It looks like you will going on a trip to the UK to collect your lotto prize.
These mugus are good and have cover all the avenues for them not to pay any shipping cost, but are expecting you to fly there.

Tell the mugu you will in the UK during the first week of January

So ask the mugu for the offcial Winning Notification and the copy of the verification from.

After they send you this hit them with the IRS forms Laughing

Ask for as many official document regarding the lotto winnings make up some or some of the other members here might have forms for the lads to fill Laughing

Of interest, you were given the option of coming down to collect your prize in person for free. I wonder what would happen if you were stupid enough to show up in person?

And, ask for a e mail copy of the check. Thell them your bank took them on their word it was good, cashed it, and you're spending spree is underway! Chances are, you will never ever have to contact them again! Thanks!

Ask for a certificate of winning as you don't believe them. That will give you some playroom

I wonder - have you considered letting Lloyds TSB know that their name is being used in this scam. They might well like to investigate some of the telephone numbers given which are British. I write as a Lloyds account customer.
Their website is "L l o y d s T S B .com" (no spaces).

Id say u come up with a fake airline ticket for that date and see what he says from there.

Posted: Sun Dec 31, 2006 10:59 pm

hmmm.... This is probably a very stupid question, but what about trying to get the actuall address of the place where you are suppose to get the money in person, and submit it to the police?

Does the UK police handel's such things?

Should be easy for them, sending few officers to "collect the money".

Posted: Sun Dec 31, 2006 11:22 pm

Tell him that with such a ridiculously tight deadline, especially with airline schedules so limited over the New Year holiday period, you can't possibly go to collect the money and he will have to come up with an alternative plan.

Posted: Sun Dec 31, 2006 11:55 pm

^^^

The reasons for impossible deadlines is so that you won't go. I always make a point of telling my lads that I can make it on the day they suggest no matter how tight it is. It is fun to see them come back with an excuse to put you off. Very Happy
