To have your winnings wired into your personal bank account, I would like to make clear to you that your cheque will be sent to our affiliate bank for transfer into your personal bank account. However, you will be requested to activate or open an account with them so that your cheque can clear into it for the transfer of your winning prize into your account in your country. The minimum amount that is required by the bank to open an account for non UK residents is not a fee of any sort as it will be added to your winnings when the transfer is been made since it is just an initial account opening balance. As soon as you activate your account with them, your pin number and your account number will be given to you and you will start the transfer of your winnings immediately. Note that this amount has to be provided by you to the bank through any method they deem fit before they can activate the account.

Regarding courier delivery, our affiliate courier company which is Greyhound Express Couriers is the only courier company registered with the UK National Lottery thus they are in charge of all delivery of parcel for winners of the UK National Lottery.
It is important to note that services rendered by this courier company are to be paid for by you and not the Lottery Board.

i've sent the filled up form. now i se, i have to buy my "winning amount". It's silly. Courier brings me a bag of money, i'm receiving all, i will pay all he needs, that is agreed! Other way, UK bank can depositt all lottery winnings for a name of a Winner for free! My Lithuanias bank will fee for a tranfear ofmoney, but ut's my business! And i decleear my incomes- its my busines to pay taxes!
Last year i've "won" NL wodafones 1000 000 eu, the same way- must buy ottorney for 800 5u...

I also recieved such an email and sent an answer to the sender(I haven't been replied yet).
Aparantly i have won seven hundred and fifty three thousand, four hundred, and thirty seven pound stirling.
However, the person who sent me the mail is Mr Ben Bruce (i doubt he really exists).
Does this "lotto" really exist, or is someone trying to scam me?
Kind regards
