My name is Anthony Leisure, residing in the United States. Recently, I engaged with an online casino application named Yea Master Slots, operated by Green Ark Limited, a company based in the UK with the registration number 08392194. In summary, I made purchases of coins and participated in gaming activities, resulting in a redemption of $1,929.00. Subsequently, I contacted the company to confirm that the funds would be transferred to my PayPal account, and I received assurance that the redemption would be processed accordingly via email hyperlink. However, shortly after receiving confirmation of the redemption, I was surprised to receive another email stating that my account had been banned due to the unavailability of games in the state of Georgia. Consequently, all purchases made would be refunded. Despite the assurance of reimbursement, I have yet to receive the owed funds. It is worth noting that the Yea Master Slots application remains active and accessible, contradicting the claim of a ban in Georgia. Given these circumstances, I am seeking prompt resolution and the release of the funds owed to me. I urge Green Ark Limited to honor their commitment and ensure the timely transfer of the redemption amount to my PayPal account.

I received a text along with 5 other people stating the the person was Becky Bell who was the winner of a very large lottery and she wanted to share her Lottery winnings with me and the other people but, we needed to text our full names to Agent Charlie Lynn at 937-738-0017 from the the multi state lottery association. Once you text the above number, a QR code is sent and the person request that you give them the code even though it states “Do Not Share With Anyone.” When I stated that the information was confidential they then asked if I didn’t want to proceed with giving the code to claim the $300,000. When I said that it says not to share with anyone the person said not to worry and they are not there to play with $300,000 and that it was not a scam. Of course the verbiage used was not correct and there were a lot of missing words but, once I said that I would decline, they no longer pursued. I looked the number up and it was connected to a dating/adult entertainment web site.

I received a letter in the mail stating that I won second place, 1.5 million dollars, in the US MEGA (under the international Sweepstake Draw). Enclosed was a check for 3700 dollars, BUT I could not cash the check until I sent them 2250 dollars processing fee. Once my check cleared, I could then cash the check for 3700 and then they would be in contact regarding the balance of the 1.5 million. I recognized it as a scam but wanted to let other people know.

An man called and said we won lottery money from 2018 lottery and that to claim it we needed to get a certificate of ownership in order to claim it. The Anderson Law Office in Washington DC or Virginia needed $18,000 to pay the 1% to the IRS to claim the money. The man said we could take our a second mortgage to get the money and he knew mortgage company who could lend the money.

I refuse to be a part of this and told my husband, "no deal". Nobody pays to get sweepstakes/lottery money.

My grandmother placed 1$ for a lottery opportunity, instead they charged her $275

When we contacted them and ask for a refund they -literally- laughed at us saying it was our fault for placing that order.

I was approached on FB Messanger by the scammer tis is what it will cost to get the winnings delivered to my Home in Canada. Beyond that they kept Demanding additional fees, border duties, Transportation, and the list goes on. All paypal Funds was Funnelled an Individual named Richard Schultz ¨. The FEDEX Agent who was calling the shots was Andrew Beadle. These names were possibility Fictious just for Procedure. After my savings thru Paypal Exhausted they demanded Prepaid Apple cards . All payments were made in US Funds. I would meet their Financial Demands then they would Create more fake fees for Paperwork, Registry etc. I am now financially broke, cant get my money spent thru bank. I am financially Destitute.
