ON May 22,2011, I recieved a telephone call From U.S. Global American Sweepstakes. They informed me that I had won the Global lottery sweepstake and was to recieve $1.5mil certified Check,$25,000 bonus prize and a brand new 2011 Mercedes. The call came from a legal office "Chaney & Whitman Atty's." The phone number that appeared on my home phone was 207-631-2777
The female secretary told me of my winnings and their representative would get in touch with me that day. As it was, The persons namme was Frank whitman,atty! He informed me that there was fee that had to be paid to get things going and that the only payment would be $1,500 to cover Gov't fees and thier employee to deliver. I had just collected on damages done to my home from a storm and I trusted them. You see, I had never had a call about winnings like this in my life and all I could picture was getting everything paid and fixed right. The thought of having money left over to help the rest of my family made me ecstatic! So I sent them the $1,500 but instead to sending it to their office I was to send it to Alfonso Aldo! Being so happy that i was a winner,I sent it to him. I later got another call from
frank ehitman,atty asking for more money to pay the tax stamps there were about 5 of those maybe six I was going broke and with out but I was going to get the prize! I kept listening to their reasons and my prize was on it's way BUT each time itwas almost here an emergency came up and they needed more noney. This was done to me three times and like the fool I was being I did it right up until yesterday,8/3/11 A new call came in saying that he was the mananger of the company and they needed more cash....this man wanted $1,900 for storage and dellivery! His name was Roger Wlliams.........I told him that I couldn't do it and he insisted there would be NO delivery without it. I told him to call me tomorrow and I'd let him know if I could do anything.

At that time my nephew saw what was happening and he lokked up the lottery name .......I WASN'T JUST SCAMMED, I WAS RAPED OF EVERYTHING I HAD AND ROBBED OF EVERY CENT.
I have all my reciepts and the names of were it went to but, Do I have any chance of getting any of it back?

thanks for anything that you can do.

D. R. Jacobs
