Dear ,
I Mrs Gloria C. Mackenzie gladly appreciate your response to my email in respect to my donation of$2,500,000 USD to you and your amazing family.I really did not expect a response from you especially due to the rapid scam on the internet and news of people loosing their money and homes to fraudsters over the internet with false promises and letters of lottery winnings.I was surprise to check GOOGLE and'I' saw my link there that people are using toscam other claiming to be me,i was so angry but nothing to do than i have to come up with this ideal that who ever i send email will have to reply me with this code (112G) or the mail you get is fake. I am aware of all these evil deeds in the society in this present age but back in our youthful days it was totally different as our major fear was war. But considering my age and strength i cannot personally go around traveling hours to your home and the homes of other 4 beneficiaries like yourself who have already benefit from my donation, for that reason alone that's why I'm contacting you via email personally to avoid any sort of misconduct.I know this is highly shocking,for you to have received my email and i know you must be skeptic about how i found your email,but know that my son Scott help me get your email from an email directory that is directly connected to GOOGLE.Considering how evil and selfish people are these days i don't trust handing over this transaction to anyone at this earliest stage except my pay-out bank, which will be contacting you later, only after i am satisfied that you can be trusted. TheDEUTSCHE BANK AGwhich is a well trusted bank inENGLAND are the bank currently handling my investment and distribution of my financial donations to Charity Homes, Communities, Schools, Hospitals and wonderful beneficiaries like yourself.
I could have applied the assistance of my son Scott Mackenzie but since our newly found wealth he has become a little bit irresponsible and not trust worthy in financial terms that is why i have taken upon myself in contacting you personally via this medium, which i sincerely apologies for. I am not very enlightened with the internet but the little i know is checking my emails and replying to my messages. I have chosen you as one of my beneficiary and I'm contacting you directly because i will need you to provide me with your.
She was eager to move back into the shadows after her Powerball lotto win though, and soon after the cheque was issued, the house where Gloria lived was found empty. She had traded in her old home in Zephyrhills for a $1.1 million dollar home in Glen Kernan Country Club.

Where Is Gloria Mackenzie Now
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/05/gloria-mackenzie-powerball-lottery-winner-claims-may-jackpot_n_3390875.html
I decided to donate to the needy, less privileged and charity projects all over the world, and make at least 7 families happy. At this point in time of life at this age 84 years i have little or no more fantasies but my major concern is ensuring that i put my Powerball Lottery Prize of $590,500,000.00 into good use by ensuring that i am able to make at least 7 unknown families happy and be able to bring that fantasies into manifestation, making their fantasies become reality.
I also want to launch a scholarship fund, and will donate to charities, particularly those supporting adoption.ever since I won the Powerball jackpot,I have been investing ahead of the future for my kids & grand children, as i just bought some houses in Germany, Australia also in London a beautiful warm island and very sunny during summer. All this investment are been control and monitored by my pay-out bank here in London which is theDEUTSCHE BANK AG United Kingdomis basically an holiday resort country perfect for vacation far from the United States media and publicity of our new wealth.
However because i am currently on vacation here inUK , I had to deposit your Cheque with theDEUTSCHE BANK AG.I choose theDEUTSCHE BANK AGto make the transfer of my donation amount to you because they have the full capacity to make such transfer go through successful without delays and mainly because they are currently advising and handling my funds and housing investments.
I find it really amazing receiving appreciation gift and emails, already today i have received 2 appreciation letters from Katie the daughter of Mrs Dorothy Perkins who is only 9 years old, such appreciations really makes me feel alive and gives me a reason to do more. This kind of emails i receive from beneficiaries gives me so much joy and i am really happy for you being one of my beneficiaries. Though sometimes its difficult to make beneficiaries believe they have really won, for example Mrs Dorothy Perkins told us that she received her own funds, though she was a little scared and afraid as a result of different scams going on in the internet today, but she made up her mind, she trusted us and she followed theDEUTSCHE BANK AGinstructions, which facilitated to the safe transfer of the funds which i donated to her family.
I hope you will be able to use the money wisely and judiciously over there in your Area. I also will employ you to do what you can to alleviate the level of poverty in your region and also try to enhance the standard of living of as many people as you can because that is my major objective of donating this money to you.
Your Sincerely ,
As countless stories about the downside of winning the lottery have shown us, sometimes money brings out the worst in people. In the case of Gloria Mackenzie, a record-breaking jackpot should have been cause for celebration. Instead, a few years after the win, Gloria ended up in the courtroom, suing her son for mismanagement of her funds.
WHO IS GLORIA MACKENZIE?
Gloria Mackenzie Scam
Gloria Mackenzie is a Florida woman who made headlines at the age of 84 when she won a staggering $590 million Powerball jackpot. At the time, in mid-2013, Gloria’s was the biggest sole lottery win in US history. After tax, Gloria took home an impressive $278 million.
Before making history with her lottery win, Gloria Mackenzie lived a simple life. She married her husband Ralph L. Mackenzie in 1951, and they moved to a trailer park together in Zephyrhills, Florida. She lived there with him until his death in 2005, according to her lawsuit, and then began living on Social Security. Ralph and Gloria had a couple of children, including daughter Melinda and son Scott. Trouble for Gloria started when she trusted Scott to help her manage her windfall.

