If there is a floating drawing date, a promise to return monies, or the holding of checks of any kind.... it's a scam. Real raffles commit to a drawing date, have a valid state license, and they don't renig if they don't sell "enough" tickets to cover their nut.

One wrong surf by the wrong person in the state AG's office and they are toast.

Honestly... wouldn't you see more?
