Santa Licia Security Company ripoff Loteria Primitiva MADRID Spain

I received same letter on 6/4/2005 with Spain stamp on it. The letter says that I have won an amount of $615,810.00 US Dollars which have divided from a total amount of $10,468,770.00 US Dollars shared among the international winners in the category. The letter stated that all participants were selected through a computer ballot system drawn from 25,000 names from Europe, Australia, Asia and North America. The letter also mentioned the ticket number is 031-1127-841 with serial number 3214-07 drew the lucky number of 21-22-39-41-49.

The letter was sent from
Loteria Primitiva
Plaza De Colon E-28833
Madrid, Spain
Tel: 01134-637-975-855
Fax: 01134-652-521-490
The letter was hand signed by

It was too good to be believed. I called the foreign operation manager, Mr. Anthonia Bravo of Santa Lucia Security at number 01134-627-134-127, right way. He instructed me to fill out the lottery payment processing form and fax it to 01134-655-172-163. I thought it could be a scam, but still could not resist possibility of big money. I went to internet by typing the keyword, Loteria Primitiva. I did see many pages in Spanish. It looks a real lottery name. I was starting to believe it could be true. I was so excited. So, I faxed the form with my name, BOD, address and phone number on it. I received a call from Mr. Bravo two days late. He told me he has approved the lottery payment to me. For the payment process, I need fax a copy of my driver's license or identification with $1,968 to the following address for a tax payment to Spanish Government. But the address doesn't like a government office at all.

I asked him why you don't simply deduct the money from my wining. He said they can not touch the money before I receive it. He also said $1,968 is not so much for you.
Sensing some thing strange, I decided to do more search. I went to Google and type the keyword, Santa Lucia Security Company. Thanks god I found an article, http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/ripoff137266.htm, right away. I finally wake up from dream. Thanks to rifoffreport.com and every one. I am lucky that I did not spend much time and money to deal with such bad people.

I hope those crime can be stopped and the bad people will be punished. I hope my store can help people from falling into the trap.

The incident told me again that nothing is free. If something come to easy, don't believe it at first.
