congrat!lottery winner. your mobile attached to ticket no RV5557772FS, won $1,116,000.oo call +34680684997 or infodesk@winndesk.org.

that is what i received on my mobile telephone inbox.
i called the number and asked where this location is. the lady who answered sounded strange and unsure. my first instinct kicked in that something was not correct. she said that the they are a lottery company.
i asked how i could collect my winnings. she said to send and email to above email address with my name, mobile number, and ticket number.

i did so and immediately received a long email about how i was chosen from a random draw of mobile numbers and so on and so forth. they listed the name of the coordinator and her picture. microsoft was also mentioned. it looked very legit.

so i emailed them back again to receive my prize claim certificate, my payment processing form, and a long letter about how i have to go about "legalizing my documents"

at the end of the letter, i was told that i can either come down "hear" to spain to legalize my documents, or that a lawyer there could do it for me free of charge.

in the end, they also told me that the legalization process will cost me a sum of 2,500 EURO. and that i can send the sum to them through western union money transfers.

i got on the net and researched all of this crap and found out what a scam it is.

i took the time to fill out this report, hopefully to make sure that no one falls for this scam.

take care and beware!!!
