NONE OF THEM ARE REAL!
It's a phishing scam, period .You didn’t enter a lottery. All you are going to win is an empty bank account and more trouble than you ever dreamed of. If you want to bother, forward the fraudulent email to phishing@cc.yahoo-inc.com, spam@uce.gov, and 419.fcd@usss.treas.gov.

First of all do you remember entering the lottery? Mostly likely they are looking fo r a sucker. If you do not believe me, go ahead give them your personal info.

No, for god's sake, they are not real. How would you win a lottery you never entered? If you did win, why would they contact you by e-mail? If you did win, why would they need personal info about you? Not real, not real, not real.

99.999% are rip off schemes pure and simple. If you didn't buy a lottery ticket, you can't have won anything.
Even if they are legal, you have to pay a ruinous income tax on them.

According to what I have heard and seen on the news about these, they are scams. If you do get them you should throw them out. But if you are still curious, you can access the Better business Bureau and verify it. Always remember....... If it sounds to good to be true.......... It probably is. Good luck.

.....Ask your government so they found out you are engaged
in foreign gambling. If they do not help you, it is because they
have other things to do than pander, to your baser instinct.
Beware of Nigerian scams and scamp artists.

You don't have to do anything. Take my word for it. They're not legal. They're scams.
