I had an email yesterday from the Royal National Lottery..........it said I had won 1.5 million EUROS!!!
I was to send an email to get details of how to claim my prize
The telephone number given was 070 something and I am sure this was posted as a scam warning the other day
Anyone else had one of these emails sent to them????
Thoughts please......

Did you enter it??

nope lol
it said it was a random computer draw
my luck dont go like that and thought it was strange that it said i had won EUROS and not POUNDS

yeh thought it was anyway but it would have been nice wouldnt it????????
Would definitely have got you a beer!!!

yeah would be nice dowen

But with all these things, if they ain't willing to send you a cheque..then its a scam

YEAH!!..... I've won the Irish Lottery and I didn't even enter it
