There is no UK Annual email lottery. The get your bank account information and steal your money.

Scam, unless you actually entered the UK lottery.
To be sure, put "UK lottery" and "scam" together on the search line for some search engine. It's the best way to test any forwarded email or "you've won" message.

You haven't won squat. It's a scam. Did you even enter the UK lottery?? Wake up people!

Congratulations, you are a winner in my personal lottery scam. You have been selected to receive $20,000,000.
We just need your bank information to send you the money.
It is a scam. Millions of people got the same email.

I think it is cheating.I too received an e-mail from pepsi company that I have won one million pound.But for the last one month they are playing game with me without releasing the prize money.I don't know why a brand name like PEPSI makes us fools.If somebody is cheating us in the name of PEPSI,the company has a duty to catch the real culprit.Why YAHOO too plays into their hands.

Yeah! It's true! Wow! You won money and didn't even have to do anything! No catches! No strings attached! Yippee!!
And if you believe that one, I have some oceanfront property in Wyoming that I would be interested in selling you, now that you are rich. It's a great deal!

No its a scam. I just received the email today. Probably just a way to get information from you. Don't reply to it.

Read the fine print - it probably says you MAY have won, which means that you haven't won yet, and probably won't unless you enter the contest.
