the named above company ripped me off and i dont think that is right it looked so real so i did what it said which was send in a five dollar money order but never heard anything back from them so i got on here and looked to see if the company was real and come to find out it wasn't. I am a disabled person who has alot of bills and got my hopes up so i could pay my bills and get things taken care of that i cant take care of with what i make a month. its messed up that someone would take advantage of poeple like me or anyone in that matter. so i hope this matter will be handled in the right manner. i hope that the poeple that did this are brought to justice. thank you

Consider yourself lucky if all you lost was $5. That is a new twist on an OLD SCAM. THE LOTTERY AND SWEEPSTAKES SCAM HAS BEEN AROUND FOR QUITE A WHILE.
The go after people just like you who naively assume its legitimate and cannot afford to lose money.
Usually they send you a bogus check and require that you WIRE most of it back to them. The check bounces and you have to pay the bank back IF NOT GET ARRESTED FOR PASSING BAD CHECKS.
YOU HAVE TO BE SMARTER THAN THE SCAMMERS AND THAT MEANS CHECK EVERYTHING OUT - NEVER ASSUME IT IS LEGITIMATE.
