Lottery invite

Post by Davo »

Thanks for the invite (as appeared in my mailbox) to take part in your lottery Gav, but I feel I have to decline.

It's SPAM. (I got one too)

I've had a couple of PM's from members on this issue. I can't do any site or user administration, can't delete users or spam PM's, only edit/delete normal posts, so any of this type of problem should be referred directly to Gavin.
Cheers

It is

SPAM

darn it.

Not from me, I will never contact you to join a lottery or similar.

The only exception to this was the very public call for the raffle for the Victorian bushfires, but that was very public, and I actually sold the lottery tickets.

Sorry all, please do ignore it, and let me know if you receive another one!

you guys are so gulliable. dont you know the odds of winning lotteries.

im sticking to a more guaranteed windfall in the form of a letter i got from a guy in Nigeria telling me i have already won a lottery! takes the odds out of the equation.

As one of the few girls posting on Auswine, I'm feeling pretty confident about winning Miss Auswine. What is the prize, Gavin?
