Stupid Punts!

Here we go folks, another fake lottery win has dropped into my mail box.

I get around 4 of these a week, sometimes several from the same company.

How lucky I am!

The bottom line is, that it is a fake; were I to respond, and to try to claim the non existent money, then they would try to charge me a "processing fee".

I would of course never see my "winnings", as they don't exist!
