After getting yet another of those annoying pop ups, it informed me I could play a free lotto game unpon registration. Now everthing about this site has a legit feel about it. Well almost. As you go through the process the last page then requires a credit card payment of $14.99US/month telling you thats less than 9c per game. Hang on didnt it say "FREE" lotto.indeed it did.
Its at this point I realised something was up so I closed down the web page and thought nothing more of it, as I had not completed the process. Then Hello, I suddenly recieved a "transaction serial number". Hmm I had not made any transactions.in fact I did not even complete the process. So I thought I'll just see what happens.
Then Whammy omg wow I have won 1 million in one, then 50,000 on another and 300 in another. Quick confirm your TSN by such ans such date to Claim your million dollar prize. Woohoo, pretty exciting hey.
The TSN I recieved was then claimed by them to be invalid and the winning prize claim was denied. Hmm click link to claim prize and "enter credit card details AND 6 more games at $14.99US/month before any validation can occur, yeah right.
This all happened over the last weekend, since then I have recieved no less than 6 emails from them ALL claiming I have won millions and millions of dollars. But can not claim it until I pay them $14.99US/month. Now anyone in their right mind would think, I'll pay 15 dollars to claim that million without hesitation. As I did, luckily my cc number was not entered correctly and no payments were made from me to them. I got suspicious and googled them to find your Report on them here.
Bless you. This has all the hallmarks of an internet scam I realise this now, but my life situation finacially is so bad that I was almost desperate enough to fall for it.
Freelotto is a scam that much is clear and I thank the people here for reporting it and I am more than happy to back any of them up.
Karma will get them, we all know this. Well it looks like its all we can hope for as the so called Authorites seem powerless to stop this sort of behaviour or are just imcompetent who knows.
