| +4 violet and allen large give away lottery winnings They gave us the CTVnews website to varify who they were and that they were giving away their millions. They told us they were giving us 2m. I replied by asking what this was about and who were they. I will not reply to any other correspondance from them. I was very suspicious so started looking around for info on this if it was a scam. This was the url they asked us to check on to see if it was legit. http://.ctvnews.ca/n-s-couple-gives-away-11m-in-lottery-winnings-1.570916 |

I noticed "lerge" not large in the email address. Also that they gave their money to family and charities, not individuals. It is the most convincing scam I have received.
