I just got a letter from the Spanish lottery telling me I just won $618K. But I need to claim it by February 29th.

They sent me a form to fill out with my information and bank account numbers so they can wire me the money. But I am afraid that the international postal service may lose my return letter. Should I just take it over to their offices in Spain instead since it is $618K I won. I don't know if I should risk mailing it.

This is unreal. It's got to be legitimate because this letter was mailed to me at home. Its definitely not one of those Nigerian email scams.

He's most likely joking.

Ok, so fly out there and pick up your winnings.

Better yet, email me your account info and I will fly there for you and get everything done in person for you. Just give me your account number, your PIN and a copy(high res scanned, please) of your drivers license. You can trust me, I have heatware.

Does anyone in ATOT live out in Spain?

Maybe I can fedex this signed letter out to you and you can hand deliver it for me. I'll give you part of the winnings if you do.

Edit: Gogeeta13, I don't trust anyone who says they have Heatware but doesn't link their sig.

Sorry. Still don't trust you. You don't have enough posts. How do I know won't just take off with my winnings? You could be a forum troll for all I know.
