Are they real? they kept on sending me about it, i tried to click on the link that they send me on my email about validating it, and when i click it, i was directed to a form 7082a. I havent signed on it, but I didn't sign up on that since it requires a card number and the cvv...
So anyone having receiving mails like this? Are they real? What are your thoughts to these?
Happy mylotting!

I actually play at freelotto.com every day. If you're getting e-mail from the same place, it's legit. I have no clue what the form 7082a is for though, I don't see it on their website anywhere.
If you're talking about an e-mail you received that told you you won a lottery though and they want personal information from you, then it's probably a scam. Is this from freelotto.com or is it just something about a free lottery?

Can you do a copy and paste? That would make it show up here for us. Try that and see if it works...

definitely yes you can blocked them by reporting them as spam, but sad to say they are many to stop them. Just ignore it my fried. Remember never to reply on their mail.. Happy Holliday

Yes, lots of times and are usually scams. They would say that you have won through a random electronic raffle of something that you have no idea about that you even joined. Then they'd ask for your personal information. One should never give or even reply to those information because your online account might just get robbed or something. If they say that its free but still ask for your account number just so they can "verify" something, you shouldnt go through. Well, goodluck with that and happy myLotting too.^_^

I have never personally recieved emails from them but I wouldn't trust them!! It sounds like a scam. If you truly won a prize they wouldn't ask for your credit card or debit card number. Be very careful and wary of these!!

If it truly is free why would they ask for your credit card number?
I don't remember ever recieving an email from them but if I did I would just delete it anyway.

They are the ones that want you to join their site and play their lotto games. When they were first on the internet, I did try a few times, but quit as I was not into it except for fun and I had other things on my mind. That was over two years ago. I do not know what it is now, but I expect the tax laws have changed and now you have to declare your address, etc. because if you win, you will have to pay tax on it. It is the same when you become an affiliate. I am an affiliate of a store and a company and I had fill out a form declaring that I am not an American citizen.

so do you think it's legit? well it's kinda confusing and im curious bout it, since it requires a 7082a form which says, PRESENTATION OF DECLARATION OF DECISION...and after that form, another one should be fill up was the one asking for credit card number and cvv number...haven't tried to fill up the form since Im not so sure if they are legit, or it was totally a scam...
Anyway, thanks sharing your idea!
Happy weekend! God bless!

Hello sharie. Yes, I got a mail from freelotto after I become a referral of it by one of my mylot friends, but I don't like it at all because I also need to put some money before I can make some more money. I don't think that it is worth it because I am not sure how good a site it is since it is somewhat like a gambling site. Good luck to you, friend.

indeed, i avoid joining any sites that requires to pay first or anything that would ask for your credit card number or bank account...because it was a trick maybe...but i wasn't so sure also of the site about freelotto.com...so i didn't try...
thanks for sharing, my friend!
Happy weekend! God bless!

Dun ever fall for that and even though it tempting, but never sign up for it.. BEcause once u do, u will lose more than what u htink u are gonna get from the so called freelotto winnings.. They are scam, and alot of ple had fallen for it, because they think they are lucky and they think they are smart..
But no, think again, if it's real, they could send it to u by post and though it's slow, it should not matter to them much, since u are the one receiving it.. lol =D Thus, any site that u are not familiar with, that requires your credit card number or personal details, it's better to skip them ^_^

Same thing happened to me and I stopped short of providing my credit card details, fearing some fraud.

I had several of thesour credit card details emails. I think it's a scam why are they asking for your credit card number if it's suppose to be free.

I'm a little bit late in responding you Sharie about this email lotto. I have experienced this and right now I don't respond this anymore, because I believe it's a scam. Do not give any security number of your credit card. You will be the loser.
