Oooo..I won two lotteries in the same day!

Post by MarkCDodd »

Gosh I must be lucky as in the e-mail to day I was informed I had won the "The Microsoft Mega Jackpot Lottery, United Kingdom" to the tune of £1,550,952.

Then an hour later I got another e-mail saying I had won "The British National Lottery" to the tune of £1,000,000.

To make it even better, my daughter won both lotteries to exactly the same amounts.

How lucky is that!

Now where is that listing of farms in Shropshire for sale..... :lol:

That's nothing, we won the same telephone lottery four times the other day. Such a nice American sounding lady too. They must be very strict where she works though, I kept asking her questions and she steadfastly stuck to her script. I did get a date out of her though. :wink:

Get those mails on a regular basis, they usually end up in the SPAM file!

Logic merely enables one to be wrong with authority.

They have been very clever to bypass my Spam filter by using legitimate names and e-mail addresses.

Othwerise they would have been automatically incinerated by my firewall.
