Special promotion with payment. Reviews about "Mother-in-Law's Language"
Hello, if you are so kind, take and send the money to the address, since I am a prize-winner and there is no need to invent anything and deceive the gullible buyers of your scanwords.
I erased the protective layer on the ticket, and then I looked at the number and it said that I won 2,500,000 million rubles. This is probably a scam, my number is: 89525097669.
We write letters of happiness to everyone who reads and thinks that this is a scam: http://letters.kremlin.ru/letters/send. I also received a letter to win 1,800,000 rubles. By the way, the last name was lied to by one letter. I'll call you tomorrow. If not, then hang in there guys.)
My mother won 100,000 rubles, she called and gave her data, a week later a coupon for 100,000 rubles arrived, the last name and street address were wrong by one letter, but our mail sorted it out, when she called a second time to ask about the data , then they told her we would call back. She called a little later, but the phone was unreachable. In general, we are all being deceived here, it seems to me that in this life only Putin can give a million to someone, and even then to a very sick person, with a mental disorder, with lung cancer and with 10 children.
I recently won 1,000,000 rubles in your magazine, I still can’t understand whether I won or it’s a scam. You didn’t send the person a camera, but what will happen to my 1,000,000 rubles?
I bought your magazine, and in it there was a card “Dog the ball will bring you good luck.” Where and how can I get a prize? Tel. which is indicated on the card does not respond.
Hello. My name is Natalya. I bought the Mother-in-Law magazine, at the end of the page there was a winning of 1,500,000 rubles. I won. But how can I contact you to advise how to get this money and is it true or is it a scam?
So, I’ll tell you a story that began with the Lisa-Horoscope magazine.
The magazine is light, just right to read on payday in the subway from work to home.
So, on the last page there was a colorful promotion with a ticket attached.
At the bottom of the page in small print was the following:
"Pochta-Service LLC is conducting a marketing campaign in order to promote new products....potential participants of the promotion are invited to find the prize code - TV set - 1 piece, refrigerator - 5 pieces, washing machine - 8 pieces, vacuum cleaner - 10 pieces, coffee maker - 15 pcs... potential participants, after providing their personal data and placing an order - purchases from the catalogue, become participants in the promotion with a prize of 2,500,000 rubles."
So, as a smart economist, I read this marketing opus and understood, like all smart people, the following - the list of limited prizes will be received by the one who erases the layer on the ticket and sees the name of the prize..
Since the text did not say that the prize on the ticket will only be received by those
who will win the drawing from among registered buyers.
So, not really hoping for a prize, I erase the ticket... and oh!! Bingo!! I'm missing the TV!
OK... I call the call center... I say, so and so, I have a winning ticket.
I ask, did I really win a single TV and there is no other ticket for winning a TV...?
The manager answered me... - Yes, you are the winner... they will send you instructions by mail... it will say when you can receive the prize...
OK... I'm waiting... I'm worried... I don't remember at all about the second drawing of the RUR 2,500,000 prize... Because I was happy about the fact that I won on the ticket, and then I became terribly upset because I was simply deceived.
In the end, it's a complete scam.

Each of you, little freebie lovers, probably dreamed of winning some large sum of money. But I won. Now I’ll tell you my secret to success.
First of all, buy some bright and almost free newspaper or magazine. In my case, it was either a newspaper or a magazine with the mysterious name “Oracle”. I’ll be honest - I wasn’t the one who bought it, I saw it at my parents’ house and became interested in this cute piece of paper attached to the “Oracle”.
Wow! As much as 1.7 million rubles! In general, I am a winner in life and this time, as always, I was lucky. I erased four treasured fields and - oh, Gods! - there is a winning combination there! - three ladybugs and a chamomile.
Well, here is the first million won. All that remains is to call the treasured number 8-800-100-00-36 and become the proud owner of a whole bunch of cache. Especially for you, my dear reader, I recorded this conversation. Sorry about the quality of the recording - this was the first time I used this software on a mobile phone.
As it turned out, everything is not so simple. Well... let's take a closer look at the terms of the promotion.
