SOUTH AFRICAN NATIONAL LOTTERY says beware of scams!

These people must have a sense of humor. This one even warns you of scams or fraudulent e-mails. Some even say "This is not a scam!"

Richard Umlazi, the so called attorney, is using a mobile phone and he is reachable on weekends! Hardly surprising I would say.
