Finally not just 1 win but 2

YAY ive finally won not 1 but 2 foreign lottos!!!:T
im sooo happy, ive read about all of you winning and could only dream of the day that i won, and its happened!! just checked my gmail account which i had forgotten about and there sat two very exciting emails, one of which was from the international monetary fund and the other from Toyota saying id also won a car:eek:

Quick let me get my full name, addresses from the last 5 yrs, age, occupation, bank deatils, credit card numbers, and anything else they need to send me the money

HAHAHAHAH, they didn't even put any effort into the emails, no badly scanned logos or anything, im a little disappointed that they're not putting more effort in to try and get my money.

    Congratulations! You are SOOOOO lucky! What WILL you do with all your money when you get it?
    NOT!
    Grrrrr!

    Edit: I've won several Tesco, Sainsbury, Habitat and Homebase gift vouchers! At least 3 of each a day! I'm SOOOOO lucky too! ;)
    If you have nothing constructive to say just move along.
