I am a Senior Fraud Victim Advocate with Fraudaid.org , first of all what you have experienced is what we call a Fake Lottery Scam. It is designed for one purpose only and that is to get innocent and unsuspecting people involved in the fantasy of winning a ton of money. They use this scam to do one of two things:
Launder money by sending you a check with your winnings letter and instructing you to depsosit the check and send off a portion of it to pay so called fees and taxes to free up your winnings OR for the purpose of getting you to pay advanced fees to gain access to your winnings. Here are the cold hard facts:
1. If you did not purchase a lottery ticket , you could not have won that lottery. Why? Lotteries only exist on the money gained through the sale of tickets. The money they get from people purchasing tickets IS the money or at least a portion of that money that is dished out in winnings.
2. IF you have gotten a surprise winning notification and a check from a lottery company you had better verify that the lottery is real and that the check was indeed issued to you by the " Account Holder". Most likely that check is Counterfeit and you can wind up in a heap of trouble either with your bank or legally if you cash it.
NEVER EVER send money to anyone you do not know via services like Western Union, Money Gram etc based on a sales pitch or promise. Those services are widely used to scam people out of hard earned money. Why? Simply put... once that money is sent and picked up at the other end there is NO way to retrieve it or to recover your losses.

I received many e mails frm free lotto saying that i have won a million but their link is not woking and they are not replying my e mails.
hello
see the complais against u ,r they peoples talking true?
I am also a member of freelotto although I never won anything. A monthly fee of about R100 (South African Money) is going off my credit card. All of a sudden freelotto stopped sending me the lotto results. Is this a real thing or am I throwing my money in the water? Howcome do I have to pay a R100 per month if it is a free lotto? I can use that money to play the lotto in my own country and I am sure by this time I would have won something.
Is this a scam
Am on the list of unclaimed checks for $1000000. Your form insists that i give my credit card no. for monthly subscription. If the lottery is free why charge monthly? If i have won why not allow me get the check without my credit card number.
i would like to know more about free lotto Is it fake or true
I dont agree with this scam i have just emailed them teling them if i do not recieve my money back and delete my account details then i am going to the police because when they send a email i am sure the police can get their ip address and track them down they are ###.
I AM ALSO RECIEVING THE SAME THINGS ON MY EMAIL. HOW CAN I BLOCK THIS SENDER TO STOP SENDING ME THIS NONSENSE MAILS!
I really don't if I won. I recieve 23 messages from freelotto by just June or July but when I checked
this Jan. 6, I've got 276 messages from freelotto.
PLEASE CONFIRM! IT MAYBE A SCAM BUT A STUPID SCAMMER ONLY WOULD SEND ME A TON OF MESSAGES SAYING THAT I WON! WHAT SHOULD I DO? HELP PLEASE...
The statements I have read here seems to be true though I have not confirmed. I am waiting to see by the end of this week.
i was sent a email from freelotto.com claiming that i won one million ten thousand and three hundred dollars. i live in barbados west indies. i felt it was fraudulent after they kept asking for credit card details. its always everyones dream to be rich there are playing on your dreams. be cautious when things are to good to be true.
I received the same e-mail from freelotto and reply by giving my credit card number. After a while a page appared saying that "sorry we can not proceed your payment." I am now worrying that if they will take my money for every month. Is there a way stopping that? I will be pleased if someone replies that. Thanks anyway.
I dont think this is a good game, i think they cheats.
Sometimes ago i worn $1000000 and all of a sudden my name was erazed.
Many times I received message from Freelotto, Division of Unclaimed Fund, informed me that I won 1 million, 10 thousands and 300 hundreds US dollars and ask me to claimed it with my credit card, but in fact, I do nothing, because I really don’t believe it, also it shows the photographs of it winner members, such as Eric Prevost a recent 10 million winner from France. This could sound pretty good and true but I don’t know absolutely.
Until now Division of Unclaimed Fund is still delivering me with a message, but I strongly could not give to them my credit card information and will never pay any amount because I believe that it is a fake lotto.
This is just a big ###... believe me...
I wanna see if someone can help me unsubscribe from this freelotto thing. My husband received the email saying hed won and he actually paid them the money! he is so naive! now they charge a monthly fee of 9.99 and i dunno how to unsubscribe, cause they ask u for your password, i dont even know it! This guys are a big scam, and i noticed since the beginning, but i was not heard! This scams really make me mad!
It sounds like a scam. why are they so keen to give away $1,000,000, $10,000 and $300. Well i must be the luckiest person in the world. They will die waiting for my $14.99!
They said its a freelotto what i know free is free, why they are asking for money.
the free lotto sending me the approval of check worth $1million dollars but the damm problem is they are asking my credit card # to validate my prize and to be process can you help this people are just scamming me
I recieved an e-mail that i won the money, but am trying to trace it but i am unable.please send the prize or else i sighn out
I have been playing Freelotto off and on for several years, and will have to say they are OK in my books and will continue to play. I gave them my credit card info for "fast" one time which playing for me every day seven days a week. But now I pick my own numbers when I can. Just seems like they have been on the web to long to be a scam! I will keep playing...
I am a USD millionaire on the owner only because I have got a copy of my check but when I claim for it they always say that my CVV is incorrect so unable to claim. Have win also 10 ,000 and 300 usd but as far as I know by verifying the result everyday I never got six good numbers. Pls advise. Since fifteen days I am playing and its only after 3 days I won all that.
Received an e-mail from again requesting my Immediate Attention Requested - Reply by 2007/11/25. It state's it is from the Division of Unclaimed Funds. It is in a form of a check with the address of Freelotto on it on the upper left side of the check. On the upper right hand side of the check it gives a check number of M98211. It state's pay the amount of 1 Million Dollars and has my name and address on it and is signed by Patrick J. Chambers. This not the only Prize that company has said I have won.please help me
I think I have won, but can not claim or enter my account information, because your server wont let me go into the site.
