Stupid Punts!

Lady luck has smiled upon me again, yes I have won yet another lottery.

This time a paltry $500K, I normally win over $1M, this sum makes it hardly worth my while getting out of bed to file the claim.

For reasons best known to the perpetrators of this scam, they all claim to operate from Holland; anyone know why?

Anyway, don't fall for this one folks, it is a con.
