What is the name of your state? CA

An email is being sent to some people purporting to be from "dvlottery.state.gov", telling people that are "one of the lucky winners" of the DV2004 visa lottery, and requesting that they send $349.67 in "clearance/acceptance fees". These emails are fakes, and should be ignored.

My response:

That's right. We'd rather that you simply use that $349.67 to buy a plane ticket and GET THE HELL OUT of this country.

Thanks Lana.
