    Congratulations!! LOL! My boss once got an email to this effect with a phone number to call so that he could give his bank details over the phone so that they could transfer the money. He called them up pretending to be really excited and acting dopey. He kept this foreign guy on the phone for a couple of minutes, then put on a serious voice and told him that he had made the mistake of trying to scam the director of a security firm (true), and that the call had been traced and the relevant authorities were being notified (false - obviously!). He then swore at him a few times and put the phone down.....hmmm not productive perhaps but fun!!

    first I'd give some to my church, they sure could use some. Buy a house with about 20 acres of land. Put a new motor in my truck, get a new camper. Adopt a few more dogs. Give some to charity, help out my family. Fix up my husbands old truck (73 Dodge) move into my new home, get a couple of horses, cows, chickens, pigs, and farm a little. Sounds like the perfect life for me.

    Pay taxes (35%)

    Out of the money left I would divide it as follows:

    Charity 25%

    Buy land and a house $200,000

    Buy a car $30,000

    Buy family presents $10,000\

    Put rest in bank

    i would sit on the money for a couple of years and act as if i don't have it (so many people want to be your friend after you hit the lottery). but i would always buy the things that would be a good future investment...house, land, etc.

    Oh my goodness...I could think of a million things!

    First, I would probably scream, pee my pants, then pass out. And I probably wouldn't even bother to be embarrassed when I woke up though cause I'd be a freaking millionaire. I'd just call my mom and tell her she never has to work again and then I'd run around screaming wooooooo hoooooooo!! I'd have plenty of time to think about what to do with all the moolah after that. Thanks for the temporary fantasy.... :-)

    Divide it between all my family members. Invest in some real estate and stocks so I can live comfortable for the rest of my life and if I have some left over give it to charity. Or maybe even start my own charity!

    I would buy all the members of my extended family a house, car and pay for their kids education. I would do the same for my best friend, and myself. And I would donate every last cent left over to charity.
