    This guy calls me today from a toll free number claiming he was from the US customs.
    He asked if "I was aware that I had won the Canadian Lottery".
    LOL I said "I don\'t remember entering any lottery."
    He said "well, we have your winnings here it\'s a total sum of 85 thousand."
    I was like alright! ( already thinking BULLSHIT)
    "All you need to do is pay 1% of the winnings for the tax and processing fees." (bingo!)
    He said his name was Russell Judd and gave me a number, added that I needed to wire transfer 850 bucks via Western Union to a guy named Mathiew Boffa in Montreal Canada.
    He clarified that this was not the traditional spelling of "Matthew" I thought that was a nice touch Rolleyes
    The best part? He asked me at least 4 times when I thought I would be able to take care of the transaction. (not very good at your craft are you?)
    I said " well, I\'ll need to figure out where my local branch is..."
    I also added "why don\'t you just deduct it from my winnings?"
    "This doesn\'t work like that, I have paperwork to fill out here..."
    (uhh...ooooook) <_<

    I\'m almost tempted to go down there and send em 50 cents, and say "there I sent it, here\'s the transaction number" Just to hear their response...

    Just thought I\'d warn you guys...their getting crazy in Montreal! I guess alot of people have fallen victim to these scams...I do feel pity for them, some people are just too trusting.

    It\'s probably sad the amount of people who actually do get taken by these idiots.
    Nice play though man...the deduction from the winnings was gold!
