So last Saturday morning, I was scrolling through my phone while drinking coffee like I always do. Saw this Labh Laxmi Virgo Weekly Lottery ad popping up everywhere – Facebook, WhatsApp groups, even text messages. Claimed big cash prizes every Saturday just for Virgos. Thought to myself: “Huh? Never heard of this before.”
First Reactions & Research Phase
First thing I did was Google it properly. Weird thing – couldn’t find any official website. Just hundreds of forum posts asking same questions:
- Where’s the actual company? (zero address found)
- How they pick winners? (no public draws)
- Any registration proof? (only saw forwarded screenshots)
Tried calling their “customer care” number from an ad. Rang 20 times then disconnected. Big red flag already.
Testing The Claim Process
Decided to test their “winning” process myself. Typed the lottery code from a viral post into their SMS system. Bam! Instant reply saying I won ₹25 lakhs! But then came the catch:
- Demanded ₹5000 “processing fee” via mobile payment
- Threatened legal action if I didn’t pay within 2 hours
- Blocked my number when I asked for company ID proof
Verifying Sources
Went digging through financial authority sites. Found official warnings:
No registered lottery under that name since 2020.
Checked viral winner photos – all had telltale editing artifacts around the “prize money” text. Reverse image search showed same “winner” pictures reused for different lotteries!
Conclusion & Lessons Learned
My verdict? Total scam operation. Wrapped it up in my notes:
- New numbers/texts appear every Saturday targeting Virgos
- Fake urgency tactics (pay now or lose prize!)
- ZERO verified winners after 3 weeks of tracking
If something feels too good to be true? It always is. Real lotteries don’t demand payments from winners. Stay sharp folks!
