IDK anything about the UK lottery....BUT...if you supposedly won why can't they just send you a check ?? there is no reason for them to ask you for a bank account #. i think your being scammed!


hharry_m_uk
If this isnt the official Camelot UK lottery and you didnt have to pay for a ticket then this is almost certainly a scam. They perpetrators are only wanting your bank details so that they can empty it or get a loan or overdraft in your name. The only other reason could be that they want to launder money..from drugs or whatever through your account. Be very careful!!!!


nick23
DON'T DO IT. I did and i lost over 3,000 dollars. it's a SCAM!!!!

Gee, I got two emails this week telling me that I'd won in this lottery too - each one said my winnings would be 600,000 British pounds. So thanks for asking this question - maybe the answers will let me know what I have to do to collect. ;-}

Hey, I'm serious about the two emails I got, but not about expecting to collect. They're scams. If you gave them personal info you're already on thin ice - don't make it worse!

Unless you entered a lottery with a registered government authorized lottery in the UK. You are possibly the world's newest identity theft receipient. They will try and use your bank account and personal details to rip you off. I would be extremely wary and end contact. Here are some hints about it being a scam:

*The emails are poorly worded or cite references that either do not exist or are out of date or simply do not have any relevance.
*Poor grammar (usually non-english speakers)
*If you do talk on the phone, odds are THEY called YOU because they don't want to be traced.
*Before they "pay" you your winnings they ask for you to prepay "taxes" or "fees" that must be incurred prior to them sending you the money - this is where they RIP YOU OFF.

Don't be stupid.

Also, as previously said:

EMPTY THAT ACCOUNT.

Odds are that if you have given them your personal details they are already on their way to draining it dry.

P.S. Why are people so stupid to think that the UK (or Nigeria, or a recently deceased millionaire with the same last name as you) randomly wants to give them money? Some people deserve to have their money stolen... no offense. :-)

ITS A SCAM.....If you already gave them your bank account number - hurry up and get your money out of that account.
Just leave it empty and see if they will deposit your "winnings"...
I bet they will NOT.


Frutticup
Phone your bank and freeze or empty your account immediately.

Also

If they gave you a telephone number to call don't call it, these are massively expensive premium rate numbers.

Report them immediately to the police. Close your bank account Now. Today. Read the websites below to get you out of the hole you've dug for yourself.

Here's the top ten ways to tell something is a scam:

10) The language used in your award letter was poor English.
9) You weren't given a cheque option. You always have the option to get a cheque.
8) The award asks you to contact a specific person.
7) It's not on official letterhead.
6) When you buy lottery tickets, you don't give an address - so how would they know where to send you the letter or email?
5) Most countries have no tax on lottery winnings, and the few that do withhold tax rather than ask you to pay it upfront.
4) When you Google Camelot (the national lottery of the UK), it's contact details are different from the ones you were given.
3) When you Google Camelot and check the winning numbers against your lottery ticket for that day, the numbers don't match. (But see the Number One reason below for further clarification.)
2) The phone numbers listed are premium rate calls or fake and the addresses, when entered into GoogleMaps, are also fake.

And the number one reason you should have known it was a scam:

1) You Didn't Buy A Ticket. How in the world did you think you could have won a lottery without buying a ticket?

This scam amazes me every time. I hope you survive this with no financial losses.

So I see you just joined, and this is your first question.

As others have said, this is a complete scam.
If you are a genuine winner, there is no question to ask.
You just check your lottry ticket numbers against the winning numbers, and you know.
Lotteries generally do not vcaontact people, you have to contact them.
They do not keep contact details for everyone who buys a ticket, so they cannot contact you.
Sorry to hear that you have already given out your personal details. Tell the bank what has happened, and they will put a double check on your account transactions for security.
