Can you please till me if the UK lottery Fiduciary if real?

Question

I received a mail from United Kingdom Lottery Fiduciary that i won in the lottery.

Answer 1

It's a scam, pure and simple.

When you buy a lottery ticket in the UK, they don't take your email address.  So how could they possibly email you to tell you that you won?

And if you think that they randomly award the prize money to random people around the world that don't even pay to play, forget it.

The link is to a page on the official site, warning of scams like this.

Answer 2

This is a SCAM. The below links confirm various email scams. There is also an online form for the reporting of such - (with links for your own country.) :

Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these thieves. Please remember the messages are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.
