I got a letter two weeks ago from Spain with the EL GORDO LOGO stating I h
ave won a certain amount after my name was selected from 25,000 names picked through a computer system from five countries in the world. A form was attached to this letter which I was to fill and send to a specified security firm in Spain who will process and remit this amount to my acount. I had already spent some money in this process before I came across what is called a lottery scam on the internet. I now know that I have been conned. What do I now do as they are still requesting for more money not knowing I have already known they are fraudsters. |

Hello efosa, I am sorry to hear that you have sent some money, sadly it is gone! please stop any contact with them, if you have sent your bank details please close that account! As a crime (fraud) has been committed you may want to report it to your local police but do not expect too much to happen!
Ciao, spiacente dire i vostri soldi è andato! se posso contribuire prego a metterselo in contatto con che usando il collegamento sotto grazie

Thanks for your reply to my letter. I have already closed my account but will like to know if they can use the photocopy of my National Identity Card sent to them in the process against me. Thanks as I await your urgent reply.

Dear Efosa
Unfortunatelly they may use the copy of your ID to create a fake person and to continue fraud action with your name. I should suggest to contact with local authorities in your country and change ID also to sue unknown persons for the money they took from you. |
