International Lottery Scams

The international lottery scams are becoming a big concern worldwide as more victims are getting trapped by the scams that are making the rounds online. It is important not to trust any strange email that asks you to send money to claim a large jackpot. These are not real international lottery organizations, but fakes that only want your money.

You need to buy genuine tickets from an international lottery in order to participate and then win something. The odds of winning the jackpot is more against you than for you which is why winning a lottery jackpot without even purchasing a ticket is an impossibility.

The international lottery does not target the potential participants through email, but through media forms all over the world. It is only the international lottery scam that targets their victims through email in various countries.

So there are claims from U.S Mega Millions stating that someone from Bolivia has won $ 1 million and all he or she needs to do is send some amount of money to a particular address or bank account number and the jackpot will be delivered. There are many international lottery scams that use the European Gaming Commission to look authentic and genuine. These are not really registered or licensed by official gaming regulators.

The international lottery scams send constant notifications with numbers of agencies and addresses. These look eerily genuine and people do fall for them as a result. The money offered is a lot and hence, people do send these ‘fees’ that are asked for. The international lottery scams also ask for names and phone numbers which also indicate that they may be local scams by thieves and burglars.

It is important to understand that you cannot win lottery jackpots without participating from far off countries. The internet lottery scams are part of a big hoax to fool you into losing your money.