* LLC "Pochta Service" (127220, Moscow, Nizhnyaya Maslovka St., 8 OGRN 1057749621115) (hereinafter referred to as the "Organizer"), in order to promote new products through catalogs, carries out from 07.15.13 to 10.15.13 (extended until 12.15.13 ) marketing promotion with a main prize of 1,700,000 rubles. The specified promotion is not a game, competition, lottery, public promise of a reward or other event based on risk. This promotion is valid only for citizens of the Russian Federation over 18 years of age. Potential participants of the promotion are asked to call the indicated telephone and provide the number of the game card. Potential participants who provide their information by telephone to the organizer receive at the address specified by them a catalog with the organizer's product offer. Subject to ordering goods from this catalogue, these persons become participants in the promotion and have the right in the final of the promotion 12/15/13 claim the main prize - 1,700,000 rubles. Participation in the promotion must be registered until December 2, 2013. The winner of the main prize will be determined in the final of the promotion in a non-random way by a special commission in accordance with the “Rules for conducting marketing promotions..... etc.
Not by chance - is it clear to you? This is no longer a prize draw, friends! This is the real competition!
We go to storm Yandex, armed with the phone number of the organizers and find that in addition to my ladybugs and daisies, there are also safes with the same amount from the magazine "Liza", the same piece of paper attached to "Arguments and Facts" and from very recent - careless lawyers , scamming poor pensioners out of their last hard-earned money with the promise of getting the due prize through the courts.
Meanwhile, the website of the organizers of this whole story continues to thrive and there are no sanctions. I very vividly imagine the poor granny who first almost ordered herself a bunch of all sorts of obscenities from catalogues, and then almost lost the 170,000 rubles she had saved all her life on a careless lawyer. I would like to look at this ragged lawyer.
Years go by and nothing changes. Ten years ago, all sorts of magazines came in packs, in which there was a guaranteed win and photographs of the winners, but with us everything is still the same - now and then a naked scam, as in this case.
When our people will become smarter, I’m afraid to even guess.
There are a lot of lotteries. “Russian Lotto”, “Golden Key” and many others - tickets are sold on every corner, all draws are shown on television, and the results of the drawing are published in all-Russian publications and are available on the Internet. At first glance, everything looks fair.
In fact, you cannot control the fairness of such a lottery. And none of its participants can. If only because you don’t see the other participants. The optimistic presenter takes out kegs or balls with numbers, you mark them on your ticket and are about to win... Don't expect to win. There may be many like you all over the country. And then the presenter announces that the jackpot was hit by a certain Fyodor Kuznetsov from Blagoveshchensk.
And you lost. And not only you. And everyone thinks about this lucky Fedor and envy him. But no one wonders if this Fedor even exists in the world? The computer calculated that someone would win on the next move, and you were simply not allowed to finish playing until that move. How can I check this? But no way. You don’t sit next to the other players, as you did in childhood when we played regular lotto, and you can’t look at their tickets. Small amounts can be given fairly to the winners. But big wins are not determined randomly.
Sometimes the organizers go even further and give the main prize to the owner of a non-existent or unsold ticket. And if you can somehow track down fraud with a non-existent ticket (each lottery ticket has a special number), in the second case you will again find out nothing. And no one will know.
How to protect yourself from deception?
The only barrier that can protect you from lottery fraud is legislation. Today the state plans to put lottery organizers under even more stringent conditions. In particular, it is planned to limit the amount of equipment used in lotteries. The issue of payment terms will also be given to exact figures.
Control over the maintenance of the register of records of all-Russian, regional and municipal lotteries will also become more stringent, so regulatory authorities will be able to track the path of each ticket sold.
The methods of punishing unscrupulous lottery players will also change. For deception, false information, and the production of tickets without taking into account legal requirements, lottery organizers risk receiving a significant fine. The fine for using equipment, which has a high chance of hiding the true results of the lottery, will be even larger. If all these points are implemented, it will cease to be a way to line the pockets of the organizers and will become what it should be - a fair game for all residents of the country.
