Default Spanish Lottery Scam...

I had a call from my mother(78 year old) last night telling me she had won $368,000(informed by mail) in a spanish lottery.She had rung a person in spain(mobile phone) to confirm. She was told she had to remit a certain amount of money to cover costs/taxes etc before money could be paid into her account..I tried to convince her that this was a load of bull.But to no avail.She was going to get her winnings no matter what I said..I did get the mobile phone no from her and rang and spoke to an english speaking bloke(from EL gordo lotteries) who informed me it was all legit etc, I politely asked to speak to his boss but was told nobody else spoke english.I hung up..This scam is number 1 on the list of Australian Dept of Foreign Affairs and Trade..What a bunch of utterly low bastards these mongrels are...Beware..
