Topic: Win a Lamborghini for 0.00056 BTC - page 5. (Read 16869 times)
Is this legit? I mean we are all aware to those scams. At first they said that it is free to join or you can join by paying small amount to the raffle. I didnt say that it happens all the time. The point is, thats the often scenario. And nobody knows if theres a winner of that said raffle. Im open to talk. Enlighten me. Thank you.
I have a feeling that we will be seeing alot of these "Win A lambo", or "Win a Ferarri", or "Win a LandRover" threads in the next coming few weeks due to the huge popularlity that this thread has created. Basically it will be similar to the Bitcoin forked coins right after Bitcoin Cash proved to be a huge success.
And the problem will be that most of these will be scams, even though they can easily be legit if it ends up being run on a smart contract where the code can be inspected and then the company/person holding the contest can make easy %'s of the entire proceeds and all they would need to do is buy the car and deliver it to the winner. Not rocket science.
However these raffle are easily going to be turning into scams since people just want to make a quick BTC and disappear with the funds.

Unfortunately, in a smart contract it is impossible to fix the obligation to transfer the car to the winner in such a way that the lottery organizer could not deceive.
However, it is possible to prescribe in the smart contract the amount of winnings in coins equivalent to the cost of Lamborghini or any other machine and transfer this amount to the winner.
Well in that case to avoid the counterparty risk, the smart contract would send all the winning ETH to the winners ETH address and send a small % for the contest creator for his hard work in getting the contest run and successful.
Honestly, most people would much rather have the money than own a lambo. If I won, I probably wouldn't be able to afford the insurance or would be scared to drive it due to rock chips or getting it vandalized.
Most people would sell it and buy a house instead. The "Lambo" is just a meme which was created originally a few years back when some early adopter sold his BTC and bought an actual Lambo (or Ferrari ) and it started a trend right after.
As of this moment, there are 2 threads holding their lambo lottery. Will be interesting how they will end up to? The other one has progress bar showing the percentage of tickets sold.
Seriously? What's with the lambo? I really thought that this is the same with the other one. Are they making fun with us? While seem they really confident that they can bait a bag of money. Crazy people.Quote
But the authenticity is questionable. No transactions just progress bar.
Uh huh, probably it's a fake progress just to lure buyers instead.

It will happen in the future or maybe in the next days, weeks, or months people qill attracting when reading a "winning a Lamborghini" like this one it has a good sales and odd compare to some lottery site, but the worst scenario like what you said its easy to scam or cheating in a game.

People should accept the fact that if they send money to these sites, there should be no regrets or cursing that they were cheated. They should know what they are getting into in the first place.

Wow, more "win a Lambo" stuff. OP, your post isn't convincing because not only is the "proof" Lambo you have actively on sale from a car dealership, it has been used in the past as a promotional piece for Lamborghini raffles, which obviously have been scams multiple times over since the car is still apparently owned by you. Plus a $100,000 payday wouldn't be half bad either, considering the fact that it's on sale for just over $350,000.
Your idea isn't bad considering the fact that you can still buy the Lambo with the funds that you earn from the raffle, so I guess you have that going for you. But I wouldn't touch this with a ten-foot pole because either way, it does not look legit at all. This is like opening a raffle and then saying "I'll buy the item with the proceeds from the raffle". You likely don't own it and are gunning for a large payout in conjunction with the "good will" from succeeding with the raffle. I can't bring myself to trust a newbie either.
Solid pass, thanks for the offer.

Yes, here in the topic all write about it. Most people do not believe that Lamborghini can be honestly played in a lottery between all participants.
For the OP, I would advise at the beginning to spend a few raffles with prizes much cheaper, to earn a reputation and people's trust.

you can actually participate in a very trusted website for the same thing I don't know who would pick this one.
Perhaps the odds are better on this one, the ratio of payout to ticket sales gives the odds roughly or it might be the terms are more flexible on this offer considering a few countries are extremely harsh on the ownership of cars. I dont know, I havent compared the two on fine print details since I'm not buying a large amount of tickets in either one and could barely afford the fuel for a LAMBO nevermind the insurance! Surely thats the biggest thing to critique on either

No one will be force in buying the tickets, we do have our own opinions about this but since there's actually people who loves taking the risk and dreamed for a big outcome, this one is for them to tried out, small portions of btc that can be converted to a lambo after, luck will bring something that only in dreams to be imagine, nothing to be expected but the results being posted here will be determine the legitimacy of this offer.

