My husband received iwon lottery winner notification from iwon lottery agency from madrid but not through email but through mobile phone. We were so excited to know so we replied to the post email in the mobile. It said we won $1million but to my disappointment they were asking 2500 euro through western union bank for the legalization of the process of money bank transfer. How they were able to get my husbands mobile number. Scam or not?

Hey, no fair! I already won that lotto! Three times this month….

Actually it would be fun if you replied to see what scam they are pulling; I mean the details they want etc. How long could you string them along?

As an aside: You can break your 2 million bucks into 20 (or more) accounts (even at the same bank) of 100K or less and get the Federal insurance to cover the whole 2 million.

I was going to do that but I think it’s a scam.

Congratulations, man! I still have to earn money the old-fashioned way: helping Nigerian bureaucrats smuggle money out of their country.

Actually what happened was I won category 3, which means I only had the $2M. I suppose had I won category 1 I would’ve netted more of the $1.7B bucks. Maybe I should wait… with the strengthening dollar I could make more than two mil.

Wow, international taxes are harsh. So you get a lump sum payment of only 0.125%? That’s a shame. But at least the remaining 98.875% will go to a good cause, like finding WMDs. …Wait a minute, there are no WMDs! jim, watch out, I think this might be a scam.

For future reference, CALLE COLONE-28080 MADRID-SPAIN translates in Spanish to “This is a scam to get $28,080 from a gringo.” Careful out there, gringos.
