HAVE YOU EVER WON A LOTTERY BEFORE: None, unless you count those fake, scamming ones
HOW DO YOU FEEL TO BE A WINNER: I don't know, I'm not sure if this lottery is real either. Right now I don't think we even have proper Health or Dental insurance, my mom can't get her car back, and she's on disability, so if this really is a real lottery and I've won, my whole family's life would definitely change for the better. Words wouldn't even begin to explain how happy it'd make everyone, especially my mom and grandmom, to win this money and finally live much better lives. My three younger brothers and I could finally pay for guitar/drum lessons, I could get my own car, my brother could get his own place, my mom would finally get her van back and also pay off the tens of thousands of dollars of debt she owes, all kinds of miracles would happen. Well, that's if we'd win this jackpot, which I'm almost 100% sure we didn't, seeing how every single one of these stupid online lotteries are always fake. I just wanted to let you guys know how cruel and evil you are for even making these things. I bet there are thousands of others out there who got the same email with like the same numbers, and they're all so excited to get off their welfare checks and move out of the ghettos or wherever they live, and soon they'll find out, just like I did long ago, that all these stupid online lotteries are fake, and then their hopes will be crushed and they'll be one step closer to giving up on life. I hate you kind of people, making us fill up with such high hopes and expectations, and then watch it all crumble to the floor as we realize we didn't actually win anything."
Long story short: After 4-5 months of exchanging emails back and forth, he finally agrees to send me the prize if I send him a moneygram to pay for the wire transfer fees. I claim he's scamming me, so he agrees to send me $4900 to pay for it, and a week or 2 later I get that check. I almost cry with happiness over the fact that I believed I actually won, and I gave some to my mom to make payments, take my best friends out to a movie, and promise another that I'd buy him a new PC. This was all with my own money of course, and I still had enough for the wire transfer fee. Then two days later, my bank account is negative $600. Turns out the check was fake, and the negative represents how much I spent on my friends and family the day that I thought I was going to be a multi millionaire. I had quit my job by then and had to use the last of my paychecks to pay it off.