Is there any other way, maybe a telephone number, and another thing I can not remember my login and password.
What is really surprising is the quantity of fools. Can't you read the emails? They never say you have won anything, just eligible to win. If you can't read, you don't deserve that much money!
Today I was checking my email and while having nothing to do, I decided to check the spam I have received in the last days. The first message call my attention because announced I was a winner of $256 million. A little bit excited, but no without some reserve, I googled freelotto, and quickly found that I am not a new millionaire. I then went back to my spam box and searched for all messaged with the word freelotto on it, and found out that my total winnings were of $1,277 million (I which it were true). I just think something should be done with this, and so many other spam messages that can actually serve to steal people's money, but I also think everybody should be aware of this situation and be very careful when receive these kind of e-mails. I just thank gmail for putting the message directly into my spam box (along with 821 more, in the last month) and thank google for being so effective and letting me know, with no effort at all, that gmail knows what it is doing and that I wasn't a new millionaire. I will never open my spam box again, ever.
Yeah, it is a scam but I never paid nothing but as they say a GAME, every ones being fooled some emails say they did collect their money, nobody did, thats them using your identity & those photos of the winners they've taking them of the youtube sites. They`d be on the wanted list I will do a full investigation on them FRAUDERS, ROBBERS, you name it.
Two weeks I got a message,while browsing my internet, from Free Lotto that I had won 1million$ and other three prizes of much lesser amount. Following their instructions I started the process of 'claiming' these fabulous prizes. I was excited at first but started to doubt their credibility when they asked me to submit my credit card #. I skipped that part of the claiming procedure and closed the whole episode. These rascals however did not stop there. They send me another message stating that I have, this time, won 10 million$ and other two prizes of smaller amounts. I wrote to them to connect me to one Mr. Basha of Delhi who,according to them, 'have won 10 million $ and he has already received the prize'!. I wrote this letter to their CEO (one Mr. Kevin J. Anonin probably). There was no reply to my letter. I am now more than convinced that Free Lotto is a Big... Big Scam.
People should be aware of them and the US Gov.!
I registered to the freelotto and within three minutes they sent me an email stating that I am a winner of $1m and I must verify my pin by giving them my credit card number, I did not because this is such a joke.
There is nothing for free in this world of today, they are playing a bad and unlawful game, the FBI's must act against this peoples it is such a big SCAM!
I have got a lot of e-mail through free lotto company that you won million pound as well as one e-mail from Irish national lottery company for the won amount and when I contact him through e-mail they said to me that you have to contact a courier company which would be related with that company. I am Indian and couldn't know anything about this company. They say me at first you have to pay my currency transferred charge. They also gave details of their charge and contact person through e-mail. They are related with a juridically dept. It seem that they are cheater, So, I requested to you Please do the needful that can anybody trust on the real organization.
Please send what you can do for the same.
I have many message about my prize in Freelotto classic game (win $1,000,000 Jackpot).
When I resister Form 7082a, the next page is Form 7082b, I type my VisaCard and CVV number. After that, I never access this Form 7082b again!
I only received the notice "Your subscription can not be processed, the CVV number does not match the billing information you provided".
What I can do now to claim my prize from Freelotto? Please help me.
I also received numerous letters from the Freelotto but got suspicious - while registering - that they wanted my credit card information. A French gentleman in Central America expressed his concern about this scam since he and his son were playing FreeLotto on the internet and offers to hire an international lawyer to sue the scammers. In the central American countries we have a high risk of being kidnapped if we have money and our names are being listed among the winners of 1 million US$ on the internet. So we become easy targets for the criminals in our country. I am a Belgian citizen residing in Central America and want to join the group who is willing to sue those bas**rds.

Yes , all are scams .
THANKS.
I am so sorry that all of you have had horrible experiences with FreeLotto. The truth is you have to be extremely careful when giving out any personal info via internet, in fact I say don't do it. I had a resume posted online at Monster.com and do you know they are even scamming there as well. I was offered a job to cash checks and send the money via Western Union (LOL). I sent a reply via email to the seemingly legit company telling them that if this is 100% legal then I am all for it. Well you know I have never received a reply. Also I called the number that they had listed and started to question the so-called representative and I guess I must have surprised him with some of the questions I was asking because he hung up on me..he got stuck by one of the questions and he just straight gave me the dial tone. This is what I say to all of you:
1. Create a dummy account, email and all this includes establishing a dummy name, email, phone numbers the works. This way you can somewhat monitor what is real or not
2. Stay clear from entering any credit card info call the stores or companies direct. Go that extra mile and research make sure you check online for any complaints against the companies because if they are scammers believe me someone else have already been victimized by the treachery. The truth is ... the internet is a very fun place but also a breeding ground for all sorts of ills and I want all of you to be safe and don't lose your life earnings. And about freelotto let them roll with the name free play free don't buy anything or register credit cards especially.
Play Free and Play safe
You all be careful now ya hear!
Blessings
Temptous
I have a big problem with this mail that is been sent to me, stating that I have won but the Freelotto guys are saying that I have not won but while I was on the site a message pop-up and yet again I was told that I have won, if I have won how can I get hold of the winnings if I do not have a credit card, and the other thing that I do not trust the whole thing that I need a credit card for validation reasons. If I look back at the scam mail that others got and how they could not get their winnings makes me a bit worried.
Yes, I agree with you all. Even i've proff. I've receive their email that i'm the winner of 10,000,000.00 USD for the fourth series but it was pending since i didn't pay any thing to them. I mean while in their web with the winner picture they said he had won the 10,000,000.00 USD. What a scam!
