I thought I'd seen the Sicklemores in the news before. These were the people that tried to shift their house through a raffle a few years back.

The things people do, eh?
Actually seems to be getting quite common, not only in the UK:

But not so easy, apparently this contravenes the Gambling Act as per this link:

Dis this dodgy 'dental technician' pay out to anyone gullible enough to enter?
After watching the news recently regarding the dodgy dentist (!) I realised that he had also been responsible for endeavouring to raffle off his house - the house was never raffled as apparently he did not sell enough tickets. If memory serves me correctly a random raffle ticket was picked and the winner got a cut of the money that had been collected!!!!!!!!
This obviously looks like another scam so I contacted the Police and told them the above information. Needless to say I haven't heard anything else from the Police since I called!
Please
