Almost exactly the same thing happened to me.

In my case, I bought one of those $1 Powerball lottery tickets one day. The next day, after they'd drawn all the numbers, I found that my ticket matched all six of them.

Well, like any twenty-first century, internet savy person... ...I know a scam when I see one. I tore up my ticket.

It's just like your mother always told you. "When something seems too good to be true, it probably is."

close call though.
