It's true my friend, when you least expect it, things happen, that's why in these types of games, we should not be thinking about the big prizes, those things will happen when they allow it, we should just have fun, the result will come sooner or later.

From now on she will be checking every email , even in the spam folder . Lol . She was very lucky to see it , I do not know what would have happened if she hadn't seen it and hadn't contacted the Michigan lottery commission. I think if you don't claim money for done months , you lose the right to get them after these months pass !!!
Now she can live a luxurious life , retire earlier as she says , get gifts for family and close friends . May we also share some of her luck

This is my friend, sometimes we forget small details, and this lady forgot that she had a tremendous prize in an email, it usually happens, we must be attentive to this, and that this case does not happen to us.
Wow this is an unbelievable thing, how come they did not contact the woman by phone or sending a postal mail as we all know not everyone check their emails everyday let alone checking your spam inbox. Glad she did it though

Wow, unglaublich was für ein Glück. Normalerweise findet man im Spam Ordner irgendwelche Werbungen und Einzahlung Boni für etliche Onlinecasinos, aber eine Gewinnbenachrichtigung über 3 Millionen Dollar unfassbar. Gratulation an die Frau

these are stories that help us a lot, we must always be focused and attentive in what we do, this lady had forgotten that she was participating in a lottery, she didn't even know she had won, that's why this story is very useful, and gives us a nice lesson.