WHAT HAPPENED TO GLORIA MACKENZIE’S MONEY?
According to Gloria’s lawsuit, the trouble started nearly from the get-go. After placing half of Gloria’s winnings into trusts and other entities with the intention of creating tax savings so that Gloria could pursue her charitable goals, Scott convinced his mother to give him half of her winnings. According to Gloria’s attorney, Scott told Gloria that he had given her half of the $10 that went toward buying the winning lottery ticket. However, it’s unclear whether this is the truth. Gloria’s attorney says there is confusion surrounding whether Scott simply did some work around the house to earn the $5, or if he happened to hand it to her just before she gave it to the lottery clerk. Regardless of the truth, Gloria did give Scott half of her winnings, as well as power of attorney over her own fortune.
With her remaining money, Gloria gave an undisclosed amount to her other children. She also purchased a 6,300-square-foot home in the Glen Kernan Country Club. The five-bedroom home was recently estimated to be worth $1.13 million. Documents show that the deed to Gloria’s home was initially transferred to her daughter Melinda in June 2013. However, by the time Gloria filed her lawsuit against Scott, records showed that it was in Scott’s name.
THE LAWSUIT
Gloria Mackenzie Lawsuit
Gloria first filed her lawsuit against Scott Mackenzie in late 2018 or early 2019. Scott immediately motioned for the suit to be thrown out and was successful when a judge dismissed it in February 2019. However, Gloria and her attorney filed an amended version in March 2019. At that time, Glory was 90 years old.
The lawsuit alleges that Scott—who Gloria had trusted not only with her money but to be her caretaker in her old age—acted in bad faith. It also accuses Scott of breaching his legal duties as power of attorney and receiving unjust enrichment after exploiting his mother, a vulnerable adult.
Aside from Scott’s manipulation to receive half of his mother’s winnings and the deed to her home, Scott also hired an inexperienced financial player to manage Gloria’s fortune. Instead of researching a professional with experience managing large windfalls, Scott hired a local radio host of a call-in finance advice show. In addition to hosting his radio show, Hank Madden also worked for Madden Advisory Services. However, the lawsuit alleges that there had been complaints about Madden’s ability to manage funds from prior clients.
The lawsuit alleges that Scott gave Madden control of millions of dollars, which he then failed to invest appropriately while doing minimal trading. On top of the ill performance of the investments, Madden also charged exorbitant fees, charging Gloria at least $2 million.
MOTHER AND SON AT ODDS
Gloria’s attorney claims that much of Gloria’s decision-making was based around the idea that her son would take care of her in her old age instead of hiring nurses or going into assisted living. Instead, Scott ended up kicking Gloria out of her own home after she was injured in a fall. Gloria was forced to move in with another one of her children.
In April 2019, Scott’s attorneys submitted a motion to dismiss Gloria’s latest lawsuit. The motion alleges that Gloria wanted her funds to be invested conservatively, and Scott saw to those wishes. Through his lawyers, he released a statement saying he was deeply disappointed in his family and strongly disagrees with their actions. He concluded the statement by saying he would not be commenting further until the case is heard.
The outcome of Gloria’s amended lawsuit is still unknown, though it is set to be heard in late 2019 or early 2020.
CONCLUSION
Gloria Mackenzie Foundation
Many people fantasize about winning the lottery, but it’s clear that only a fraction of that population considers the reality of the situation once they receive their prize. We’ve seen time and again how much trouble lottery winners have managing their fortunes, and Gloria Mackenzie’s sad story is just one more reminder of the importance of finding a trusted financial advisor to help with the aftermath of hitting the jackpot.

While it can be infuriating to read about greedy people like Scott, it's nice to know that not everyone who suddenly has a big fortune at their fingertips behaves the same way. One incredible example is Powerball winner Thomas Cook, who won a $22 million jackpot and followed through on a 28-year promise to share the winnings with a friend.
