The lotter.com – Free lotteries: legit or a scam?
05/04/07
One night at the dawn of creation, a guy named Adam fell into a deep sleep. The next morning he awoke missing one rib, but suddenly he had a spouse. Ancient text does not chronicle whether or not Adam lamented the missing bone, or felt ill-used about having his mate made from a piece of his ribcage. Considering the fact he and his new wife went on to populate the planet, one would suspect that he enjoyed the charms of a female in ways a piece of ribcage could never compete with. There is no record of what piece of Adam’s anatomy was removed to create the mother-in-law, but one would suspect that it was a bit farther south of rib area.
The creation of eve is a perfect example of the fact that you have to give something up in order to get something of value in return. Were the expenditure of his rib part of an organized lottery, Adam would have been gambling a body part in order to win the pre-histories version of Victoria Silvstedt. A lot of people get information in their emails about lotteries that they not only allow them to keep their ribs, but make the claim that no money is needed as well. Despite the fact that these particular lotteries are not asking for anything, the end result often feels like a swift kick to the nether regions.
When somebody gets an email about a free lottery, more often than not it implies the person has already qualified for this lottery and won the Grand Prize. This should immediately send up a warning flag. There are very few people who are actively looking for strangers to give away money to. Accepting an unsolicited offer of money is usually a good way to wind up on one of the those police investigation shows that are so popular on the Discovery Channel.
Those who are actually curious about the money they won from a lottery they never entered or heard of will genreally be told that their winnings can only be wired to a bank account. So to claim the prize, a person will need to give the "lottery officials" their bank account number and bank routing number. At this point the folks running the "lottery" have a good laugh, empty your account, and buy themselves nice things.
In most cases when somebody offers a free lottery, its time to grip your wallet a little tighter. The one case where a free lottery is completely legitimate is the lotter.com, and their "theFree" offering.
The lotter offers as a benefit to their members, the chance to win $100,000 without having to commit any funds to the effort. The lotter, is safe, secure, and has been succefully running this contest for a number of years. They also do not ambush strangers and promise them money. TheFree is something the members of the site must sign up for. So if you want a legitimately free lottery, feel free to participate in "theFree", if filling out police reports is the sort of thing you enjoy, answer one of those unsolicitaed emails that claim you have won millions.
