• Abadi Holidays would like a lot of Kiwis to believe they are winners. The Department of Internal affairs is getting a flood of complaints from people who received vouchers in the post offering a chance to scratch and win. But everyone won the same second prize of $170,000 and some contacted the senders. They are usually told the winnings are not meant for them, but that the Abadi representative will check to see if they can be made eligible. Abadi ring back to say that they've been given the all clear, however a small fee will need to be paid to access the winnings.
