Guess what folks! I have just won $1000,000 in a lottery that I did not even have to enter! Is that a stroke of luck or what? I am now awaiting a reply as I have emailed back quoting my reference numbers etc.
From my observations this seems to originate from Belgium but what concerns me is the spelling of Brusells, it is spelt Bruxells.
As I have said I am still waiting for a reply from Mr. Patrick Janssens at [email protected]. If anyone can shed any light on this for me please reply.
Martha.

Hi Martha, Welcome
You will be asked to pay fees in order to collect your winnings. Have fun bait safe and read lots in here. Lottery scams are aplenty and not that easy to bait but are still worth a go.

Bruxelles is spelt Brussels depending on French or Flemish language.

Lottery scams are great if you aren't looking for a long term bait. They get right to the point and usually ask for money by the second or third response.

I like them because you can drive them crazy trying to get the money from W.U. I don't know about you but I'm not very good at sending money through Western Union. I always do something wrong that screws it up.

Have fun with it.

One million dollars only? Laughing

That is not even worth the reply. E-mail him saying that you won larger payouts than that at your local state lottery of 7 million. Ask you lad to match that...

Hi Martha - the Lotto Lads are the cockroaches of the scam world. They are an infestation and deserve a lot of irritation. Another baiter Artemis mentioned picking up ten at once and baiting them last night and I decided to have a go at that.

Don't try that yourself yet though or you'll go insane. i'm safe - I'm mad already Laughing

I think I have picked up your guys too, but that's no problem, they'll get twice the fun.

My character is a dear old lady who hardly knows how to e-mail, just wants the money in her Post Office account, ignores all requests for information, questions every demand, makes them explain everything twice, asks them to write in larger fonts, different colours and will basically drive them insane in every way she can.

By doing this I can pretty well send the same replies to each one, with slight variations, bits of fun, and the odd experiment.

Geesh - two of them have replied within an hour at 11.00pm - they must be on the night shift.

This is the longest info request so far - in red print Evil or Very Mad

- conjunctivitis - I can't read red print Laughing

As I've got ten I can push them further than maybe you would, but don't waste a lot of time on detail, just give them crap. If nothing else, I can make them allergic to little old ladies as victims.

Lottery Lads are a lot of fun, I had one the other day that was getting back to me within ten (count 'em, ten) minutes. Only took me half an hour to completely wind him up (by telling him I want the payment by paypal, then telling him how to do 'his job' and eventually telling him that I've found my own courier company Razz

)...but it's probably more fun if you drag it out. I was in the middle of writing an essay at the time, so it was a welcome distraction.

I think the answer to #7 just increased considerably. Very Happy
