I imagine the likelihood of having won millions online in a U.K. lottery is very low. Is this guy / " The Lottery Balls Limited " legit? Feel free to give me an earth-shaking, resounding DUH! if warranted. J $

Duh! No-one can improve your chances significantly of winning, not unless they drastically reduce the level of payout you expect.
For example if you join a syndicate of 100 people and buy a ticket each, your odds of winning a million have increased but your payout will be 100th of a million which is a 1000 quid - nice but not retirement stuff.
Once you've removed the idiot combinations such as 1,2,3,4,5,6 then you can statistically improve your chances of winning but in the UK lottery not enough to make it worth buying up all the good combinations.
Having said that... there are lotteries out there where it is worth buying up all the ticket combinations and there are syndicates that do just that. The Australian lottery is one of those.

DUH! Haha, No not legit. How can you win something you never entered? This is most likely a money laundering scam, they are becoming more common on internet now. If you want check out this site for lots of names and e-mail addresses of would-be launderers. Maybe Mr. David Johnson appears!
