch agent, Mr Jefferson Peters of ACORN EXPRESS COURIERS L.T.D or at Tell: +44 70111 21763 / +44 70111 47485 Fax: +448 70479 5004 / +448 70974 3773 of Email: acornexpress_courierservice06@yahoo.co.uk to 'begin the final step' of claimimg the winnings.

Also, I had to complete a verification form provided in the email with scanned copies of my pasport, ID or any identififcation and sumit such to Mr Peters. I checked up on the internet and a company named ACORN EXPRESS COURIERS is registered but the emails from Peters only include the street address (namely UNIT 63,EVENS BUSINESS CENTER,BELGRAVE) without any contact details as provided by Mrs Walters. I got suspicious cos anyone can open and close accounts at any given time. Especialy after you have been forced to part with your hard earned money to claim your winning.
