In May 2005, by e-mail received a message that my e-mail address, among hundreds of others were drawn in the lottery, fell lucky numbers (numbers indicated) to win the award (given), for further information contact the coordinator (e-mail address set). Y Coordinator has received confirmation of congratulations and some clarifications. The winning amount under the terms of the game is not divisible and must be sent to the winner of the whole. The amount is kept at a general impersonal account for all the winners. After filling out the questionnaire (on company letterhead with the address of the International Lottery Company and phones in Amsterdam, Netherlands) with my name, name, bank account number, which I would like to receive money required to pay $ 650 Eur through Western Union for processing (separation) of the sum of my winnings on my name to this general impersonal sum of all the winners.

Because entitled to the funds we can not send a whole, we sent in installments through Western Union. It took a couple of months. Further, since I am not a resident of the Netherlands, said that we should not pay the resident tax (Non-Resident Tax). Paid in installments over several months. After that requiring payment of the cost of translation (Cost of transfer) the winning amount. All this rigmarole is still ongoing, since Money such was not what they required for all these charges.
