I won a jackpot from freelotto. My wife also won. Any many of my coworkers also won their jackpot. Now you. Wow
My guess is that everyone has won a freelotto jackpot and as soon as you give them your personal information to claim your prize, the crooks at freelotto have hit the jackpot.

Ask yourself these questions:
1. Did you enter? You must enter to win. You just don't win something without entering a contest.
2. Did you buy a ticket? The lottery works by having a bunch of people buy a ticket so that money can be added to the pot for the winner.
3. How many of those e-mails did you receive? If you've been getting a lot, don't you find it strange that you should be so lucky?
4. How is the money to be paid to you? Do you need a credit card # so that it can send the money directly to your credit card? Do you need to give out your bank account # so that it can deposit the money directly into your bank account? If if asks for your credit card # or account #, then you can bet that it's fake, and it's only out to scam out.
5. Is it too good to be true?
Hopefully by this time, you'll know that it's fake. It's not going to send you anything. It just wants your e-mail so that you can get spam, or it wants to scam you.

FreeLotto.com is a well known scam. They send e-mails to random people saying they've won prizes and try to get money, credit, and/or identity information from you.
If you didn't buy a ticket, then you didn't win. Plain and simple. Companies don't exist for the purpose of giving away free money to random people on the internet.
