A Perth mother sent flowers to the scammers who tricked her out of $50,000.  The woman thought she had won $130,000 from a scratchie sent to her home address allegedly by a Malaysian tourist company.

Commissioner for Consumer Protection Anne Driscoll:

In return for getting this final payment into her account she was under the impression she needed to make these additional payments for certificates, for releases and for taxes.

Australia Post has so far intercepted 5,000 of the scratchies
