ACCEPT OUR CONGRATULATIONS (Lottery Scam from "MRS. JOSEPHINE TERRY")

“Mrs. Josephine Terry” is clueless about how lotteries really work, but I know you do. “Josie” has no idea that you have to buy a ticket, enter a lottery before you can win anything. She seems to not realize that there is no such thing as random electronic e-mail draws. And the professionalism of this scam leaves much to be desired. If you receive this, don’t become her victim—she wants to charge you money for money that doesn’t exist for you. Clue her in by deleting this scam and maybe she’ll figure it out.
