Lottery scams are fraudulent schemes where scammers contact potential victims to inform them that they have won a lottery or prize. These scams often require the victim to pay upfront fees or provide personal information to claim their supposed winnings.
Common red flags of lottery scams include unexpected winning notifications for contests you never entered, requests for payment to release winnings, and pressure to act quickly. Scammers may use official-looking documents and fake websites to appear legitimate.
To protect yourself from lottery scams, never pay money to claim a prize, verify the legitimacy of the organization through independent sources, and never share personal or financial information with unsolicited contacts. |
