Virtual syndicate rip-off?
Got this email from virtual world direct the other day. "playing in an e-line lottery...you will receive a share of all the the winnings from 36 single-line entries..will MATCH both lucky stars..etc" they say. I reckon it sounds like a big fat scam. too good to be true, only have to pick one number supposedly, and guaranteed win. I've deleted it now but was wondering if anyone else had thoughts on it, was duped, or even found success.

Yeah, it's just a scam. Virtually anything you see that includes the words 'global', 'world', 'direct' etc. is a scam. You were smart to delete it. There are no 'e-line lotteries' ROFL 'Pick one number and guaranteed win' ROFLMAO
