And then there's lottery jackpots. Given that there are millions of prizes around the world every day up for grabs - and players grabbing them too - what is the smallest amount you'd expect to see on a lottery site?

Yes, a mere $5,000 makes the news these days. But it gets worse...

The UK National Lottery advertises £10 winners on its website - a site that is ranked as the 58th most viewed site in Britain. You would think they'd put up a few million dollar winners there instead of a token amount that almost anyone can win.

The UK National Lottery is a high ranked website according to Alexa.com, with a Google page rank of 8 out of 10.
