Look pretty convincing.
Email the real national lottery and ask them.

7 series numbers are usually mobile phones.
07045 doesn't seem to be listed.
Seems a bit dodgy to me.
As Avoneer says contact them another way.
ACE Cafe - Just say No.

with these threads i can never work out if someone is being sarcastic - DS must be, pat almost certainly is, but neil is either taking it seriously or
going to a new level of sarcasm - 'bit dodgy' ?!
Every nuance of the email is laughable!
The best bits in bold:

I particularly like the signature,
Grandon Danny (phd) !!
With an "original" name like that you'd at least have thought he could get a Yahoo email address to match instead of using
Brian Adams!!

Simple question to ask yourself. Did I actually enter that lottery. If not why would anyone have given me a free ticket.
