Play Lotteries Online: Facebook Lottery Scam

Posted by admin on Oct-28-2011

Once again evidence showing why you can only rely on lottery tickets purchased in shops, or why it is good to play lotteries online, has shown itself. This time it involves a scam supposedly sourced from Facebook (it had to happen).

The American Better Business Bureau report bogus emails arriving in victim’s inboxes supposedly from Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook. The emails claim the recipient is the winner of $1 million in the Facebook 2011 Sweepstakes.

Curiously the email goes on to claim the prize will be released from the Facebook office in England and victims are asked to click on a link. As so often happens there is a paragraph requesting complete confidentiality: this of course ensures the recipient does not discuss the email with anybody else and so discover it is a fraud.

Of course the email is not from Facebook at all but from some shadowy scammer somewhere in the world.

As usual there are several clues to prove the email is bogus. Firstly in this case the office is “in England.” Why this would be case in a legitimate lottery is unclear but certainly anyone from or familiar with the country would be more likely to describe it as ‘Britain’ or the ‘United Kingdom’ than just ‘England.’ Equally, as has been said so often, no lottery organizer will send an unexpected message to say someone has won their lottery – you will know already that you have bought a ticket or that you already play lotteries online. The emails always contain bad spelling or grammar or other mistakes, such as the reference to ‘England’ already mentioned.


Such scams are simply out to part you either from your details (and therefore your identity) or your money (in the form of some ‘administrative fee’ or similar).

If you do get such an email you can report it to the authorities closest to you and/or delete it. Never get involved in any way.

See more about these fraudulent emails at the Better Business Bureau website.

Global Lotteries: Understanding Online Lottery

Posted by admin on Sep-30-2011

 

 

By spotrsstream3

The main attraction of online lottery for most people is the huge jackpot amount that they hope to win. But the excitement of choosing numbers, the thrill of waiting for the results, and the convenience of being able to play from the comforts of their home is what makes people keep buying online lottery tickets again and again.

When Internet began to revolutionize everything around us, it also changed the way lottery was played – and online lottery came into existence somewhere in the mid of 90s. The basic premise is the same as traditional lotteries, except that now everything from buying tickets to reviewing results can be done online.

Online Lottery Sites Reviewed

Most official lottery companies and many private brands of lotteries now offer online tickets and an opportunity to participate in the game, to all people worldwide. The internet made lottery bigger and better. Let’s take a look at the different types of online lottery sites that have come up in the recent years:

1. Official lottery sites – These are registered sites of specific lottery games that provide tickets for a particular lottery draw in different countries. Some of these lotteries are Powerball, Super Enalotto, and Megamillions.

2. National lottery sites – As the name suggests, these sites let you buy tickets to all the lotteries played in a certain country. For e.g. if you are in US, you can buy tickets to Powerball, Megamillions, Hot Lotto etc.

3. International lottery sites – You can buy tickets to all lottery games played worldwide and participate in as many lottery draws as you wish, even when you are a resident of a different country.

4. Private brand sites – These are online lottery sites that operate independently and are not government controlled.

How to Play Various Lotteries Online

When playing online lottery, you need to be extremely careful so you can increase your chances of winning and can better enjoy the game. Here are some aspects you should consider:

  • Not all lotteries are same. Each state has its own rules and regulations for the lottery game, and you should be well-aware of these rules before buying the tickets for any particular lottery draw.
  • Do not miss out on the official draw. Once you have participated in a lottery, mark the date of the official draw in your calendar and carefully tally the numbers you picked, with the numbers drawn.
  • To enter into any online lottery, you need to be at least 18 years of age. Do not waste money in buying lottery tickets if you are younger than 18, since even if you win you will have to forfeit the entire amount.

Choosing the Right Online Lottery Agent

  • Look for authorized and reliable lottery agents when buying your tickets online.
  • Ensure that the online lottery site is Secure and all transactions are encrypted.
  • Get a proper receipt of your payment, since with an online lottery site you do not get a physical ticket issued. Your receipt is the only proof of your possessing a particular ticket.
  • Check if the lottery site allows you to review past results, provides useful tips for winning and does not charge any extra fee for the lottery tickets.

Global Lotteries: Buy A Lottery?

Posted by admin on Jun-28-2011

The debt crisis in Greece has created a situation almost unique in the world of global lotteries.

Despite a bailout of €110 billion so far, Greece still needs to find another €100 billion to pay it’s bills. This means the country is considering selling or privatizing many of its assets.

This includes the state lottery.

But Greece is not alone. Despite being in a better position than the other countries in trouble (including Portugal and Ireland), Spain is considering selling at least part of its state lottery.

So when you play either the Greek or Spanish lottery, make sure you specify you want to purchase a lottery ticket or you might end up owning one of these two global lotteries.

Winning Lottery Number: Financial Advice For Lottery Winners

Posted by admin on Jun-8-2011

Having the winning lottery number is like a similar experience to receiving a large inheritance – and it brings the same challenges.

Receiving a large amount of money is a dream to most people but it still needs to be treated in a sensible, calculated way. Most lottery organizations provide advice for those who have the winning lottery number, gained from years of experience with previous winners.

You want to ensure you are comfortable for the rest of your life: some winners in the past have blown all their winnings in a short time and find themselves back where they started.

Handling money sensibly is a skill like so many but advice is freely available. Lottery organizations will put you in touch with a financial advisor, for example, and it is essential you take their advice.

Dava Levit, a professional financial advisor, has been giving advice to those who either have the winning lottery number or inherit money in an article for the website Boston.com.

Read what she says on the Boston.com website.
