email-alert?
 
Has anyone else got an email from Gloria Mackenzie? The lady in FL that won the big powerball. She wants to share her winnings with a bunch of people.

I haven't gotten one from her but a lady in France wants to send me her money before she dies.

Jan , I got a few like that too. They want to send it to people that help Charities. It is so tempting , I could really use the money to help out my kids. But I wish they would offer to hand deliver the cash instead of dealing through the banks. What to do , what to do??

Love these scam emails. What is amazing is people will actually believe them.

I sincerely doubt that the winner would be contacting people personally. Would probably be thru an attorney or a foundation.

Oh I love people wanting to share. send her my way!!! or maybe not!

Just someone saying the Powerball Lady wants to share. If it was on the up and up she could always find institutions that could use the money. She may not know this is going around.
Scam, scam, scam. Don't fall for it.

Scam.....please stay away from it. If she wanted to share she would find a worthy cause or causes. Please don't get fooled.

purple, you do realize that this is a scam, no one is giving you the money, they want your acct number to clean out your acct.