I think the only reason why this person got more interest than the other "win lambo" type of raffles is that this guy actually sold his house for bitcoin before and he has doxxed himself willingly to prove that he is not lying and dude even got on news couple of times and gave interviews and got his news printed on newspapers.
I am not saying that makes him legit but compared to someone who we do not know and have no clue about I would prefer to go with the dude I can track down at least right? Not saying both of them are legit or not but one looks more legit than the other at least. Of course, when there is places like freebitcoin that is doing the same thing and you can actually participate in a very trusted website for the same thing I don't know who would pick this one.

This isnt a crypto based lottery or gambling operation, its a totally paper based conventional centralised operation with a government based regulator and national legal court oversight. I would classify it as a personal contract pretty much, its a common event in UK to run a minor skill based contest with random winner. Non of those points about a blockchain would be relevant to something entirely based in bricks and mortar.
The one proviso is the open offer to accept ticket purchases via Bitcoin, thats it just the payment terms. Otherwise as everyone noted, theres local tie to a car based asset. Its possible they pay out cash but I think that only happens if not enough tickets sell.
Heres a copy of the terms for anyone who cannot follow the link in the OP - https://i.imgur.com/RhDH8s7.jpg

This is what it comes down to. Trusting in the individual who is carrying out the raffle and can prove they are actually going to payout the grand prize once they have collected enough money to cover the costs of it in the first place.
You did say if they put some kind of binding law as part of a smart contract then it would be easier to decide whether you would take part in the draw.
Many hospitals hold such raffles and give away large expensive homes, trips and very expensive cars as the prizes. But nobody denies their reliability to payout the winners at the end because they are doing in part of a lottery corporation. So they are liable if there is any dispute in the conduct of their raffles.

Unfortunately, on the basis of a smart contract it is impossible to fix the mandatory dispatch of Lamborghini. However, you can fix the mandatory sending to a predetermined address amount of money collected in the lottery. For this purpose, you can use a trusted guarantor or legal entity.
Sorry for asking stupid question or the questuon that was already answered here, but was already mentioned what model of lambo is involved in this competition and will it be new or used?
The raffle contest is good and the same being done for a cause is really great thinking. The raffle is perfectly legit and will get good number of participants. A Lamborghini for just 0.00056 is really good way of trying our luck. All the best for all the participants.
How can you so sure about what you write? What we talked is about lambo so there is no way to use 0.00056 to get one, you should realize that. And if someone manage to get it by using 1 tickets, I would like to know if they are really pay or not, since there is no prize yet I believe. Btw is this site still run or not? There is no new thing or any updates about what is going on here
Ok so granting that I won the Lambo, so how is it going to be shipped to my door step? I tried to read the rules and I checked that the promoters will shoulder up to 10,000 Euros only or equal to 11,300 USD for the expenses but how much will it cost to ship that Lambo from Europe to my country which is the Philippines. I hope its convertible to cash.
They will support the shipping of Lambo to your country if I read it correctly. They will shoulder all the expenses. The raffle is perfectly legit
How can you make sure? Do you have a backer for this? The account on the conductor of raffle is newbie and what if he's just using the face of that guy for this? 
I think blockchain could resolve that uncertainty, all people who buy a ticket could be attributed with some sort of seed or a code or something and at the exact date whenever the whole money is collected it could be picked at random by that blockchain as well.
I don't really know blockchain in tech that well to actually come up with something like that but I am sure there are people out there that can build a lottery blockchain like that which would really make all the lottery thing provably fair as well and that way we would know nobody really gives it to someone they know and it would be trustless as well like blockchain is.
I think this person could be true though because he has done it before and since he would be making money from this he has no reason to scam anyone.

Raffles are always hit and miss. Basically whenever you buy some ticket for a raffle somewhere physically like buying some tickets which proceeds go towards some charity where you can win a car or house or TV, how do you know those are fair?
I basically never bought any of those tickets before because I honestly believe that the winner is some friend or family members to the organization that started the raffle in the first place. Impossible to predict whether its fair or not.
But with Crypto and Provably fair and Smart contracts, its possible for the lottery to be 100% fair and verifiable. Basically like the popular saying goes "Don't trust, verify!".
Hence I think the OP should just do this raffle on a smart contract, most likely ETH, hire some audit company to check the code and this way everybody is sure the raffle won't be a fraud.
