I have a question why was I told my internet connection was too slow on the
exit page of www.grab.com this exit page lied to me I have a very fast
connection. Such advertising would lead me to think that www.grab.com was
the fake, sorry the asp tells me its the other way round. I did notice they
avoided using your company logos.

Other thing is there is no point anyone outside Canada or the US playing YOU
CAN NOT WIN, read the small print. Given the fact that there is no prize
fund under British law its not a prize draw, they just have insurance
against anyone winning. That funny pub loto thing had the same thing and it
was deemed unfair.

I think the guys ripping off the site have almost as much chance of giving
away $1 000 000 000 as your site does; very very close to 0.
