I've won several million pounds. Is it offensive to tell people this? I will need to tell my boss when I quit my job, the estate agent when I buy my mansion and I'm going to order a Ferrari too. And a yacht. Tbh I didn't even know I'd entered, but an official from Lagos has confirmed it and took my bank details so my money could be paid in.

If anyone wants any cash, let me know. Otherwise, laters non-millionaires, I'm off to see an accountant.

hawaiiWave · 30/08/2012 12:55

Yes you can have some cash, and a party invite for the yacht.

Yy. Tell people. And buy me some stuff to would you?

That bloke in Lagos isn't my boyfriend who needs some cash to get out of a tricky legal debacle is it. He is lush.

Apparently I won a few million 6 months ago, like you it was a prize I didn't remember entering anything for, all I had to do was pay a few hundred pound 'shipping costs' so someone could transport my cheque to me. Seemed legitimate to me.....

I won two million on the Eurolottery (not Euromillions) last week, word has definitely got out even though I tried to keep it secret, as my husband has started receiving calls on his mobile from a 20yo female from Ghana wanting to be his friend..

hawaiiWave · 30/08/2012 13:09

Eyescrossed - oh goodness, I wonder if that's why I've had a couple of chuggers come to the door this morning??looks like news travels fast in both our cases.

I'll have some cash please Grin Altho I probably shouldn't need it as some relative I've never heard of has died and left me millions, all I gotta do is send them my bank details and they'll make the transfer :)

KellyElly · 30/08/2012 15:10

Yes please, I need some cash Grin

MrsTerryPratchett · 30/08/2012 15:16

I have inherited money from Malaysia. With a proper letter and everything, not an email so it must be real.

HecateHarshPants · 30/08/2012 15:19

I haven't won the lottery recently, but apparently there's a cream I can buy that will double the size of my penis.

DizzyKipper · 30/08/2012 15:20

Put me down for some free cash you generous, wonderful philanthropist Wink

oldraver · 30/08/2012 15:22

Oooh I have recently won a prize in this country, it could be anything up to a car -but suspect it is the spa day as there are 1000's of them to win--.

All I have to do is phone a line that will cost about £10

GoldenHandshake · 30/08/2012 15:26

I beat you all, I have been bequeathed millions and millions of dollars from various men who have all died in aeroplane crashes and listed ME as their beneficiary! I must have about $300 million coming to me any day now... not seen much about these plane crashes on the news though Hmm

ShiftyFades · 30/08/2012 15:29

I haven't won the lottery Sad
But there are £x,000s waiting for me for my recent accident and PPI claim Grin
Oddly though, I must have suffered amnesia in the accident as I can't remember it not can I recall ever having a loan where I was naive took PPI Confused
But it must be true, the texts say so Wink

I'll have to be quick because I have several prizes to claim today, plus I have to email my bank details to a worker in a bank that has millions of dollars in accounts left by people who died without any friends or families. She's going to go halfers with me.

If you see me, give me a wave won't you? I'll be the (very slim cos I've completely reduced my body fat) one driving the VW Polo whilst typing on my ipad and wallowing in millions of dollar bills.

Ooops, 3 of my accounts have been suspended, I'd better dash.....
