Congratulations! You have found $10 Grand buried right here!

Now just click here to pay $4.95 through PayPal to cover mailing charges, and we'll send you the cheque.

Isn't this marketing scheme open to wild scamming?? If nobody knows what the "You've won!" screen will look like, then it opens the door to scammers. You'll just "know" when you've won. "When you find it, it'll be obvious that the $10,000 is yours."
