Lottery Scams: AccuLotto.com International

Sample Lottery Scam Email: AccuLotto.com International
"CONTACT MR LOUIS GREY TO BEGING YOUR CLAIMS"

The AccuLotto.com International email is a scam built upon another scam.  First, the website www.AccuLotto.com does not conduct any lotteries; which immediately proves that the email is a scam.  Secondly, AccuLotto.com itself is a scam, purporting to sell "an exclusive 3-point triangulation system to generate YOUR lucky lottery numbers." They claim to "track actual winning lottery numbers for local, state, and international lotteries" , then "We utilize the science of numerology and extract numbers specifically linked to your individual being." and finally, "We align the information gathered in steps one and two along with the current status of the astrological alignment of the sun, moon, and stars. We believe Astrology plays an integral roll in the ability of some people to consistently win at the lottery."

Getting back to the scam email, which most certainly originates with scammers who are not part of Acculotto.com , but probably in Nigeria. We've included the original scam email, followed by two follow-up emails that the scammer sent. They're obviously looking to steal your identity and open credit cards in your name.

In addition to the usual clues, notice the terrible writing, misspellings, and worse. The sentences don't even make sense.  Hardly what a professional (i.e., real) lottery would do. Note the other clues to an obvious fraud that we have highlighted in the letter; keep confidential, selected by a random computer lottery of email addresses, use of free hotmail/yahoo email accounts, etc.

Common signs that it is a scam:

  • The recipient "won" without buying a ticket (so where does the money come from?)

  • "For security reasons" you're not allowed to talk to anyone about it (especially the police or consumerfraudreporting.org!) - which ought to be odd since lotteries thrive on publicity!
