Bueno, pues el día 8 de abril recibí este mensaje de la dirección
dv.visa.gov@consultant.com. No es de la página oficial del gobierno, y ahciendo memoria, recuerdo que hace como 5 o 6 años me apunté en una web muy parecida a la oficial en el sorteo de la green card, antes de enterarme que estas empresas presentan por ti tu "candidatura" y dan su dirección postal , en lugar de la tuya, por lo que si te toca, les envian a ellos la carta con el número de CN que te ha tocado, como explicó muy bien Mariano aquí:
http://www.marianolozano.com/2010/10/16/son-usafis-usagc-y-similares-una-estafa-para-la-loteria-de-visados/.
Da la casualidad de que ahora mismo no nos podemos ir, porque tenemos pendientes unos asuntos, y por eso mismo no me inscribí el año pasado en la lotería, como venía haciéndolo los dos ultimos años, en travel.state.gov, pero mi pregunta es si yo pagase los 880$ que piden, realmente me enviarían el CN o no es más que una estafa.
Otra cuestion es si me presento otro año, como ellos en teoría también presentan mi nombre, si vuelvo a salir elegido y ven que estoy duplicado, directamente el organizador del sorteo me elimina. ¿Hay alguna forma de que esta empresa elimine mis datos y deje de enviar solicitudes cada año automáticamente?
Aquí está el mensaje que me enviaron, he hecho un copy-paste de todo el texto del correo. Decir que, qunque no sale, hay una imagen del departamento de estado, para darle más importancia al tema:

Dear Jonatan Amblar ,

INSTRUCTIONS
Please read and follow all the instructions very carefully. With the Diversity Visa (also known as Green Card) you will enjoy all the advantages and benefits of a US permanent resident, including health and education benefits, and employment opportunities along with guidance in your new country, orientation sessions and programs to integrate into mainstream American society. Once received you can use it at any time you want to move in the United States or just travel. The visa must be renewed after 10 years.
Although you will have all the rights that a U.S. citizen has in the United States, without a relative or friend in the United States you may find the relocation difficult and expensive due the lack of experience in the American society. Therefore the U.S. Government helps you with the accommodation and offers you along with each visa Health Insurance (Freedom HSA Direct Individual Health insurance for 1 year), Dwelling(Apartment in any city you prefer, 1 bedroom for 3 months ), a guaranteed job(in the field that you are are currently qualified so you can start working even from the first week you arrive in the United States and get paid as U.S citizen. ) and education (for U.S. Students or Higher Education through EducationUSA. It includes transfer to a U.S college or Univeristy so you can continue your educational study. More details can be found at
http://educationusa.state.gov/ .)
We remind you that only the visa processing fee ($880) is mandatory and the visa is guaranteed upon receiving the payment.
Accompanying family members(wife/husband, fiancee, brothers, sisters, children, cousins) may be included in the program and their visas will be provided at the same time with yours so you can travel/move together in the same time. However the fees must be paid per person and each member(e.g wife, brother, parents, children, cousin) must pay $880. There is no discount for children.
Visa Payment processing instructions
The fees must be paid using Western Union money transfer and will be processed by the U.S. embassy in the United Kingdom.
