Did you enter the lottery. If no its a scam.

Definitely fake, the only way to enter the national lottery is to buy a ticket costing £1 per line, also the jackpot is never as low as £1m.

Did you buy a ticket for the UK National Lottery? In the UK you have to pay £1 to buy a ticket in the lottery and pick six numbers. If your lottery numbers are drawn you then have to contact Camelot which is the lottery operator, they do not contact you as they do not keep any records of who plays. If you have not brought a ticket for the UK lottery how can you win? I suspect it is a scam and would bin the letter. If in doubt it may be worth contacting the National lottery to check whether you have really won £1000,000. http://www.national-lottery.co.uk/player/information.do?info=helparea

It is fake- if you go to the real national lottery website they sometimes tell you about fake e-mails if they are aware of them

I would treat it with caution.

If it is using a premium number and or asking for money, treat it as fake, there is a lot of them.

It's a fake. If you've won you've got to contact them. TThat's why there are so many unclaimed prizes!

It's a scam.



They will eventually ask you for your bank account number to send the money to.
