While there is a real El Gordo Lottery in Spain, it is not sending out any winning notifications by email to people who never bought a lottery ticket from them. So if you received an email or a letter (postal mail) claiming you won in the El Gordo Lottery and you'd never heard of them before, you have received an example of the 419 scam, which is a type of fraud. Here are some examples of such fake lottery winning notifications.

There is a real Spanish Lottery company called El Gordo, which on its website distances itself from these scams and asks recipients of the scam emails to send them a copy.

We often receive reports of postal letters from Spain notifying people of a lottery win. These letters usually tell them to contact a company called "Santalucia Seguridad S.A. / Santalucia Seguros S.A." or something similar. If you have received such letters, please read our page on the postal mail version of this scam.

Details of a fraud
These are parts of a report from a victim who lost thousands of euros to the criminals.

I got the email that I won a public lottery of 3000000 US dollars with a title
of YOU HAVE JUST WON. It picked up an email address and a homepage
from a user of Microsoft company, and it was written that it was the result that
it was able to write in a lottery.
And it was written that this prize money became invalid if a time limit
approached and did not answer by the day charge account. The time limit day
was March 7. And it is Mr. It was introduced Moses Riew and his email
address..

Who approached you (please state full name, tel/fax. and e-mail
address)?

How did the suspect present the case to you?

At first they are Mr. Moses Riew at: I directed you to contact ( )
infoSA@mail2agent.com as soon as possible. An answer came immediately
when I took out an email to him. And I directed you to fill in a transmission of
a message form with all my personal data. It is my name, an address, a phone
number, a FAX number, an email address in the form that has been transmitted
afterwards. I made entry of banker name, my information of an international
passport, all the receipt methods of the prize money. I transmitted it. And an
answer came from Mrs Moor of Staners Agency. It was ordered to pay 800
euros in the next email for movement rate. I e-mailed it when I sent my check,
but it was introduced , CITADEL TRUST BV transport became impossible for
maintenance of a transportation company by the next email, and it was told by
the transportation company which was a client after having paid it when a bank
moved from that place. And is poetry Hara w for a tax of 4500 dollars
afterwards a powerful health insurance card sticks to this compensation, and to
move || was told unless it was it if kicked it. When CITADEL TRUST BV
furnished you with a loan of 5000 dollars when payment told that it was
impossible, I reported. However, I had to pay half the 2500 dollars to them.
Because it was moved by a platinum trust a subsidiary of CITADEL TRUST (
BV after having paid it, it was told that I accessed e-bank. And it was handed )
account information, but was not able to access e-bank. It was said that it was
not necessary to pay a tax anymore. However, the platinum trust was violated
by computer virus, and it was told that a remittance became impossible. And it
was introduced Midas Trust Group http://www.midastg.com which was a
subsidiary of a platinum trust. It was said that I used their e-bank, and it was
handed account information. With them, I tried start, but made a blunder. It was
told to pay 8500 euros for start rate.
