FreeLotto.com
This company has so many complaints throughout the Internet I thought It deserved
an in-depth review so you will know what you are getting into if you decide to join.
On the home page you start by picking 6 numbers, then you are required to go
through pages of advertisements that requires you to pick some to receive more
information. You finally finish and you will get your confirmation emailed to you
showing your numbers that you picked.
They have one drawing per day located in New York. Who audits the honesty and
integrity of the drawing?......I guess they do. I could not find any information about it.
Gee, that sounds like the drawings are so fair.
The FreeLotto draw is for 1 million dollars and is paid at $40,000 per year for 40 years.
For any of their yearly annuity payments for the various games they offer, if you die,
the rest of your payments are forfeited. So much for leaving your kids or family any of
your winnings.
6 out of 6 pays 1 million with odds of..... 1:25,827,165
5 out of 6 pays $300 with odds of...........1:89,677,66
4 out of 6 pays $5 with odds of...............1:1,526,43
3 out of 6 pays $1 with odds of...............1:74,66
They offer other drawings like "win a car","pay off your mortgage", "fastcash",
"100kGiveaway", and the big ""SuperBucks $10 million Giveaway" which is paid at
$100k per year for 41 years with odds of 1:99,884,400. How would you like to hit that
one when you are 80 years old?
One of the "catches" is that to play all the games you have to play each game first in
order to go to the next one. You can't skip any and go straight to the $10 million game.
Of course you have to go through advertisement hell for each game played.
The day after I played my numbers I received an email from them. I was sent an official
looking document stating I won either $1 million, $300 or $5,000. To find out which
prize I won, I was required to fill out a form to continue. I first had to pick the option of
manually playing every day for free OR choose to have them automatically play my
numbers for me each day for a fee of $14.95 per month which would be automatically
taken out of my credit card.
One problem. No matter which option I chose, it required my credit card number to
continue so you won't forget to play and take a chance of losing millions of dollars.
Also they have a program that "Doubles" any prize you win for another extra fee.
Gee, I wonder if I lost my $1 million by not responding and refusing to type in my credit
card number? Digging further I found many complaints regarding this company.
Former players complained that by the time you realize you have only won a few
dollars here and there over time and when they discovered their bank wouldn't even
accept the $1 or $5 checks they sometimes were mailed, it was too late.
This is another company that once it gets your credit card number, your are in trouble.
When customers would try to cancel, they could not contact anybody to do it. Good
luck. It will never happen. So now they have to go through the pain of closing their
affected account, dispute the charges, and open a new account all because they
thought they might get lucky and win a fake lottery.
By now all they are thinking is "why oh why didn't I take the blue pill".
