I recieved an e-mail from UK NATIONAL LOTTERY OFFICE (uk_lottery.paymentoffice1@yahoo.co.uk) that sais I won £500,000 Pounds Sterling (aprox. 1.000.000 $). After I sent my personal informations, they asked me to pay £850 Pounds Sterling for the transfer of the money, but I dont received any documents to certified them. Why am I sceptical: no tickets were sold, it was an automated computer ballot; it is a too big sum for a lotto without tickets; everytime another person contact me; they want I pay the transfer when it sholud be free; they called me with a secret number; I am in Italy, they in UK; they can take my money and disappear. However, we speak about a big sum, that’s why I’m asking your opinion: Can I trust in this? How can I verify them?

Recently received an email that said my email address had been chosen so I was the winner of part of the UK national lottery. Then emails followed asking for typical info (no bank acct # or SS#).

I receive an email in which declared that I won for the Yahoo lottery August prize, but all the phone numbers that they introduced me is incorrect.
So, I want to know if realy I have won or this is a fraud.

I got an email stating that I had won $1,200,000, a dell inspiron 6400 notebook, and a UK Lottery brand t-shirt and baseball cap. They gave me a ticket number and a tracking number so I can locate the package at all times. But they want me to send a shipping fee and claim they can’t take it out of the prize money because of the insurance policy. Is this legitimate or just another scam?
