Euromillions lottery scam - how it works

You will get an email a lottery win ($100,000 - $5,000,000) but you have to pay release fee ($1,000 - $5,000). Of course you will never see any winnings. Yyou will also never see your paid fee again.

Euromillions scam techniques 

Euromillions use spam emails to get you on hook. Irony is Euromillions proclaiming on their site they do not use such techniques. They also use several banners.

Lottery scam prevention 

- Simply be cautious.

- Never pay any lottery cash advance. If you are a real lottery winner you have to get money and pay taxes but you never have to pay any money to claim your winnings.

- Never click any links in emails promising you cash for nothing.

- Investigate web for references

- Never provide anybody with your bank account details if you are not sure who the person asking your details is.
