Today's Scam

Now ask yourself a question... Why would Canada be sponsoring a Lottery to honor a South African World Cup that is 4 years from now. Hell why would Canada be sponsoring a Lottery to celebrate anything South Africa does? PLEASE, do not be stupid enough to ask is this real. If you do, I will get nasty.
