Oh my god, I just got this e-mail:

This is part of our security protocol to avoid double claiming and unwarranted abuse of this program by some participants.How did i win this e-mail lottery? Good question!!! All participants were selected through a computer ballot system drawn from over 20,000 company and 30,000,000 individual email addresses and names from all over the world. This promotional program takes place every three year. This lottery was promoted and sponsored by Gioco finance We hope with part of your winning you will take part in our next USD 50 million international lottery. To file for your claims, please contact  your fiducial agent.

This is so amazing!!  Now all I have to do is claim my winnings then I can say so long to all you poor losers!  Haha!  I am rich and so rich that I'm now flipping off my boss while I drop kick his monitor across the room!!  Yes, it was kind of hard to do all that at the same time, and yes, my foot now hurts.  But who cares!!  I'm rich, weathy, financially stable!  I'll buy a new foot and pay to get new friends too.  I rightfully won this lottery that I...somehow...randomly was entered into...

Whew.  Sorry, I got off track there.  Let's see...I now need to claim my winnings.  I need to contact my 'fiducial agent'?  I'm not too sure what a 'fiducial agent' is but I think they mean this person:  DR.TERRY LORENZO - E-MAIL: info_accuagent@yahoo.it.  Hmm, that's weird.  Why would my fiducial agent not have an officlal E-mail lottery address and instead have a standard Yahoo address?    Oh well, all they need is my bank account info to wire me the money.  

Later losers!
