- Avoid Lottery Scams. You should be careful about potential scammers who may send false announcements regarding lottery prizes. As part of the scam, an individual is contacted by phone, email, text message, or a letter from a scammer who is claiming that the recipient has won a prize from the lottery. This is a fraudulent claim and there is no such prize. Never respond to these communications and never provide information or send money to a scammer. WARNING SIGNS OF A SCAM: The official lotteries do NOT know who the winners are until they come forward with a winning ticket. The lottery does not notify YOU, you will notify them. The official lotteries NEVER require the payment of any money in order to claim a prize. No one should ever send any money to pay a ‘processing fee’ or any another requested fee in order to claim a prize. Never provide any personal or financial information to a scammer, especially phone numbers, national ID details, mobile money details, bank account numbers, and credit card numbers. If you suspect a scam, report it to our Fraud Unit via our website or mobile app or the Police.
