Unfortunately, the insurance coverage policy on the lottery price money does not allow the funds to be deducted or even divided into lesser units until transfered to the winners account.
Secondly,the processing fee must be paid in full before any work involving processing and transferring your money to you account is started.
If this policy is not acceptable to you, you may decided to forfeit your price money to the lottery charity organizations.
Sincerely,
Douglas Mullers

 

I do not send any reply to him.
