The "Flash Fortune Lottery" scam is another example of a fake lottery. It is painfully obvious. If you are tempted to respond to the email below, then unfortunately, we have to be the ones to tell you: you are truly gullible.
Don't be fooled: There is no such thing as a "computer ballot system" and NO legitimate lottery that will notify you by email; especially when you didn't buy a ticket from them!
If you still think this might be legit, see the highlighted passages in the email below, that draw attention to the other, additional signs of a scam.
