Previous DJML poster Ev Farey wrote to me about a letter he had received
from EL GORDO SWEEPSTAKE LOTTERY COMPANY S.L.

If anyone gets such a letter, throw it away.  You have not won anything,
and they will eventually ask you for money.  I checked it all out with
the U.S. Embassy here for Ev.  They confirmed it has been going on for
years, and usually people actually end up sending money to these jokers.
It's amazing how greedy some are!

Anyway, just a warning to you and yours........
