Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

With all the confrontations & challenges the U.N. has to deal with, nothing like holding a lottery for a change of pace 😂🤣. I wonder about who came up with this scam as well as who could possibly fall for it? 🤔

Great! Now you can buy that new system...and a big house for it too!

 I had the same email this morning. I have already sent them all my personal details, bank account numbers and even the deed to my house which they needed to verify its actually me. Looks we'll have to split those winnings but I'm not complaining!

Hey there Charlie. When you get your winnings, could I bother you for a new(er) car? Mine is getting rather long in the tooth now at 26 years old!  😂

I understand that there are medications that mess with the brain's risk/reward system and make people less risk-adverse.  My best friend's mother fell for one of these and lost about $40,000 due to this.  Don't feel bad for her though, as she still had lots more and ended up not needing it anyway... still had lots in the accounts when she passed away.

You know what they say:  "If it sounds too good to be true..."
