Dopo un periodo di relativa calma sembrano tornare di moda le false vincite al lotto. Soltanto oggi ho vinto circa un fantastiliardo di euro a una serie di lotterie che non ho mai sentito nominare, figuriamoci come posso aver comprato il biglietto!
Simpatico anche il fatto che, avendo più caselle email, ho vinto il premio più volte per la stessa lotteria. Ecco il testo di una falsa vincita in Spagna:

In caso di comunicazioni come questa vale sempre la solita regola: usate la testa! Come è possibile che abbiate vinto al lotto senza nemmeno comprare il biglietto? Come hanno fatto conoscere il vostro indirizzo email? Sarebbe bello ritrovarsi un milione di euro senza fatica ma purtroppo non è così.
Il meccanismo della truffa è semplice: contattando questi signori per maggiori spiegazioni vi verrà richiesto di anticipare dei soldi per delle spese prima di incassare il malloppo …. incasso che ovviamente non arriverà mai.
