Just when I was down and out. Just when I thought my luck had run out...I win the UK National Lottery. How lucky am I? Wow, now I can get the wheelchair ramp I have always longed for and a brand new tricked-out wheelchair.
How stupid do these email nerds really think we are?
I found this in my email today. I'm sorry, but if anyone is actually foolish enough to fall for one of these scams they probably deserve whatever happens to them as a result! The one I received last week actually asked me to scan my driver's license and send it to them to claim my prize!
