Online
casinos
players
have
been
turning
to
online
lotteries
for
added
online
gambling
action.
One
lucky
online
casino
lottery
player
just
found
out
he
is
now
$100,000
richer.
It
wasn’t
easy
to
convince
him
either.
FreeLottery.com
player,
Thomas
Pyplatz
is
the
latest
player
to
hit
it
big
at
the
online
gambling
site.
He
is a
retired
firefighter
and
at
57
years
old,
he
is
ready
to
enjoy
a
bit
of
extra
money.
When
first
contacted
by
the
online
casino
site
regarding
the
fact
that
he
was
the
actual
winner,
he
didn’t
believe
it.
Well.
He
believes
it
now;
he
won
$100,000
in a
free
online
daily
lottery
drawing.
When
contacted
as
the
winner,
he
knew
that
he
had
signed
up
as a
FreeLotto.com
FAST
player.
These
players
have
numbers
their
numbers
randomly
picked
for
him
every
day
and
are
played
automatically.
This
is a
man
who
has
been
prayed
upon
by a
phone
scam
in
the
past,
so
convincing
him
that
he
was
actually
a
real
winner
was
not
easy.
He
got
a
letter
from
FreeLotto.com
that
explained
he
was
a
winner.
After
being
totally
convinced
and
filling
out
the
required
paperwork,
he
got
a
fat
check
in
the
mail.
Even
after
receiving
the
first
check,
he
was
a
bit
weary
of
Internet
scams;
still
after
the
check
cleared
he
was
a
bit
happier.
Now
Pyplatz
is
making
plans
to
spend
the
first
of
his
five
payments.
After
paying
off
the
usual
debts,
he
plans
on
possibly
treating
himself
to a
few
things.
The
CEO
of
the
parent
company
of
FreeLotto.com
said
that
getting
the
money
to
the
winner
was
not
very
easy.
After
all,
he
actually
won
the
money
back
in
August
2005.
Paperwork
was
sent
out
to
him
notifyinhg
him
of
his
winnings,
but
nothing
came
back
within
the
first
90
day
period.
Finally,
the
online
casino
lottery
company
tracked
him
down
by
phone
earlier
this
year
and
finally
convinced
him
that
he
really
was
a
winner..
After
reattempting
to
send
him
paperwork,
that
was
inadvertently
lost
in
post,
he
finally
got
his
first
check
in
the
mail.
After
the
long
battle,
the
winner
and
the
online
casino
lottery
site
were
happy
to
realize
the
dream
of
winning.
We
are
glad
to
see
it
all
worked
out
for
the
best.
With
so
many
scams
these
days,
it
is
easy
to
see
why
some
people
are
skeptical.
After
all,
he
was
an
automatic
player
and
probably
forgot
he
was
playing
in
the
daily
drawings.
