SuperenaLotto is the fastest growing lottery company/organization
in Italy. Our organization is the Stichting de Nationale
Sporttotalisator (National Organization of Sport Tote) properly known
as Superenalotto. We feature/promote sports and various chance games in
Italy, now we are aiming to broaden our operations/network worldwide.
This promotional program was conducted for the sole purpose of
advertising, we wish in the near future to have agents and stores all
over the world where you can buy a lotto ticket or participate in any
of our other games of chance.

In this program all email addresses used were voluntarily supplied
given to us by their owners, meaning that you have visited one or more
of our sponsored website and gave up your address to receive mails from
their sponsors. Winners were chosen through a computer ballot system.
Your email address came out as one of the lucky winners it is for this
reason you were contacted.
You have indeed won this cash prize. To file in your claim to collect
the prize, you must agree to the claim rules of SuperenaLotto and
complete the claim process to get the prize.

I hope to have informed you sufficiently. Thank you.

Best Regards
Ernesto Bonino.

Dear Mr. Ernesto Bonino,

I recently sent payment of $550.00 euros to Maria Campo, and have not
heard form your office. My assumption of this is one of the many
scams present on the Internet. Because I am one to believe that good
things happen to good people and all wrong will find it's way back. I
am not the least bit surprised that as indicated in your Award letter I
would hear from you office within five days, I have not heard from you
or the supposed SupernaLotto Organization. Well, all faith is not lost
in the system for me I have started an investigation that will reveal
the truth in the end.

I'm usually not apt to gimmicks and tricks that appear in my email,
and I may just be the person elected to help bring circumstances
similar to my experience with you and your team to an end.
